Reflection
BRENNAN SAVAGE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody told me
Keep on going
But I can't go without you
People keep telling me to keep on looking
But I can't see without you
I don't wanna die while my mamma alive
Because she can't be alone
I just want to tell you the way I feel
But now I can't cause you gone
We was so young
In a world so cold
Why do some die young
While the rest grow old?
I would trade my life
If it meant you'd return
To send you to heaven
In hell I would burn for you
The tears grow long
While I write this song
Never thought I month would feel this long
My friend
Will I ever find peace again?
I don't know
Show me a sign if you can
I'm holding on to the memory that I have




When we were young
They were the best times I ever had

The song "Reflection" by Brennan Savage is a heartfelt composition that deals with the theme of loss and grief. The song begins with the singer expressing his inability to function without his loved one, who is no longer with him. He talks about how people around him advise him to move on, but he is unable to do so. He is filled with fear of leaving his mother alone and is left with an unexpressed feeling for his loved one. He is consumed with questions about why some people have to die young, while others grow old. He wishes he could trade his life to bring his loved one back, even if that meant suffering in hell.

He asks whether he will ever find peace again and if his friend can show him a sign of hope. The song ends with a nostalgic note where the singer reminisces about the good old days when they were young, which were the best times he ever had.

Lyrics

[Verse: Brennan Savage]
Everybody told me
Keep on going
But I can't go without you
People keep telling me to keep on looking
But I can't see without you
I don't wanna die while my momma alive
Because she can't be alone
I just want to tell you the way I feel
But now I can't cause you gone
We was so young
In a world so cold
Why do some die young
While the rest grow old
I would trade my life
If it meant you'd return
To send you to heaven
In hell, I would burn for you
The tears grow long
While I write this song
Never thought a month would feel this long
My friend
Will I ever find peace again
I don't know
Show me a sign if you can

[Hook: Brennan Savage]
I'm holding on
To the memory that I have
When we were young
They were the best times I ever had

[Intro]
"I'm never gonna run out on you ever again. Say the words."
"No."
"My coat."
"Well, I ain't ever gonna run out on you, and that's a promise."
"Well, I want to run out of here, so-"

[Verse: Brennan Savage]
Everybody told me
Keep on going
But I can't go without you
People keep telling me to keep on looking
But I can't see without you
I don't wanna die while my momma alive
Because she can't be alone
I just want to tell you the way I feel
But now I can't cause you gone
We was so young
In a world so cold
Why do some die young
While the rest grow old
I would trade my life
If it meant you'd return
To send you to heaven
In hell, I would burn for you
The tears grow long
While I write this song
Never thought a month would feel this long
My friend
Will I ever find peace again
I don't know
Show me a sign if you can


[Hook: Brennan Savage]
I'm holding on
To the memories that I have
When we were young
They were the best times I ever had

[Outro: Erin Reus]
You taught me, that home’s not just a house
I’ve been so homesick for you darling
Even-
"Hey I got something to show you"
