Fallen Angels---- BVB

Song:

Scream, shout
Scream, shout,
We are the fallen angels

We are the in between, cast down as sons of war
Struck to the earth like lightning, on this world we're torn
We won't cause the pain, of living out their law
Take joy in who you are, we know our wings are flawed

We're bored to death in heaven
And all alone in hell
We only want to be ourselves

We scream (we scream), we shout (we shout)
We are the fallen angels
We scream (we scream), we shout
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

To those who sing alone, no need to feel the sorrow,
We scream (We scream) we shout whoa,
We are the fallen angels

Follow the mourning star, a light when darkness fell
The passion left unholy, now you find yourself,
We have nowhere to go, no one to wish us well,
A cry to find our home, our stories they will tell

We're bored to death in heaven
And all alone in hell
We only want to be ourselves

We scream (we scream), we shout (we shout)
We are the fallen angels
We scream (we scream)
We shout, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh,

To those who sing alone, no need to feel the sorrow,
We scream (we scream) we shout whoa,
We are the fallen angels

[Instrumental]

Scream, shout, we are the fallen angels
Scream, shout, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

We scream (we scream), we shout (we shout)
We are the fallen angels
We scream (we scream), we shout, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

To those who sing alone, no need to feel the sorrow,
We scream (we scream), we shout whoa,
We are the fallen angels

We scream, we shout, we are the fallen angels,
We scream, we shout, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh,
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
We shout whoa, we are the fallen angels




Feeling:

     In the first verse when it's mentioned:

We are the in between, cast down as sons of war
Struck to the earth like lightning, on this world we're torn
We won't cause the pain, of living out their law
Take joy in who you are, we know our wings are flawed

     It's basically, we're not all perfect or well off. War is a plaguing aspect of everyday life. The second part of the first line "Cast down as sons of war" verifies such aspects of it all. Then when the lyrics go to the next lines, it shows how it's like living without being entirely "holy" or entirely "demonic" in the eyes of some people. I know that some people would think so but in my mind, we are not classified as just all "holy" or "demonic". In my thoughts, if you commit acts of kindness, you get a pardon to heaven, but if you acts of cruelty, you get a pardon to the underworld or some may say, hell. The last line: "Take joy in who you are, we know our wings are flawed" basically is saying one simple thing. It's saying one thing: "You're perfect with who you are. You know that your not entirely perfect and your wings are flawed, but it's not entirely the end of the world.

     Then again the song goes into greater detail..... let's dive deeper in the next verse:

We're bored to death in heaven
And all alone in hell
We only want to be ourselves

     Basically, like I was saying in the previous verse description, We're not entirely "holy" like in the first line and obviously has a bigger meaning to it. Of course, it was also basically another way of saying the same thing that all good motivational speakers tell you on the subject, "be yourself and you'll never be lead astray. Just follow your heart and you'll never be wrong". Some may think that they are all alone in the world alone, but it's only the person that thinks it that is really walking alone.

     I personally think that people have no hope but there is always a hope that is hidden.... you just need to find it:

Follow the mourning star, a light when darkness fell
The passion left unholy, now you find yourself,
We have nowhere to go, no one to wish us well,
A cry to find our home, our stories they will tell
     Basically, like this whole song is saying, follow who you truly are. You can't be someone else but yourself. Like the first line of this verse, "follow the morning star, a light when darkness fell". It's basically saying, with the darkness around you, follow the purest light that is in existence to show you who you are. If you don't follow that light in your soul to where you are to be, doubt will set in like a demon that is leading you on the wrong path. Even though nobody knows the truth, they won't be able to wish you well regardless. The pain from rejection and regret eats at you alive and nobody would care. We try to find were we will call home, but we have no hope..... But our stories would be told too late for our tastes.... the pain eats at us.

     Nobody would understand us. But those that do have no fear to be seen with us:

To those who sing alone, no need to feel the sorrow,
We scream (we scream), we shout whoa,
We are the fallen angels
    Some actually don't have those around us that will want to be seen to sing with the "outcasts" or the "emo" kids. But honestly, they're are just like everyone else. They have ambitions and wants too. I know how it feels because I was mistaken for one of those kids that dressed in all black. They have no shame in singing alone or doing anything alone. The pain gets to them, of course but it's to the point where they don't give a shit about it anymore. They're the angels that have fallen from heaven and such like the very first official verse of the song just seconds in the song...... When I first heard this song, my eyes opened..... my mind couldn't help but to grasp the thoughts and the message of the song. I'm so glad that I did.

     I personally think this is one of the best songs by Black Veil Brides. Andy Biserck did really well.
