My impression during first listen:

I really like the wary sounds during the intro.

I can tell this is a song to really listen to.

It sounds kind of like a lament.

A funeral song. A song with a video that shows the evil in the world. It almost feels... Christmassy... terrible description but I love the vibe it's giving.

Oh my gosh the lyrics :giveup:   

Those haunting noises woven through it.

"Why do people just stand around?"  this is hitting me in the heart :S

Her high notes. She sounds like a creature singing out in sadness. I'm so bad at describing what I mean.

"Where are our leaders?!" :giveup: 

There's such a darkness to this song and I really love it. The only experimental song on the album and I love it a lot. It is very reminiscent of a horror movie. But the twinkling, music-box sounds mixed in lighten it a bit. I already know a lot of people will hate this song but I really like how it turned out.

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

Honestly I was surprised!

The intro omG! It's like the music is crying!  

The production and the lyrics are flawless! And the last part was everything! It made me cry.

The song has a strong message. When I listen to it, I imagine all the shooting and bombs and the victims. At the end of song (see the angel catch the angel) I imagine an innocent kid, who's amibition and has big dreams,  crying and  gavin up  on everything, waiting to be shut down... and then the song stops cutting the last word, last breath! 

The last few seconds also bring me back to my cute childhood but making me compare it with the childhood of poor kids who's surviving wars...

I just listened to this song again, thinking about the shooting and chaos that have been happening, and I just started crying. This is sounsual. I think this song is incredible. I'm at a loss for words. Oh my god.

 "shots were fired, on the street, by the church where we used to meet. Angel down. Angel down. why do people just stand around?"

"I'm a believer, it's chaos, where are our leaders? I'd rather save an angel down"

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

LYRICS:

 

  Hide contents

I confess I am lost
In the age of the social
On our knees
Take a test
To be lovin' and grateful

Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
But the people just stood around

I'm a believer
It's a trial
Foolish and weaker
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer
It's chaos
Where are our leaders?
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down

Doesn't everyone belong
In the arms of the sacred
Why do we pretend we're wrong?
Has our young courage faded?

Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
Why do people just stood around?

I'm a believer
It's a trial
Foolish and weaker
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer
It's chaos
Where are our leaders?
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

I'm a believer
It's a trial
Foolish and weaker
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down
Ohhh
I'm a believer
It's chaos
Where are our leaders?
Oh-oh-oh
I'd rather save an angel down

Save that angel
Catch that angel
Catch that angel
Catch that angel

The ending is everything. :diane:

What ARE those otherworldly chords at the very end??! They sound like a vocal sample pitched way the hell down.

could we meet sometime this summer // shine on me your crimson colors // james lover lover lover lover lover lover

I love this song so much.
It's hauntingly beautiful, musically kinda eerie/creepy even and the lyrics are kind of like a prayer (Not the Madonna song, please don't murder me) or a desperate dirge. 

And I might be late on the track, but is this the song everyone called 'Chaos Angel' ?
I mean, it makes sense, doesn't it? But maybe my brain is just overtired from depression related insomnia.

I feel like I really missed haunting songs like this that has a message, that can be interpreted a million ways cause the lyrics are poetry, and it's sad but it's rare these days in 2016 to have a well written song that means something

Her best ballad. It's so haunting. I love the like sounds at the end that sound like a lullaby. It kinda gives me a really faint Melanie Martinez vibe at the end with those sounds (instrumental wise).

Her best ballad! Everything about this song gives me chills. It's so beautiful yet haunting. I just... I can't, I love it so much. It's a beautiful ending to a beautiful album.
