4.6 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame
Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, I'm needy
Ouch, I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found
Yeah, I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe
Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, I'm needy
Warm me up and breathe me
Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, I'm needy
Warm me up and breathe me
The lyrics to 4.6's song "Echoes" is an introspective reflection of a person who has fallen back into a pattern of self-harm, and is reaching out for help. The first verse reveals that the singer has done this before and the worst part is there is no one else to blame. The second verse emphasizes the singer's sense of loss and danger, as they feel they may break and they are nowhere to be found. The chorus is a plea for help, for someone to be their friend, hold them, wrap them up, warm them up, and breathe them.
It's clear that the singer is struggling with some inner turmoil, trying to overcome a difficult pattern or cycle in their life. The lines "Be my friend, hold me / Wrap me up, unfold me / I am small, I'm needy / Warm me up and breathe me" show that the singer is looking for someone to come alongside them, to offer comfort and support.
The theme of the song is one of vulnerability and the need for human connection. In a world where it is easy to be isolated, it can be hard to find that support when we need it most. "Echoes" also highlights the complex nature of addiction and mental health, and reminds us that recovery is a process that requires ongoing effort, vulnerability, and a team of supportive people.
