Calling Me
Aquilo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A light piece of glass
Begins to fall, it makes me wonder
How do I make use of this?
I stumble around to find that
This is all I've got
I stumble around to find that
This is all I need
Oh, and the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me

A sudden thought of disbelief
Clouds my every conscience
But how do we seek refuge here?
I panic a bit to find out that
This is all I've got
I panic a bit to find out that
This is all I need

Oh, and the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me

How could I misstep?
Trouble might speak back
How could I misstep?
Trouble might speak back

Oh, and the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me

Oh, and the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me home




And the wake up is calling me home
And the wake up is calling me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Aquilo's song Calling Me may seem a bit confusing at first, but the deeper meaning behind them is quite clear. The song is about a person who is lost and confused, looking for a way to find meaning and purpose in their life. The falling glass represents the fragility of life and the uncertainty of the future. The person stumbles around trying to make sense of it all and comes to the realization that what they have is enough, and they don't need anything else to be happy. The wake-up referred to in the lyrics is a call to action, to wake up and start living the life that they truly want to live.


The sudden thought of disbelief could be seen as a doubt or fear that creeps in and clouds the person's judgement. However, they are still determined to find refuge and seek clarity. The panic that sets in is a natural reaction to any sudden realization, but the person quickly realizes that all they need is inside of them. The repetition of the phrase "This is all I need" reinforces this idea.


The line "How could I misstep?" suggests that the person is afraid of making mistakes and failing, but they are willing to take the risk and face any consequences. The phrase "Trouble might speak back" could be interpreted as a reminder of the potential consequences of one's actions.


Overall, the lyrics of Calling Me reflect the journey of self-discovery and the importance of finding contentment in oneself. The wake-up call represents the realization that life is short and it's time to start living to the fullest.

So he went to practice, walked home, had a drink, went out again, and those assholes are still doing nothing with their lives either than wasting it away in front of a dude's house to mock him?

@derriandeshotel5042

Izza Ismail I feel like the 3 represent his own insecurities. it gets worse when got rejected. so I don't think they are real which is supported by the end where he finally breaks free of his insecurities.
