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.
