With Me
Emma & Tinna From All Ends Feat. Marty Friedman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't let go
While the snowflake stands
Will you take my hand?
Stay with me
Never leave
On the cold, dark eve
Will you stay with me?
I've got to be somewhere and
I feel the cold night air now
Rushing through my head
Shivers, shivers, shivers, down my spine
All the streets are shining
I guess that it's that time and
I pretend I'm fine, but I know I'm not
Don't know why I'm nervous, and I
I think I deserve this, 'cause I'm
Always complicating every little thing, yeah
Do you feel lonely with me?
I can do better, you see
Don't let go, don't let us lose what could have been
Take my hand
Don't let go
While the snowflake stands
Will you take my hand?
Stay with me
Never leave
On the cold, dark eve
Will you stay with me?
I've been out so long that I'm
Used to being alone, and I
I don't know what loving is
But I think it's time that changed
Tired of holding just a pillow
Seeing life unravel through a window
I know that I'm better
Don't know why I'm nervous, and I
I think I deserve this, 'cause I'm
Always complicating every little thing, yeah
Do you feel lonely with me?
I can do better, you see
Don't let go, don't let us lose what could have been
Take my hand
Don't let go
While the snowflake stands
Will you take my hand?
Stay with me
Never leave
On the cold, dark eve
Will you stay with me?
The song "With Me" is a plea for someone to stay by the singer's side through thick and thin. The singer is struggling with feelings of loneliness and fear as they venture out into the dark night. They are scared and nervous about the unknown, and they need a hand to hold onto to help them through. The snowflake is a symbol of the transience of life, and the singer wants to be with someone they can trust before it melts away. The singer recognizes that they have a tendency to overthink and complicate things, but they are willing to try to be better. They believe that the person they are with deserves more from them, and they want to make a change.
The song has a melancholic yet hopeful tone, with lyrics that speak to the universal experience of needing someone to lean on during difficult times. The melody is gentle and soothing, perfectly matching the mood of the lyrics. Marty Friedman's guitar solo adds a touch of emotion to the song, making it even more poignant.
