Fall
A. Armada Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No chance for me to start again
Break my heart again
No more reason why I'm here
There's a flood in my room I'm distraught
There's extra news and that's for sure
Bring back my chance to survive
? of bullshit and lies
Hope shatters my whole damn life

Even though I'm not alone tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight

My savior breaks through
Clouds drain down on you
(I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)
With you girl come on
Give in to what I've done
(I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)

Turn the lights out on my life
Can't you see I'm losing my mind?
You walk away again out of my sight
Cause I'll never have you as my wife

I just fall silent
(I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)
My savior breaks through clouds drain down on you
(I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)

With you girl come on give in to what I've done
(I'm left? I'm left? I'm left?)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to A. Armada's song Fall are open to interpretation, but it seems to be about a person who has hit rock bottom and is struggling to find a reason to keep going. The line "no chance for me to start again, break my heart again" suggests that the person has been hurt before and is afraid to try again. They feel helpless and overwhelmed, as if there is no reason left for them to be here. The line "there's a flood in my room I'm distraught" could represent the overwhelming feelings the person is experiencing.

The next few lines are a bit unclear, but seem to suggest that the person is tired of dealing with "bullshit and lies" and just wants a chance to survive. They feel hopeless and like their hope has been shattered. Despite feeling alone in their struggle, they are not actually alone tonight, as evidenced by the repeated use of "tonight."

The chorus seems to bring a ray of hope, with the singer's "savior" breaking through and the "clouds drain[ing] down on you." It's unclear who the "you" refers to, but it could be the singer themselves or someone else. They are left wondering if they are truly alone (represented by the repetition of "I'm left?") and hoping for someone to come and give in to what they've done (again, unclear what this refers to).

The last verse seems to be addressed to someone in particular, who the singer views as a potential partner or spouse. They feel like they are losing their mind and can't bear the thought of the person walking away again. They know they'll never have the person as a spouse, which is a devastating thought. The final chorus repeats the hope brought by the singer's savior, but it's unclear if the singer has found any real comfort.
