Strange Angels
Strange Angels: A Tapestry of Life, Love, and Unexpected Moments
Lyrics
They say that heaven is like TV
Heaven is compared to TV, a perfect but distant world that may not involve or require the individual.
A perfect little world that doesn't really need you
Heaven, portrayed as an ideal world, doesn't necessarily depend on or include the person speaking.
And everything there is made of light
The suggestion that everything in heaven is made of light, emphasizing purity and brilliance.
And the days keep going by
Time continues to pass in the speaker's current reality.
Here they come
Repetition of "Here they come" suggests an imminent arrival or event.
Here they come
-Here they come.
-Well it was one of those days larger than life
Describes a chaotic day when friends visit, stay overnight, consume everything, and express intense emotions.
When your friends came to dinner and they stayed the night
-And then they cleaned out the refrigerator
-They ate everything in sight
-And then they stayed up in the living room
-And they cried all night
-Strange angels singing just for me
Mentions "Strange angels" singing for the speaker, old stories haunting, and a realization that reality differs from expectations.
Old stories they're haunting me
-This is nothing like I thought it would be.
-Well I was out in my four door with the top down.
Reflects on an experience in a convertible, observing teardrops and questioning what comes next in the vast sky.
And I looked up and there they were,
-Millions of tiny teardrops just sort of hanging there
-And I didn't know whether to laugh or cry
-And I said to myself, What next big sky?
-Strange angels singing just for me
Reiterates the presence of "Strange angels" singing, with spare change falling, and rain symbolizing change falling over the speaker.
Their spare change falls on top of me
-Rain falling
-Falling all over me
-All over me
Emphasizes the impact of change, echoing the theme of rain falling all over the speaker.
Strange angels singing just for me
Repeats the idea of "Strange angels" singing, haunting old stories, and the anticipation of significant changes.
Old Stories they're haunting me
-Big changes are coming
-Here they come
Concludes with the announcement of imminent big changes, reinforcing the sense of anticipation.
Here they come.
