Angeles

The song 'Angeles' by Kidd Voodoo is a poignant reflection on love lost and the lingering pain of a past relationship. The lyrics speak to the intensity of a former romance, characterized by 'fire, madness, and passion,' suggesting a relationship that was once deeply consuming and vibrant. The mention of a 'path without faith' and a 'sweet song' filled with memories indicates a nostalgic yearning for what has been left behind. The artist expresses regret and a sense of betrayal, as the words of the loved one have become incomprehensible, likened to crystal—beautiful yet cold and hard.

The chorus introduces the metaphor of 'angels that burn when thinking,' which could symbolize the pain and torment of remembering the past love. The difficulty in starting anew and the hurt caused by the partner's words highlight the struggle to move on. Despite the desire to reconnect, as expressed in the lines 'Oh, baby, tell me if I call you, don't lie to me / I miss you too,' there is a recognition that the relationship is over and cannot be reclaimed. The repeated line 'Before you were mine and no more' drives home the finality of the separation.

The verses also touch on self-destructive behavior as a means to cope with the loss, with references to 'walking in excess alcohol' and 'crashing into the wall.' The artist conveys the difficulty of overcoming the attachment to the former lover, acknowledging that no one else compares and that the process of healing and moving on is a long and challenging one. The song ends with a longing to see the loved one again, despite the acknowledgment that the relationship is over, illustrating the complex emotions involved in letting go of a significant connection.
