Hang On
Bride Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stupid mistake the life I take
Will be my own broken home
Ain't helped me none so I am done
Starring at the end losing the fight
Planning to end it all by night
One wrong turn is all it took
Nowhere to run nowhere to look
As I look outside my door
See nothing left to live for
I've already tried everything
I have no one else to blame
Here I am at my end
Don't even know when it began
All I know is it's through
I'm not the one you thought you knew

Hang On
Momma stop the bullet from rushing to my head
Hang On
Momma stop the bullet from rushing to my head

Have no where to go from here
Seems like so many years
Have already came and went
So much time never spent
Wondering how to fight the pain
Dry the tears that fall like rain




Scared to death running blind
I have nothing left to hide

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bride's song Hang On tell the story of a person who is at the end of their rope, contemplating taking their own life. The person acknowledges that their life has been a "stupid mistake" and that they have no one else to blame for their problems. They feel hopeless and lost, with "nowhere to run, nowhere to look." Despite trying everything to pick themselves up, they see "nothing left to live for." The person's mother is implored to "stop the bullet from rushing to [their] head," as they are on the brink of suicide.


The lyrics paint a picture of a person who has hit rock bottom and feels like there is no way out of their situation. They are overcome with emotions and pain, and feel like taking their life is the only way to find relief. The repeated phrase "Hang On" can be seen as a glimmer of hope, encouraging the person to hold on and not give up. The song as a whole serves as a reminder that, even in our darkest moments, there is always hope and help available.
