If God Could Make the Angels
Angelic Reflections on Life's Broken Melodies
Lyrics
So many songs about angels
Reflection on the abundance of songs dedicated to angels.
It seems God makes 'em with his hands
Suggesting that angels are created by God's hands.
So I guess this mess of falling angels
Speculation on the purpose of angels falling, aligning with divine plans.
Must fit his immortal plans
Implying that fallen angels contribute to God's eternal design.
How every flower should open
Expressing a universal expectation for beauty to unfold.
How every crippled bird should fly
Conveying the desire for every challenged entity to overcome difficulties.
And a cry of love from the deepest darkest oceans
Describing a profound declaration of love emerging from the deepest places.
Flies up through his brightest broken skies
Suggesting that love transcends even the most shattered aspects of existence.
I can't point no fingers
Rejecting the act of blaming others.
You can't do nothing more to me
Asserting personal resilience despite challenges.
See here's my broken hammer
Presenting a broken tool as a metaphor for personal struggles.
(Can't play my A flat)
Expressing a limitation in playing a specific musical note.
But I'm still playin' in that key
Continuing to engage with life despite difficulties.
And in the holy saint's asylum
Introducing a setting resembling a sanctuary for troubled individuals.
There's this patron for lost souls
Identifying a protector for those who feel lost or abandoned.
Who've perjured grail for money
Reference to betrayal of sacred principles for material gain.
Mammon's kingdom and his power
Linking the pursuit of wealth to Mammon's influence and authority.
All is painted glory
Depicting a glorified facade covering the reality of earthly pursuits.
Oh yeah glory holds a key
Highlighting the significance of glory in this context.
But here's this broken hammer (can't fix this old piano)
Repeating the metaphor of a broken hammer, emphasizing persistent challenges.
Seems sometimes you can't get enough of me hurting
Acknowledging the inevitability of enduring pain.
As the hammer hits the key
Connecting the act of playing music with personal suffering.
But if God could make them angels
Contemplating the hypothetical creation of angels from earthly elements.
With only mud and dust and sand
Reflecting on the symbolic use of mud, dust, and sand in angelic creation.
Making blood from living water
Imagining a profound transformation from water to blood.
Man, I think I'd understand
Expressing a desire for deeper understanding if such transformations were possible.
He'd be in every flower that opens
Envisioning God's presence in the opening of every flower.
He'd be the first new breath of spring
Associating God with the renewal of life in spring.
In the bird song high in the skies sailing clear across
Connecting God's essence to the melodies of birds crossing oceans.
the oceans
Highlighting the universality of perceiving God's voice in various sounds.
Some hear his voice in every bell that rings
Expanding the notion of hearing God in the ringing of bells.
They say it's God who made the angels
Questioning the conventional belief in God as the creator of angels.
From infinity and sand
Challenging the origin of angels, proposing infinity and sand as alternatives.
But if Heaven made the angels
Pondering the creator of humans if angels are made by Heaven.
Who in hell made man?
Raising a provocative question about the origin of humanity.
If God could make angels
Reiterating the hypothetical scenario of God creating angels.
If God could make angels
Repeating the contemplation of God making angels.
Why in hell make man?
Persisting in the questioning of why humans were created, given the previous discussion on angels.
