Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
I heard a whisper that touched deep inside my soul
Like some familiar melody
A hidden chapter from a story left untold
I gotta feeling, I could believe in
[Chorus:]
There is an angel in my heart
Feels like I'm guided by a candle in the dark
Its taken all this time
To finally find out what I could never see
An angel in my heart
You were there for me
Now there is no doubt that there will always be
An angel in my heart
You were the friend, you were the one I could confide in
You gave me strength that I could never find
Deep emotions that's I've always been denying
I believe in, its so close now, its you that
I'm feeling
[Chorus]
Finally found what I been searching for
(all my life)
It was right before my eyes
Oh you are my angel
I know you'll always be there
You are my one and only angel
To finally found find what I could never see
(You were there for me)
Now there is no doubt that there will always be
An angel in my heart
Like some familiar melody
A hidden chapter from a story left untold
I gotta feeling, I could believe in
[Chorus:]
There is an angel in my heart
Feels like I'm guided by a candle in the dark
Its taken all this time
To finally find out what I could never see
An angel in my heart
You were there for me
Now there is no doubt that there will always be
An angel in my heart
You were the friend, you were the one I could confide in
You gave me strength that I could never find
Deep emotions that's I've always been denying
I believe in, its so close now, its you that
I'm feeling
[Chorus]
Finally found what I been searching for
(all my life)
It was right before my eyes
Oh you are my angel
I know you'll always be there
You are my one and only angel
To finally found find what I could never see
(You were there for me)
Now there is no doubt that there will always be
An angel in my heart

"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
I love this song.
