Tell Me
Atlas Bound Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There ain't no heart and you know it
They say the world's a feeble
Only time will tell
They say you still, you still got some going in you
How long have you been searching
For a place to forget particularly still?
But I hope it's gonna be a time
Well TELL ME who
TELL ME who you think you are?
And what puts you, you
So far above the rest of us?
But TELL ME who, yeah, who
TELL ME who you think you are?
And what puts you, you
So far above the rest of us?
So far
'Cause you got the rest of my love
And all of my prayers
Because I have been there, boy
In your shoes
I am away
See I know that you've been been searching
For a place to forget particularly still?
I'm very glad for the times we've had
But boy I hope it's a while
Well TELL ME who
TELL ME who you think you are?
And what puts you, you
So far above the rest of us?
But TELL ME who, yeah, who
TELL ME who you think you are?
And what puts you, you
So far above the rest of us?
So far
The lyrics of Atlas Bound's song Tell Me tackle the universal theme of feeling lost and searching for a sense of purpose in life. The first stanza portrays a sense of despair and disillusionment with the world, as the singer navigates through a heartless and unforgiving environment. Despite this, there is a glimmer of hope and resilience as the lyrics encourage the person to keep going and not give up.
The lyrics then delve deeper into the singer's psyche, asking who they really are and what sets them apart from others. This can be interpreted as a challenge to the person to reflect on their innermost desires and fears, and to question whether their actions and beliefs are in line with their true identity. The chorus echoes this sentiment, demanding the person to answer the question of who they think they are, and what makes them different from the rest of the world.
The final verse is a poignant reminder of the importance of human connection and empathy. The lyrics express a sense of empathy and understanding from someone who has been in a similar situation and now offers their love and support to the singer. It is a call to remember the good times they have shared together and to hold on to the hope that things will get better.

A soul has no purpose in life, Aura a sight of your own soul shaping around others, passing emotions... through music a certain aura shapes and passes on to us, and to any others who here this soul enlightening song.
