EVERGLOW
Alazka Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Too long to see the sun
Now all that's left to give
Is but a little spark
Of what I had inside
Your need to run away
Your addiction to escape
Now you ended up with me tonight
I know you'll witness what I am
Can't bring myself to let it go
(cause you've) seen a man in suffering
But chose to stay
Chase the sun
Cause if I'm the only one
Losing honesty
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
Yourself
I can't let you stay
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
A ray of light
A stranger on the run
There's nowhere to return
Nowhere you belong
When the day begins
I know that you feel safe
But still you're out of place
And you can't stay with me
So I can't afford to let you in
Now we're falling
You got so much more
I know you'll witness what I am
Can't bring myself to let it go
(cause you've) seen a man in suffering
But chose to stay
Chase the sun
Cause if I'm the only one
Losing honesty
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
Yourself
I can't let you stay
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
You've been waiting for a lifetime
You've been waiting for a lifetime
But I can't forget you
To suffer
Is the price that we pay until forever
Honestly
Don't fall for me
For me
Chase the sun
Cause if I'm the only one
Losing honesty
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
Yourself
I can't let you stay
Don't fall for me
Fall for yourself
The lyrics to Alazka's song "Everglow" delve into themes of internal struggle, emotional turmoil, and the complexities of relationships. The opening lines "I ruled the night, too long to see the sun" paint a picture of someone who has been engulfed in darkness and is now searching for a glimmer of light. The singer acknowledges that all they have left to offer is a small spark of what they once had inside, indicating a sense of diminished self-worth or emotional depletion.
The lyrics suggest a dynamic between two individuals, with one person feeling the need to run away and escape from a life filled with harm. Despite this, they find themselves in the company of the singer, implying a sense of mutual understanding or shared pain. The line "You ended up with me tonight" portrays a moment of connection born out of shared struggles and vulnerabilities.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of self-discovery and self-empowerment. The singer urges the other person not to fall for them but to fall for themselves instead. This message conveys a sense of recognizing one's own worth and agency, encouraging personal growth and independence.
The closing lines of the song reflect on the inevitability of suffering and the enduring impact it can have on individuals. The singer acknowledges the price that is paid for love and connection, hinting at the challenges and sacrifices inherent in relationships. The repetition of the refrain "Don't fall for me, fall for yourself" underscores the importance of self-reliance and self-love in navigating the complexities of life and love. Overall, "Everglow" is a poignant exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and the quest for self-discovery amid emotional turmoil.
