Well it's hard to explain but I'll try if you let me
Well it's hard to sustain
I'll cry if you let me
This doesn't change the way I feel about you or your place in my life
(please don't cry)
Can't you see I'm dying here?
A shot of broken heart that is chased with fear
Angels cry when stars collide
I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/the_red_jumpsuit_apparatus/angels_cry.html ]
Intentions that were pure have turned obscure
Seconds into hours
Minutes into years
Don't ask me why
(please don't cry)
I can't tell you lies
Angels cry when stars collide
I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way.
[repeat]
My heart burns through
My chest to the floor
Tearing me silently although abruptly
Words can't hide as I'm taking you home
And I tried to see
Tried to understand your words as I'm taking you home
Angels cry when stars collide
I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way
[repeat]
I think he has cheated and he's trying to explain it to her. He can't lie and it hurts him just as much as its hurting her because he truly loves and cares for her. It was something that got out of hand. Good intentions turned obscure. (angels cry, when stars collide)they were soul mates, but the stars collided the minute he made that choice to cheat. Now the angels cry because something that was so perfect has been ruined

I think that this song is about maibe a best friend saying to him thatshe likes him but he dosent feel the same. He dosent want to see her hurt and dosent want to ruin there friendship ( this dosent change the way i feel about you our your place in my life, please dont cry) he is sad that he is making her hurt because of his response and he dosent feel to good eather ( can't you see im dying here, a shot of broken heart that is chased with fear). She is his angel and the star that collide are the words that he said to her.

I beleive this song is about how he's been broken in the past and is now wanting to be with this girl but can't becuz he's still to broken and scared to feel again "a shot of broken heart that is chased with fear" - he's scared to fall for her again and is still broken and when he talks about angels cry when stars collide he means angels cry when soul mates end up crashing and burning in the end ( don't work out).
I think this song was pertaining to the guy who was undergo a depression or something that bothers her... His gurl doesn't understand the situation... And she thought maybe that her guy was up into something!!!
I second joyceaquila on the meaning being dependent upon the person listening. This is what i interpret:
He's going through a depression, and his lover is trying to help. She feels she is doing something wrong, because she can't quite help. He tells her, "this doesn't change the way i feel about you or your place in my life. " he doesn't want his misery to affect her.
My girlfriend contemplated suicide before she met me. She's 19 and her parents are over-bearing and they dislike me because of my religion. They have "nightly" talks with her. When we had to break up, she contemplated suicide again. If it wasn't for her parents, all i've ever wanted wouldn't come with a price. I just want her to "live for me too", live life to the fullest. "cat and mouse"
what a perfect song
Various meanings and it depends upon the person who reads and sings the song...
For me, a couple who broke up despite the fact that they still love each other but were unable to patch things up... And decided to end the relationship.
