I think he's singing of the life/woman of his dreams in an ideal sense. He doesn't want to settle for mediocrity but he also realizes his expectations aren't reality and could never happen how he imagines it. In his own hypcocrisy he cannot reconcile the two.

| Seven Mary Three – Houdini's Angels Lyrics | 18 years ago |

From an interview with Jason Ross: What is 'Houdini's Angels' about? R: 'Houdini's Angels' is a painting that my friend did, which I named. The painting was of 2 angels standing over a man and the reality of it being, the songs is the discussion between Houdini and his angels and he was a good publicist and I wonder why he didn't just get sick of it all and give up. In 'Houdini's Angels' you talk of people getting tired of themselves, what's 'a genius in a cushion on your couch?' R: You gotta go seek and find knowledge and truth and seek love. You are not gonna find it sitting on your couch watching t.v. |
