I need a sign to let me know you're here
All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere
I need to know that things are gonna look up
'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup
When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head
When you feel the world shake from the words that are said
[Chorus:]
And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels
I won't give up if you don't give up [Reapeat x4] [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/train/calling_all_angels.html ]
I need a sign to let me know you're here
'Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clear
I want a reason for the way things have to be
I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me
[Chorus]
When children have to play inside so they don't disappear
And private eyes solve marriage lies cause we don't talk for years
And football teams are kissing Queens
And losing sight of having dreams
In a world that what we want is only what we want until it's ours
This song is about losing faith... Or trying to find it. When all hope for the world is lost, when everything seems like it's going to hell, you search for something somewhere-any strand of hope-for things to be set right. It's the truth of the world, the sad, sad truth, that some people can't accept. Someone somewhere has lost all hop, and they live in a world of agony and pain. But there will always be hope.
He doesn't understand where god is. The world is so messed up and he wants to know if anyone is looking out for the people down here hense the words "calling all angels". God has not abandoned this world. Evil is present for a time because man chose to sin in the garden but it will not always be this way. He has made a way for us to be reconciled to him. All we have to do is ask him!
The song means so much to me because i lost my 20 year old son to cancer last year. He was my best friend and i know he is a angel and i need for him to let me know thing gonna look up and this pain will go away
