    1- This song is about one man who is in love and he is trying to conquer her becuase he thought that she algo felt something with him.
    2- Because he is trying to get her and he imagines things that are lie like that she is also trying to get him, because of that he is losing his head.
    3- I think that he is crazy. The angels are the moments when he is imagine that she loves him and the moment when the angels fall to the ground is the moment when he know that everything is a lie.
    4- because he sees that everything is a lie. He sees that she isn't trying anything with him and that everything is imagination of his head.

    1.-this song is about a man who thinks falling in love is like losing his religion. and that can not allow it.
    2.-because every time he thinks about her or imagines he feels he loses his religion.
    3'-I believe that the angels are a means to escape or to reach her.
    4'-it is a dream everything he imagines about it. hear her singing or laughing

    1-If I´m honest I think this song shows a man who really loves someone but there are diffciculties trying to be together with his lover.

    2-Because of love, he is going very far away from religion, he has just felt a new strange attraction.

    3-Maybe these angels represent that this poor man is hurting or they might mean that love is harmless because one of the angels appears with arrows but he isn´t suffering.

    4-It seems he has made up everything and that everything comes from his imagination and it´s likely he will believe again in religion
