    Angel is a sexy sinister neo-psychedelic confessional that leads the listener further into Moth Mouth’s hazy nocturnal world. The song’s hook, “I wanna be an angel, even if it means I have to die,” is a dark declaration, a plea to be desirable in the eyes of another. The record’s shadowy palate is fueled sometimes by an overarching theme of loneliness and the inability to provide love as well as receive it. It was recorded over the Summer of 2023 on Martha's Vineyard. The video was directed by Olivia Sack and the Brooklyn designer vintage store Kosuge Bachman leant pieces for Charlotte to wear for the shoot.

lyrics

Calling me angel as a trick
I’m laying in my bed immobile like a
Kid who’s lying about being sick
So he doesn’t have to go to school

I’m getting naked on the gram
I’m fucking on the first date but it’s cool
‘Cause nobody can tell me what I am
Drunk and dizzy when it all goes down

I’ve never seen him happy
I wanna make him happy
I wanna be an angel
Even if it means I have to die

I’m good at making all the sounds
Purr like a kitten, yell, I’m crying
Up from underneath the ground
It’s the only way that I know how

I’m feelin’ rough I’m feelin’ raw
I’m in my prime, I’m the life of the party
Nobody can do you wrong
When your full time job is being cool

I’ve never been so happy
I wanna make you happy
I wanna be an angel
even if it means I have to die

You’ve never been this happy
and I feel sorry for ya
I can’t remember happiness
I only wanna live a lie
