air
Dameer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When she smiles blood runs wild
Cos it makes my heart bleed
Cos she can't help but suffocate
So I need to be the air she breathes

Can't let go, lost all hope
I hold her close and I look
Into her eyes, my mind dives
Deep into the sea
As she drowns me alive
There's no place that I'd rather be

And I'm trying my love,
And I'm trying my love,
To erase your memory

And I'm trying my dear,
To not be so near
But I guess I'd rather bleed

It just may be that she's right
And man is hollow
And time is a dream

But in this nihilism
We find masochism
With her I embrace the absurd

I got my life ahead of me and I'm
I'm not scared to death
But I'm sick and tired of feeling unheard

Won't let go
Who needs hope
I hold her close
And I look

Into her eyes, my mind dives
Deep into the sea
As she drowns me alive
There's no place that I'd rather be

And I'm trying my love,
And I'm trying my love,
To erase your memory

And I'm trying my dear,




To not be so near
But I guess I'd rather bleed

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Dameer's song "Air" depict a tumultuous and suffocating love affair. The line "when she smiles blood runs wild" suggest that the singer's passion for the woman is intense and overwhelming. However, the following line "cos it makes my heart bleed" reveals that the intensity of the relationship is taking a toll on him emotionally. The singer then acknowledges that the woman is also struggling, as she "can't help but suffocate" and he feels the need to be the air she breathes.


The second stanza delves even deeper into the toxicity of the relationship. The line "can't let go, lost all hope" implies that the singer is aware that the relationship is not healthy but feels trapped and helpless. The lyric "as she drowns me alive, there's no place that I'd rather be" portrays the destructive nature of the relationship, where the person is aware of the damage being inflicted but cannot escape it.


The final stanza suggests that the singer is aware of the futility of the situation, but is willing to endure the pain regardless. The lyric "and time is a dream, but in this nihilism we find masochism, with her I embrace the absurd" suggests a desire to reject conventional values and instead find purpose in their suffering together. The song ends with the singer struggling to let go of the relationship, while acknowledging the harm it is causing to him.
