This is not the end
This coin toss we will win
I'm out and I'm down
I've lost all my sight
Don't put me down
Even if the futures not bright
With a hole in my side
The Wind is pushing me
Through The Misery Passage
And I'm gonna be okay
I want you to know
You did all you could
It's not your fault
Don't think that it was
Stay strong for me
This might be the end
Surrounded by family
Surrounded by fear
I could never take this much
I can't fight and I can't think
With a hole in my side
So put me down
Go on and kill me now
Let them know I'm gone
Empty me out
The Wind is pushing me
Through The Misery Passage
And I'm gonna be okay
Escape the place
I put you in
There are real things to be scared of
And this is not it
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
I'm gonna be okay
In the song "Wind" by .May, the lyrics convey a message of inner strength, perseverance, and acceptance in the face of difficult circumstances. The singer requests for someone to remain strong for them because they believe that this is not the end, indicating a glimmer of hope. They mention a "coin toss we will win," suggesting that despite their current struggles, they have faith that things will turn out in their favor.
The lyrics "I'm out and I'm down, I've lost all my sight" express a state of feeling defeated and overwhelmed. However, they urge others not to put them down, even if the future seems bleak. The singer emphasizes their determination and resilience by saying they are fighting and screaming, despite the metaphorical "hole in my side" symbolizing pain or vulnerability.
"The Wind is pushing me through The Misery Passage, and I'm gonna be okay" indicates a sense of surrender to the forces of life, accepting that hardships may come their way but they believe they will ultimately come out alright. This demonstrates the singer's optimism and the ability to find strength amidst their struggles.
In the next paragraph, the singer addresses someone specifically, possibly a loved one, assuring them that they have done everything they could. They reassure this person that whatever they are facing is not their fault and that they should not blame themselves for the situation. It's a message of comfort, reminding the person not to carry unnecessary guilt.
The lyrics then shift to a more dire situation where the singer implies that this might be the end. They describe being surrounded by family and fear, overwhelmed by the intensity of their circumstances. The line "I could never take this much, I can't fight and I can't think, with a hole in my side" highlights their vulnerability and the toll that their struggles have taken on them.
However, the request to "put me down" in the following line could have a metaphorical meaning, indicating a desire to give up or release the pain they are experiencing. They ask for closure, suggesting that they want others to know they are no longer there and to let go of their pain.
The chorus repeats the idea that the wind is guiding them through the "Misery Passage," indicating that the singer is embracing their circumstances and finding solace in the idea that they will ultimately be okay.
The final stanza seems to be an encouragement or a message to someone else. The singer urges the listener to escape the place that they have been placed in, suggesting that there are real things to be afraid of and that their current situation is not one of them. They reiterate the phrase "I'm gonna be okay" multiple times, concluding the song with a reaffirmation of their resilience and their conviction that they will overcome their challenges.
