Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There’s always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I’ll find some peace tonight
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
Consonance is used in the third line with a "k" sound and the words "break", "make", and "okay".
Assonance is used in the tenth line with the long "e" and the words "me be", and the short "e" and the words "let" and "empty".
Consonance is used in the last line of the chorus with an "m" sound in the words "comfort" and "some".
Consonance is used in the last line of the second verse with the ending "s" sound and the words "glorious sadness".
Assonance is used in the third line of the chorus with a long "o" sound and the words "cold" and "hotel".
I think this song is about letting go of all of the burdens in your life. Sometimes you feel like life has put you in over your head, but you have to find a way to let go of those thoughts and be happy and at peace with yourself.
