Set Me Free
Exaloud Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I agree with the soul abscence
Time goes fast there is no time to depart
Consequences try to cure your heart
Why you are running away, may be it's time to pay
Why became you paralyzed
You have never been among deads yet
You will be between two sundry sides
There will be frustration in your eyes
Why you are running away, may be it's time to pay
Why became you paralyzed
The lyrics of Set Me Free by the metal band Exaloud explore the idea of feeling trapped by one's own consciousness and the desire to break free from it. The first line, "Set me free from my conscience" speaks to the idea that our own thoughts can become overwhelming and burdensome, and we often seek to escape from them. The second line, "I agree with the soul abscence," suggests that the singer has come to accept and even embrace their own emptiness or lack of soul, perhaps as a means of coping with their inner turmoil.
The next lines touch on the theme of time and its fleeting nature, with the phrase "Time goes fast there is no time to depart." This sense of urgency is followed by a suggestion that the consequences of one's actions can help to heal the heart, despite the difficult journey involved. The question "Why you are running away, may be it's time to pay" implies that the singer is avoiding some sort of punishment or reckoning, and that perhaps confronting their actions head-on would ultimately be more rewarding. The final line, "Why became you paralyzed" could be a reference to the fear or anxiety that can come with confronting one's own conscience.
Overall, the lyrics of Set Me Free highlight the difficulty of coping with one's own thoughts and actions, and the importance of facing them head-on in order to move forward.
