The song speaks of love and how it is so easily corrupted, and the pain resulting there from. “I wish I had your angel” - I wish I had your innocence, as mine has been destroyed by lust and dark thoughts. The innate self centeredness of my human nature burns innocence (angel wings) to dust. It corrupts goodness. It destroys beauty. The inability to escape the human condition. The song reflects the complex emotions that plague humanity. It’s painful to be human.

The song was also used as soundtrack in the film ‘Alone In The Dark’, 2004.
