Rainbow Wings
Unveiling Deception: Eagle-Eye Cherry's Rainbow Wings
Lyrics
I met the devil in disguise
I encountered deception personified as the devil
With his rainbow wings and a pack of lies
The devil appeared with deceptive charm and false promises
I had my suspicions but they were ignored
I had suspicions about the deception, but I chose to overlook them
Far away the angel cries
In a distant place, an angel is experiencing sorrow
How far away the angel sings
The angel is singing from a distant location
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
A warning not to sacrifice one's integrity for false promises
Don´t sell your soul
An emphasis on not compromising one's moral values
I watched him preach from the book of greed
Observing the devil preaching about greed
With promises of glory and how we´ll succeed
The devil makes promises of success through unethical means
I had my suspicions but they were ignored
Similar to line 3, suspicions are present but dismissed
Far away the angel cries
Another mention of the angel in a distant place, expressing sadness
How far away the angel sings
The angel continues to sing from afar
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
Reiterating the caution against compromising one's soul for lies
Don´t sell your soul
Reiteration of the importance of preserving one's integrity
Far away the angel cries
Once again, the angel is depicted as experiencing sorrow from a distance
How far away the angel sings
The angel's song continues to echo from afar
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
A final warning against sacrificing one's soul for falsehoods
Don´t sell your soul
A reiterated emphasis on not compromising one's integrity and values
