The Struggle Between Inner Angels and Demons

The song "Angels Or Devils" by Dishwalla delves into the internal conflict between good and evil that resides within us all. The lyrics suggest a moment of decision or a turning point, where the protagonist is facing their inner demons and angels for what seems to be the last time. The repeated phrase 'This is the last time' indicates a finality, a moment where the protagonist is drawing a line and perhaps choosing to confront their issues head-on.

The imagery of angels and devils burning inside suggests a powerful internal struggle. The angels represent the good, the love, and the positive forces within, while the devils symbolize the pain, the negative influences, and the demons that one battles with. The song poses a question about whether we, as individuals, will ever overcome these internal battles to 'learn to fly' or if we will succumb and 'come back down.' It's a metaphor for personal growth and the fight to overcome one's own flaws and fears.

The song also touches on the theme of vulnerability and the fear of what could 'make us cold.' This could be interpreted as a fear of becoming desensitized or losing one's humanity due to the hardships faced. The advice to 'take a breath, make it deep' serves as a reminder to stay present and appreciate life, even amidst the struggle. Overall, Dishwalla's song is a poignant reflection on the human condition and the perpetual fight between our better selves and our darker inclinations.
