Track 11: Willy

Angesl by Within Temptation

Sparkling angel

I believe

You are my saviour

In my time of need

Blinded by faith

I couldn't hear

All the whispers

The warning's so clear

I see the angels

I'll lead them to your door

There is no escape now

Now mercy no more

No remorse 'cause I still remember

The smile when you tore me apart

You took my heart

Deceived me right from the start

You showed me dreams

I wished they'd turn to real

You broke the promise

And made me realise

It was all just a lie

Sparkling angel

Couldn't see

Your dark intentions

Your feelings for me

Fallen angel

Tell me why?

What is the reason?

The thorn in your eye

I see the angels

I'll lead them to your door

There is no escape now

No mercy no more

No remorse 'cause I still remember

The smile when you tore me apart

Could have been forever

Now we have reached the end

This world may have failed you

It doesn't give the reason why

You could have chosen

A different path of life

The smile when you tore me apart

You took my heart

Deceived me right from the start

You showed me dreams

I wished they'd turn in to real

You broke a promise

And made me realise

It was all just a lie

Could have been forever

Now we have reached the end

Although the title of this song my be misleading, it is a song about betrayal. The song is a message to someone who came under the disguise of a friend, who lied and then betrayed the singer.  There are several lines that stick out to me and are the main reason why i chose this song. "Deceived me right from the start/

You showed me dreams/I wished they'd turn to real/You broke the promise/And made me realize

/it was all just a lie" and " Sparkling Angel/Couldn't See/your dark intentions." Willy came as a beacon of hope for Walter. Willy brought a way for Walter's dream of becoming something ans supporting his family to become a reality. Then he took off and left Walter without a second thought, ripping his dreams to shreds.
