Fly Again
Dreamchild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your words and sins will cure it
If you just try.
Can you be the guardian of my flame ?
Don't ever let it be apeased by the rain.
I am an angel
Who's burned his wings staying too close to hell
Sometimes I feel I'm lost inside someone else.
Can you bring back colors into my world ?
You're like the rainbow in the winter's cold.
I am an angel
Who cannot seem to be in phase with heaven
Teach how to fly again,
My wings are trapped inside my brain.
You're the one who ease my pain
You can help me fly again.
Take me to your own universe,
And put an end to this curse.
Thee used to be a time
When I could reach the stars at the speed of light
But like Icarus, I've been too close, too soon,
To a burning sun...
Fly...
The lyrics of Dreamchild’s song ‘Fly Again’ speaks to the notion of finding oneself lost and disconnected, seeking help and guidance from someone who can save their soul. The singer of the song asks for a guardian to be set over the fire that burns within them, so that they don’t lose their passion in the face of hard times. They describe themselves as an angel who is lost; they have been burnt by their own passion and have found themselves wandering aimlessly. They need someone who can bring back the myriad of colors that is their world, someone who is like the hope that a rainbow brings during the cold winter months.
The singer of the song recognizes that they are out of touch with their own nature, they have lost their connection with heaven and are unable to harmonize with it. The lyrics delve into this feeling of disconnect and seek out someone to teach them to fly again. Their wings, which were once omnipotent, have been paralyzed by their own anxieties and fears, they seek out someone who can help them reform their own self-belief.
‘Fly Again’ is a song of hope in times of adversity, of reconnecting with one’s innerness and with that which makes us human. In times of darkness, the song speaks to the infinite hope that comes with the human spirit.
