Fallen Angels

It seems to me like he sees those who have come before him in the rock industry and failed, and is worried about the same thing happening to himself.

... the songs about trying so hard to do something and falling short.

I agree with cactus and just to add, it also seems with one line he's dismantling the belief that we must know every detail about our celebrities instead of knowing what they do and appreciating that.

Before the lines -My eyes don't see the obvious There's way too far to go Forget about the rest of me There's nothing left to know- There are some words which i cannot understand, they say "I can hear you ____" along with many more I cans then words i cannot understand, does anyone know what the lyrics for this part are?

This is a tribute to the obscure game Eternal Darkness. The monologue in the beginning of the song is a direct excerpt. If you're still not convinced, play the game. ;p

Maybe he actually sees fallen angels (demons)that are scheming to take his life and his soul.

The first verse is a mystery to me. The chorus is so eerie, I love it. But anyway, I know this isn't really what it's about but it's my own interpretation: A lot of times, when someone does something terrible, it haunts them in their dreams, or they have trouble sleeping. My idea is that the writer sees all of his sins (I use 'sins' to go along with the religious connotation of 'angels') in his sleep and he feels very guilty that he has done something so terrible, slain something so pure. He is now worried that he will pay for his wrongs and will never be able to leave them behind. Silently preparing what they'll do to me is how his wrongs are surrounding him, closing in. The second verse is about how he can't hide from what he is done any longer.
Well, there are some holes I suppose, but I'd like to know what you think!

To me this song has great meaning although I see it far differently then the rest. My late friend and I last listened to this in his jeep. He later committed suicide.

To me this song is about loss of a loved one. The first part of the song "My eyes don't see the oblivious, its way too far to go" I feel that means we don't see the symptoms of your friends depression as you're only living in the moment "Its way to far to go" the future. The verse is getting deeper in the aftermath of the loss and dealing with quilt for not seeing it. Hence seeing fallen angels when you're trying to sleep. The end of the chorus gets into the "silently preparing" is a reference to how you feel they now view you for not being there and dealing with your guilt. Moving further the "You see, I'm kinda paranoid My luck, it seems to have run out So I will point the finger now Beyond the shadow of a doubt" This part gets into being paranoid as to if they wished you helped and the part of guilt where you point your finger at the others who didn't.

So this song as a whole I feel is talking about his late friends death and how he failed to see it coming nor could stop it. Living in the moment creates amazing memories but after a loss it blurs the lines and creates guilt. It brings chills to my spine that this was the last song I remember hearing with my friend.
