Wednesday's Woe - In the Arms of an Angel

I can't seem to get this song out of my mind after listening to it a few days ago; it is haunting and moving. As it so moved me in my grief, may it touch your grieving heart as well...

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...


In the arms of the 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...


So tired of the straight line,
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back--
And the storm keeps on twisting,
You 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 the 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.


You're In the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here.
