The Salvation Of Angels, A Raw Cityscape on Canvas

by Laura Barbosa in All About Art
     
Inspired from the lyrics by Robbie Williams and the song called: “Angels” This artwork encompasses all that haunts me about love, questions me about angels and lures me towards fantastical relationships with mystical beings. In the heart of the raw city, there is life, in the heart of all of us there is LOVE. But the question is, are you afraid to give yourself to someone? Are you only hoping for miracles?  Would you rather LOVE Angels Instead?
 
One of my most haunting pieces that comes right from my soul.
“The Salvation Of Angels”
 
I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we’re grey and old
‘cos I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I’m lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel the love is dead
I’m loving angels instead
 
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I’m right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won’t break me
When I come to call she won’t forsake me
I’m loving angels instead
 
When I’m feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I’ll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I’m loving angels instead
 
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I’m right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won’t break me
When I come to call she won’t forsake me
I’m loving angels instead 
 
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I’m right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won’t break me
When I come to call she won’t forsake me
I’m loving angels instead
