Blue In The Dark
Bearings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me, do you let your mind
Slip away at night?
Underneath this feeling, a reminder
I've been tryna find some time here
See what you're all about
Ooh, bring me home
Right here (Right here)
Forever
Take my heart and make it feel
Take my soul and make it real
'Cause I was bright, yeah, I was pale and blue
Starry-eyed by every thought of you
Take my hand before I go
Take it all 'cause I'm a ghost
Wish it was something that I said to you
But some rest is all I need
But I'm afraid, afraid of the light
I'm feeling the pain, the worst of my life
And worms will eat my flesh
'Til earth is all that's left
Bleeding and breathing
Take my heart and make it feel
Take my soul and make it real
'Cause I was bright, yeah, I was pale and blue
Starry-eyed by every thought of you
Take my hand before I go
Take it all 'cause I'm a ghost
Wish it was something that I said to you
But some rest is all I need
The brightest blue in the dark
I feel it falling apart
The brightest blue in the dark
I feel it falling apart
Take my heart and make it feel
Take my soul and make it real
'Cause I was bright, yeah, I was pale and blue
Starry-eyed by every thought of you
Take my hand before I go
Take it all 'cause I'm a ghost
Wish it was something that I said to you
But I know that some rest is all I need
"Blue In the Dark" by Bearings is a song about love, loss, and reflection. The lyrics suggest an emotional journey of the singer who is trying to explore the depths of their own mind while reminiscing about someone they were once close to, but has since slipped away. In the first verse, the singer wonders if the person they are singing about is also wondering the same things they are. They talk about the feeling of being lost in thought at night, looking for something they can't quite grasp. The lyrics suggest that the singer is searching for meaning and purpose, and they believe that this person they once knew might hold the answers they seek.
The chorus is a plea to this person, asking them to take the singer's heart and soul and make them feel and be real. The singer describes their feelings towards the person, both bright and pale and blue, starry-eyed with every thought of them. They recognize that they are at a crossroads, and they are afraid of what the future holds. They know that they need some rest, and this song seems like an attempt to process and move forward from their emotions.
"Blue In the Dark" is a deeply personal song, and while the lyrics are somewhat cryptic, it's clear that the singer is dealing with some intense emotions. It's a song that many people can relate to, especially those who have lost someone they loved or are struggling to find their place in the world.

Wonder, tell me do you wonder?
Do you ever question the world around you?
Tell me, do you let your mind
Are you able to let go of your thoughts
Slip away at night?
to let yourself lose control of your thoughts
Underneath this feeling, a reminder
This underlying emotion serves as a reminder
I've been tryna find some time here
I have been trying to make time for contemplation
See what you're all about
I want to know your essence
Ooh, bring me home
I long to be in a familiar place
And ooh, decompose
I want to break down my walls
Right here (Right here)
In this present moment
Forever
With an eternal passion
Take my heart and make it feel
I want to experience true love and emotion
Take my soul and make it real
I want to live with authenticity and purpose
'Cause I was bright, yeah, I was pale and blue
At one time I was full of hope and now I am empty
Starry-eyed by every thought of you
I am captivated by my feelings for you
Take my hand before I go
I want reassurance and comfort from you
Take it all 'cause I'm a ghost
I am a shadow of my former self
Wish it was something that I said to you
I wish I had expressed myself to you
But some rest is all I need
But all I really need is to rest
But I'm afraid, afraid of the light
I am scared to face the truth
I'm feeling the pain, the worst of my life
I am suffering through my darkest moment
And worms will eat my flesh
I will eventually decay after I die
Til earth is all that's left
Until I return to the earth I came from
Bleeding and breathing
Living with wounds that may never fully heal
The brightest blue in the dark
The most vibrant but also the most vulnerable
I feel it falling apart
I sense that everything is collapsing
Take my heart and make it feel
I want to experience true love and emotion
Take my soul and make it real
I want to live with authenticity and purpose
'Cause I was bright, yeah, I was pale and blue
At one time I was full of hope and now I am empty
Starry-eyed by every thought of you
I am captivated by my feelings for you
Take my hand before I go
I want reassurance and comfort from you
Take it all 'cause I'm a ghost
I am a shadow of my former self
Wish it was something that I said to you
I wish I had expressed myself to you
But I know that some rest is all I need
But all I really need is to rest

Whenever I have friends over I play music in the living room off of my tv, and this song NEVER fails to make everyone stop what they're doing, snap their heads around to the tv to see its name, and save it for themselves no matter their genre interests. That's how you know a song is just different.
@hbade
That modulation during the bridge makes that somber feeling hit hard. Little details like that are the difference between a good song and a GREAT song.
@CharlieBees
That modulation. My heart sinks into my guts.
@stevesoo8484
Wait, he's a literal ghost and all he was waiting for before he went was to make sure she was OK?!? Oh, man, this song is too amazing.
@trendom8164
I never thought of it that way and when he is sitting at the bus stop he can’t leave because he needs to know that she is fine
@trendom8164
At the start when he is looking at his watch he is waiting for her

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Is it just me or is there something really nostalgic about this song. Reminds me of early 2000s driving around the mountains listening to Frou Frou and Senses Fail.
@brendanfisher
How has your life panned out since then?

You know, I got into a car accident a few months ago and totalled my car. It really hurts me hard but I love this music video. And I've listened to this song over and over again
