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 through my veins
let me be empty
oh and weightless then 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
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 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

[中譯]

用所有的時間等待，第二次機會，
那可能讓一切都沒事的解脫，
總是那麼個理由，讓人絕得美中不足，
而在一天結束之時特別難熬。
我必須讓自己分心，
喔！美好的釋放，
記憶從我血管滲出，讓我霎時一空，
喔！重量頓失而且也許，
我今晚將會找到些許的平靜。
在天使的臂彎中，
飛離此處，飛離這黑暗冰冷的旅館房間，
和你所懼怕的那種永無止境。
你被拉返回來，
在無聲的夢幻殘害中，你在天使的臂彎中，
或許會找到一些慰藉。
厭倦了一成不變的直線生活，
不管你跳到哪裡，
總有禿鷹與竊賊在你身後，
暴風雨持續飆卷，
而你繼續堆砌謊言，
用來掩飾你欠缺的一切。
但那於事無補，
再逃開最後一次，這樣會比較容易相信，
這甜蜜的瘋狂，喔！這輝煌的哀傷，
讓我深深臣服。你在天使的臂彎中，
或許會找到一些慰藉。
