Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
spoke to my soul
took all my pain
gave me lost hope
confused and alone
no more to give
when all was lost
take me away
save me again
chorus:
you tried so hard
you tried to take away
all of my pain
but it's not enough
i'm in despair
i won't let go
a refuge i seek
you're all i know
take me away
save me again
chorus
ahh's
take me away
save me again
take me away
save me again
chorus
you tried so hard
but it's not enough
In Allyptic's song Refuge, the lyrics depict a person who has been hurt and is feeling lost and confused. The opening lyrics, "You felt my hurt, spoke to my soul, took all my pain, gave me lost hope" suggest that this person has found someone who understands their pain and has been able to provide some relief. The verse goes on to describe how, despite feeling like they had nothing left to give, this person was given a reason to live and was saved from their despair.
The chorus then follows with the refrain, "You tried so hard, you tried to take away, all of my pain, but it's not enough." This suggests that while the person singing the song is grateful for the comfort and support they have received, ultimately it is not enough to completely erase their pain. The final lines of the chorus, "I'm in despair, I won't let go, a refuge I seek, you're all I know" reinforce this sentiment, suggesting that while they may not be fully relieved of their pain, they are still seeking comfort and safety in the person who has been there for them.
Overall, the lyrics of Refuge communicate the complex emotions that come with trying to heal from emotional pain. It acknowledges that while support and comfort from others can be helpful, it may not fully erase the pain and that true healing is a complicated and often ongoing process.
