Lyrics
Angels mourn crying, praying for your soul
Angels mourn, crying, praying for the soul of the subject.
As my eyes open from their state of sleep I feel my blood
Upon awakening, the narrator senses a profound change in their blood.
Turn into a frozen river
The emotional state is described as a frozen river.
Nightmares so close death was in the air
Nightmares were so intense that death seemed imminent.
My heart locked shut, and I gave you the key
The narrator's heart is closed, but they gave someone the key.
Promise never to leave
A promise is made never to leave.
As lies hold me emptiness fills my broken heart
Lies surround the narrator, and emptiness fills their broken heart.
Screaming your name hoping for a response, silence summer
Screaming the loved one's name, seeking a response in the silence of summer.
Drowned by winter
Emotional emptiness persists despite the changing seasons.
To look in your face and realized the time we spent the chances I
Realization that time spent and opportunities have slipped away.
Had have drifted away from my fingertips
The narrator's chances have drifted beyond reach.
Your life, your thoughts, your dreams, your love
Various aspects of the loved one are enumerated: life, thoughts, dreams, and love.
Never tried my hardest and now I cray as the hurt enters
Regret for not trying hard enough, leading to the entry of hurt.
I love you and I still love you
Expression of love despite the lack of demonstration.
Even though I never showed it
An admission that a part of the narrator is forever lost.
A piece of me is gone forever
Clutching memories that are held close.
Clutching memories held so close
Repeating words of love, spoken too late.
Repeating words of love spoken to late
The narrator's eyes focus only on the loved one.
My eyes look all around but all they can focus on is you
Self-discovery in the loved one, a reflection of the narrator.
For in you I find me
The persistent impact of death on the narrator.
Days past by and thy death still lingers
The coldness of the emotional state is unsatisfying.
This coldness will never satisfy me
Desire to be in a warm place surrounded by angels.
I want to be surrounded by angels in a place
An idealized place with a warm sun burning inside.
Where the sun is so warm it burns my insides
Longing to be surrounded by angels for comfort.
Surrounded by angels
A wish for love to alleviate deep depression.
Where love takes my darkest depressions
A plea to Jesus for emotional healing and transformation.
And throws it into the deepest of sea
A declaration that Jesus is all the narrator has now.
A place I can call home, I'm crying to you Jesus
The narrator's focus remains on the loved one.
Mend me, break me, make me
Self-discovery and identity found in the loved one.
You're all I've got now
A farewell to a friend whose time has come.
My eyes look all around but all they can focus on is you
The inability to express love again due to the friend's departure.
For in you I find me
Reiteration of finding oneself in the loved one.
Arewell my friend your time has come
A final farewell to the departing friend.
And never will I be able to tell you I love you again..
A lamentation that expressing love is no longer possible.
