Edge of Dawn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Took the path of someone else
Today I might be you
I can't get out
Second to none
I can't get out
Invisible sun
I might be you
Invisible sun
Early on in my life I made a choice
Someday I'd use a gun to stop the noise
(Stop the noise!)
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
Of an invisible sun
(x2)
(Stop the noise! x4)
Early on in my life I made a choice
I couldn't go on with all the noise
All the noise
(I might be you!)
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
(Stop the noise!)
Of an invisible sun
(Stop the noise!)
Hey
Invite
Follow
Pray
Follow
Invisible sun
Pray for love
We dance
To an inaudible drum
Stay for love
In the light
Of an invisible sun
(x2)
The lyrics of Edge of Dawn's song Pray for Love touch upon themes of confusion, identity, and the desire for love and escape from the noise of life. In the first verse, the singer reflects on their past, stating that they were confused and followed the path of someone else, but now they understand that they might be someone else to someone else, highlighting the relativity of identity. The repeated lines, "I can't get out, Second to none, I'm sick, you're not," underscore feelings of being trapped and isolated, possibly due to societal pressures or mental illness. The line "Invisible sun" can be interpreted as a metaphor for either hope or despair, as it is unattainable and different for everyone.
In the second verse, the theme of choice is introduced, with the singer noting that they made a choice to use a gun to stop the noise. This can be interpreted in different ways, including being a metaphorical representation of the desire for escape or a literal reference to suicide. The chorus urges the listener to "pray for love" and stay in the light of an invisible sun, suggesting that the answer to the chaos of life and the noise of the world is love and connection. The bridge includes calls to action, with "Invite, Follow, Pray, Follow" repeating, encouraging the listener to seek out love and connection.
