Take My Love
Angel Du$t Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Terrified
Don't leave me on a fence to die
I've been holding on and on
Shed my skin, i'm coming out

Pressure
To be this way forever
Don't want to turn you on and on
Shed my skin, i'm coming out

I'm burning with loss
Take my love, dust it off





I'm terrified of the pressure

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Angel Du$t's song Take My Love convey a sense of vulnerability and desperation in the face of pressure and uncertainty. The singer is terrified of being left behind, abandoned on a metaphorical fence, and is desperate to shed their old self and emerge anew. They are under intense pressure to maintain a certain status quo, to be a certain way forever, but they don't want to be turned on and off like a switch, forced to play a role they don't feel comfortable in. Despite this fear and pressure, they are willing to risk their heart and offer up their love, hoping that it can be rekindled and made new again.


The chorus, "I'm burning with loss, take my love, dust it off" suggests a sense of hopelessness and despair, but also a willingness to try again. The loss they feel is likely linked to the pressure they are under and the fear of losing the person they care about. By offering up their love and asking to have it dusted off, they are expressing a desire to start fresh and move forward, despite the challenges they face.


In sum, these lyrics paint a complex and emotional picture of a person struggling to navigate a difficult situation in their relationship. They are scared, but also hopeful, desperate to shed their old skin and start anew, and willing to take risks in the name of love.
