Within Temptation~ Angels ~lyrics

I do not own any of the music or lyrics, and this video is not made for profit, simply entertainment. Enjoy, guys!
(I apologize if the font/fading bg is difficult to read- here are the lyrics for those having trouble with reading them on the video)
Sparkling angel
I believed
You were my savior
In my time of need
Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
The warning's so clear
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus:]
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke the promise
And made me realize
It was all just a lie
Sparkling angel
I couldn't see
Your dark intentions
Your feelings for me
Fallen angel
Tell me why?
What is the reason,
The thorn in your eye?
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus]
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
This world may have failed you
It doesn't give the reason why
You could have chosen
A different path of life
The smile when you tore me apart
[Chorus:]
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realize
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end

Is this Lloyd from ninjago singing to harumi

[@Ax_Alejandro09]

She sounds like an angel👍🏻

[@zelenahull]

This song really does portray the type of evil that lives under the skin. Much of the time people lie to keep up appearances. It's amazing how many people do this, and I often see it, which is very sad that people do this and sometimes have to live upon a life built on lies.

[@SakuraAvalon]

I agree with that. Mind you, my parents are like that, though, they tried to hide it

a trick: you can watch series at Flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies recently.

[@joshuaidris9312]

@Raul Zeke Yea, been using Flixzone for since november myself :)

[@Ms4everMyself]

I can't help but think of Christine from Phantom of the Opera and think that this describes how she sees Erik and how her image of him progresses and changes through the entire book and musical.

[@VictoriousQueen3]

I can definitely see that.

[@5applepie]

Omg! I never though of it that way! But yes that makes so much sense.

[@yuridianajimenez2071]

[@LadySash]

Exactly what I thought when I hear this song...honestly perfect for Phantom of the opera. 💕

[@madisoncastle5138]

Yeah!

[@sairajdas6692]

I can't describe how beautiful this song is!

[@noemi_cajal]

Her voice God! Amazing!

[@athenabermudez7595]

honestly this song will always be one of my favorites. it was one of the first songs i ever heard on youtube back in 2005 and its been such a favorite of mine ever since. i never get tired of it, its just that good

[@kaelanmcalpine2011]

I was introduced to this song as a child, say around 7 or 8 years old, so this brings me a lot of nostalgia and warm feelings coming back to listen to this song again. Meanwhile, it also helps to remind me of the people who lied to me and tried to be nice to me and eventually won a battle leaving to have doors literally and figuratively slammed in my face telling me I can't even go back to the school I once did in my freshman year and that I can't even see my real friends that still would've decided to stick by me regardless of that. I'm better now, hopefully, now that I'm a sophomore and hopefully no one backstabs me, at least to that big of an extent, ever again for the remainder of not only my high school life, but the rest of my life in general. If nothing else, I got to see alot of my old friends in my freshman year once again for my school's homecoming parade and I was excited because of that, and it might have been the best night of my life so far, even more than my freshman homecoming or when I got to see Nightwish/Sabaton/Delain and Overkill/Symphony X in concerts.

[@tfox1231]

this reminds me of my ex. Been lying to me for months before it ended. I honestly don't know if she ever felt for me. I'm saying people should read this and hate her. She has been through some stuff. I tried helping but she pushed me away and she got consumed by that darkness.

[@jessicasimplicioreis3824]

As a fallen angel it must be pretty bad for someone to lead your angry brothers to your door.

[@davonblav3798]

Ye it is

[@nightmelody777hiatus2]

haha^^

[@andrewc6778]

Oh boy, lemme tell you, it is So Bad. Like come on man, that’s just a dick move.

[@riannaroberts4769]

The "fallen angel" in this song is a murderer who kidnapped vulnerable women and would kill them. The music video for this song shows this by having a hitch hiking woman get picked up by a man. He is nice and she trusts him. He's charmed her, so she thinks of him as an angel helping her in her time of need. But then he kills her, and her ghost brought back real angels to his door to get revenge.

[@jadehulse9535]

I remember being 12 listening to this and not having been in a relationship but feeling betrayed and stomped on

[@strawberrylemonadelioness]

I remembered this song out of the blue and now I just want to listen to it on repeat.

“You took my heart deceived me right from the start” is mine

[@loreeeeeeeena]

Her voice is amazing ! I love her !

[@Ziffelzoovop]

This was one of the first songs to make me fall in love with Within Temptation. I haven't been able to listen to this song at all in the past 7 years because of how true it rang for the situation I was in with an abuser in my life. But for the first time I've been able to get through this beautiful song again like what was done never happened. So glad to have this song back.

[@TheFallenangelone]

The smile when you tore me apart ... was the moment i accepted ... a life for a life in a lie .... My fallen Angel .....

Angel Shining angel Sent from above You were my savior The one that I loved You were perfection To my humble eyes Enthralled by your beauty Decieved by your lies I see the angels Have fallen from the sky With shattered wings I watched you try to fly A single tear falls From my ice blue eyes but... You smiled when you tore me apart You took my hand Killed every dream that I had You showed me love I wish it all was for real You broke my heart And now I realize That your love is a lie Radiant angel Brought peace to my heart But now your darkness It rips you apart Fallen angel Such beauty and grace How could your eyes Be filled with such hate I see the angels Have fallen from the sky With shattered wings I watched you try to fly A single tear falls From my ice blue eyes but... You smiled when you tore me apart You took my hand Killed every dream that I had You showed me love I wish it all was for real You broke my heart And now I realize That your love is a lie Distant angel Fading away Left on your own now With nothing to say Beloved angel We had it all But you left me broken And I watched you fall... What it means to me.....

[@Stickbrush]

Within Temptation themselves have said the song is about a person that offers himself/herself to solve a problem, but that intentionally makes it even worse. In some way, you're right.

[@darthbob25]

[@katerinaaqu]

That's great to hear. It is rare for the voice to stay high even after puberty even for women. The really high sopranos and coloraturas are rare 😊 I myself started off as mezzo soprano and nowadays I am training as actual soprano. I can get the low notes and the quite low notes but I can also get this song but I bet that my voice to it won't be the same as yours 😋

[@mikehughes17]

This song was very beautifully written and composed everything about this song is perfection

[@fabiank4396]

[@Firedog-65]

The piano melody starting at 2:30 and repeated at the end is from the theme of the 1979 horror movie Phantasm, they made it fit into this song so well.

Before assuming read the truth than come back and teach something about Satan and Jesus Christ

This makes me think of a Stucky fanfic. Bucky spends weeks making Steve think he’s changed, that the winter soldier loved his captain. Steve takes Bucky to meet the avengers and bring him into the team. However, he isn’t as fixed as Steve wants to think. Cap realizes this too late after he brings Bucky into stark tower. Bucky gets what he needs, but not after having to destroy any hope whatsoever that the old Buck is alive. And it tears Steve to bits to know that Bucky lied to him, that his friend isn’t still in there.
