Bearings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My body feels so weak and fragile
I think that I need you here by me
I think that I need you here
I'll tell you how I have been awful,
My god, I feel tired and lonely,
You know that I need you, need someone to sing to
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me? Ya make me
(Chorus)
Smile with my eyes closed laying in the living room
I wanna take you everywhere
Anywhere you wanna go, I'll take you there just let me know
Oh but we both know that isn't true
For now, but give this a little time, I'll do everything I can, I've got the still frame in my mind
When I'll be there, I'll be there, smiling with my eyes closed
My words they get tangled and mixed up
It's hard to explain how this feels
I've played it all out in my head now
Once or twice, but that just isn't real
I've said far too many goodbyes, can't imagine the day you're gone
I can write you a letter, I couldn't feel better
I might even write you a song
All I need
Is for you to sing
Sing for me
Sunset colouring
All I need
Is for you to sing
Sing for me
Over everything
The song "Eyes Closed" by Bearings expresses a deep sense of vulnerability and reliance on someone significant. The lyrics convey a sense of need for someone to be present during challenging times when the singer feels weak and fragile. The opening verse holds a very raw expression of vulnerability, "Lately, it's not hard to destroy me, my body feels so weak and fragile, I think that I need you here by me, I think that I need you here." The singer admits his flaws, and with that, he confesses to someone he trusts how awful he's been feeling lately.
The chorus of the song further emphasizes the need for someone's companionship, but the singer seems aware that he couldn't always deliver on his promises. He recognizes, "but we both know that isn't true, for now, but give this a little time, I'll do everything I can; I've got the still frame in my mind when I'll be there, I'll be there, smiling with my eyes closed." The singer is very sincere and longs to make someone happy, but he is also honest with himself and recognizes his limitations.
Overall, Bearings's song "Eyes Closed" captures the essence of needing someone's support and companionship, while recognizing that one sometimes could not always deliver on their promises - but intending to do what they can to make the other person happy.

I've played it all out in my head now
Once or twice, but that just isn't real
It's difficult for me to articulate how I'm feeling, and even when I try to imagine it in my head, it never quite matches the reality of the situation.

I can write you a letter, I couldn't feel better
I might even write you a song
I've experienced too much loss in my life, and the thought of losing you terrifies me. To ease my mind, I might write you a letter or even a song, just to express how much you mean to me.
All I need
Is for you to sing
Sing for me

Over everything
All I really need right now is for you to sing to me, to help me feel better, to see the world through a more positive and colorful lens, and to help me feel like everything is going to be okay.

Lately, it's not hard to destroy me
My body feels so weak and fragile
I think that I need you here by me
I think that I need you here now
Tell you how I have been awful
And God, I feel tired and lonely
You know that I need you
Need someone to sing
So why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
You make me smile with my eyes closed
Laying in the living room
I wanna take you everywhere
Anywhere you wanna go
I'll take you there, just let me know
Although we both know that isn't true
For now, fuck it, there's so little time
I'll do everything I can
I've got to stuff it in my mind
I'll be there, I'll be there
Smiling with my eyes closed
My words, they get tangled and mixed up
It's hard to explain how this feels
I've played it all out in my head now
Once or twice but that just isn't real
I've said far too many goodbyes
Can't imagine the day you're gone
I can write you a letter, I couldn't feel better
I might even write you a song
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
Why don't you just sing for me?
You make me smile with my eyes closed
Laying in the living room

Although we both know that isn't true

I'll do everything I can
I've got to stuff it in my mind
I'll be there, I'll be there
Smiling with my eyes closed
All I need
Sing for me
All I need
Sing for me
All I need
Sing for me
Smile with my eyes closed
Laying in the living room

I'm so happy I discovered them today this really slaps
Don't bother reading this:
Saw them open for Mom Jeans in Vancouver! Amazing stage presence and they're absolutely stunning. If you get a chance to watch them perform live you should snag some tickets.
