Avicii (feat. Adam Lambert) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometimes my knees can barely hold me up
I'm no fool, but it's said
You gotta walk a mile 'til you're outta my head
Come within, taste it up
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up
Cast your light, give a damn
Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
(Come on)
Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
(Come on)
Tell me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
Tell me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
I got the time, it'll be alright, yeah, I got the time
That you need (Yeah)
We all weep, bleed the same
If you get the picture, leave it outta the frame
In the now, take a chance
Make a mess, and don't forget that life is a dance
Come within, taste it up
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up
Cast your light, give a damn
You gotta make a move and show me where we can stand
Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need
(Come on)
Lay me down in darkness (Yeah)
Tell me what you see

The lyrics to Avicii's "Lay Me Down" featuring Adam Lambert are about vulnerability, the search for love, and the challenges that come along with it. In the first verse, Lambert sings about feeling weak and having a hard time standing on his own. He knows that moving on from a past love takes time and effort. In the chorus, he asks the person he's singing to lay him down in darkness and tell him what they see, and to show him that he's the one they need. The second verse encourages taking risks and making mistakes in the pursuit of finding love. The repeated phrase "show me I'm the one that you need" emphasizes the desire for validation and reassurance in a relationship.
Overall, the song speaks to the common human experience of longing for love and the fear of being alone. It encourages taking steps towards vulnerability and taking risks, even when it's scary. The beat and melody of the song are upbeat and energetic, underscoring the hopeful message of the lyrics.
