Avicii Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Help me put my mind to rest
Two times clean again, I'm actin' low
A pound of weed and a bag of blow
I can feel your love pullin' me up from the underground, and
I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers
I can feel your touch pickin' me up from the underground, and
We could be more than just part-time lovers
We could be more than just part-time lovers
I get robbed of all my sleep
As my thoughts begin to bleed
I'd let go, but I don't know how
Yeah, I don't know how, but I need to now
I can feel your love pullin' me up from the underground, and
I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers
I can feel your touch pickin' me up from the underground, and
I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers (ayy)
I can feel your touch pickin' me up from the underground, and (yeah)
I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers
(We could be) We could be more than just part-time lovers
(Yeah, more than, more than lovers)
We could be more than just part-time lovers
Can you hear me? S.O.S.
Help me put my mind to rest
The lyrics to Avicii's song "SOS" explore themes of addiction and the redemptive power of love. The opening line "Can you hear me? S.O.S" is a cry for help and suggests a feeling of desperation. The following lines, "Help me put my mind to rest, Two times clean again, I'm actin' low, A pound of weed and a bag of blow," suggest that the singer is struggling with addiction and has relapsed. The use of the phrase "two times clean again" suggests that the singer has tried to get sober before, but has fallen off the wagon. The mention of drugs indicates that the singer is using substances to cope with their emotional pain.
However, the chorus of the song suggests that the singer has found someone who is helping them to overcome their addiction. The lyrics, "I can feel your love pullin' me up from the underground, and I don't need my drugs, we could be more than just part-time lovers" suggest that the singer's partner is a source of strength and support. They are able to provide a sense of connection and intimacy that is more satisfying than the temporary high of drugs. The repeated phrase "We could be more than just part-time lovers" suggests that the singer wants to build a lasting relationship with this person.
The second verse explores the singer's struggle with intrusive thoughts and their desire to let go of their addiction. The line "I get robbed of all my sleep, As my thoughts begin to bleed" suggests that the singer is struggling with insomnia and racing thoughts. The line "I'd let go, but I don't know how, Yeah, I don't know how, but I need to now" suggests that the singer is aware that their addiction is not sustainable and that they need to break the cycle, but they are not sure how to do so. Overall, the song suggests that love and connection can be a powerful force in overcoming addiction and that there is hope for recovery.
