Remedy
Eowyn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1: Here I am alone again. Down and out I just can't win. Contemplating all I've seen. Push the past in front of me. Build an alter burn what used to be consuming me. No more questioning over here. No more giving in to all my fears.

Chorus: Save all I am and take me where I stand. I'm ready to live.
Break down these walls and make me what you want.
You're the cure to all that ails me.
You're the one I need, you're the Remedy.

Verse 2: Like the calm before the storm, like the pause before the war I am troubled deep within. Voices speak without a name, makes me question am I sane to think I'm on the brink. No more questioning over here. No more giving in to all my fears
Bridge: Here I am. Save me!




No more questioning over here. No more giving in to all my fears
