The road is long and hard
There’s days when I’m not there
Because I’m giving all I am to someone else
The nights are getting cold
I know that you don’t care
I’m sending out this song
It’s my hope and prayer
Take these words to your grave
Will you hear what I have to say
CHORUS:
There’s nothing left and there’s nowhere to hide
There’s days you feel like the sun won’t rise
But there’s nothing on your face
Just the pain of memories
When all the walls you build fall down
The mirror’s black, there’s no one around
And I’ll be there till the angels take your place
As the fire slowly burns
And oh the lessons learned
Is solitary the way
really worth it in the end
the smiles are always fake
how much more will it take
till we find a place and a way,
a way to start again
Take these words to your grave
Will you hear what I have to say
CHORUS:
There’s nothing left and there’s nowhere to hide
There’s days you feel like the sun won’t rise
But there’s nothing on your face
Just the pain of memories
When all the walls you build fall down
The mirror’s black, there’s no one around
And I’ll be there till the angels take your place
I’ll give it back if you give it to me
Cuz theres’ nothing left for me to be
I’ll take it back if you take it away
Cuz I’ll find the words to say today
CHORUS:
There’s nothing left and there’s nowhere to hide
There’s days you feel like the sun won’t rise
But there’s nothing on your face
Just the pain of memories
When all the walls you build fall down
The mirror’s black, there’s no one around
And I’ll be there till the angels take your place
Your place… your place…
I’ll give it back if you gave it to me
I’ll take it back if you take it away
When all the walls you build fall down
The mirror’s black, there’s no one around
And I’ll be there till the angels take your place
I think ‘Angels’ is about how people respond to life’s hardships and the importance of remaining committed to those we love, even during their darkest moments. The lyrics explore themes of sacrifice, loneliness, reflection, heartbreak, hope, and perseverance. The narrator acknowledges that life is filled with difficult roads, emotional struggles, and moments when people feel broken, but also promises unwavering support until the very end. Ultimately, the song suggests that adversity shapes us, strengthens our resilience, and reminds us that no one should have to face life’s greatest challenges alone.
