~ANGEL~
by Sarah McLachlan

Spend all your time
waiting for that second chance
For the break that will make it OK
There's always some reason
to feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
or a beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the Angel far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room,
and the endlessness that you feel
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,
you keep on building the lies
That 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 far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room,
and the endlessness that you feel
You are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the Angel;
may you find some comfort here

In the arms of the Angel;
may you find some comfort here

~THE CHOICE~
by Dora Hagemeyer

Two angels stood with dawn beside my bed,
One bearing joy-the very topmost fruit;
The other pain, the bitter draught new-bled
From the same tree, but from the deepest root;

Two equal angels offering me their gifts--
And I bewildered, blind as from the sun,
Reach forth for both.  The veil of vision lifts,
And lo, within my hand the two are one!

Music:  Arms of an Angel
by Sarah McLachlan
City of Angels Soundtrack

Please note that it has been brought to my attention
that the song by Ms. McLachlan is not about Angels
(in heaven).  We all interpret music in our own way.
I prefer to think of the song in a heavenly manner.
