Sail
A W O L N A T I O N Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sail
This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because
Blame it on my ADD baby

This is how an angel dies
Blame it on my own sick pride
Blame it on my ADD baby

Sail, sail
Sail, sail, sail

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself (myself)
Blame it on my ADD baby

Maybe I'm a different breed
Maybe I'm not listening
So blame it on my ADD baby

Sail, sail
Sail, sail, sail

La la la la la la, la la la la la la
la la la la la la, la la la la la la

Sail, sail
Sail, sail




Sail, sail
Sail, sail, sail

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to A W O L N A T I O N's song "Sail" depict the feelings of someone who is struggling mentally and emotionally. The lines "This is how I show my love, I made it in my mind because, blame it on my ADD baby" suggest that the person is using their creative imagination to express their love, possibly because they struggle with verbal communication or find it easier to express themselves through art. The mention of ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) hints that the person may have trouble focusing or regulating their emotions.


The line "This is how an angel dies, blame it on my own sick pride, blame it on my ADD baby" indicates that the person is battling with their own internal demons and may have feelings of guilt or shame. They may also be struggling with the pressure to appear perfect or put-together, which may be contributing to their mental and emotional state.


The chorus of the song, "Sail, sail, sail" is repeated multiple times, creating a haunting and almost hypnotic effect. The repetition of the word "sail" may represent the person's desire to escape or find relief from their inner turmoil.

I remember going to a circus for a school trip in like 2015 and they played 10 seconds of this song, i made it my life journey to find it, I only had a tune, no words and 6 years later, here I am, crying because I finally did it. I found the song :)
