I know this song is actually about drug abuse, but the words say so much about what I want to feel as I suffer through depression. I want to be held, gently, and feel comforted and loved/
ANGEL - Sarah McLachlan
Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance,
for a break that would make it okay.
There's always some reason
to feel not good enough,
and it's hard, at the end of the day.
I need some distraction,
oh, beautiful release.
memories seep from my veins.
Let me be empty,
oh, and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight.
So tired of the straight line,
and everywhere you turn,
there's vultures and thieves at your back.
The storm keeps on twisting.
keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack.
It don't make no difference,
escape 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 here.
