Broken Wings
Gabriel Cyphre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will warm the blood inside your veins
When you will feel so lost inside
Take my hand and rise with me again
Blood, pump, blood, pump
I am from a perfect world
You're not an useless whore
Don't let them use you anymore
When something sharp will break your wings
I will give you another way to fly
When you will feel so scarred and bleeding
I will be right there to dry your eyes
Blood, pump, blood, pump
I am from a perfect world
The same that killed me once before
You're not an useless whore
Don't let them use you anymore
Never never never more, never never never fucking more
The lyrics in Gabriel Cyphre's song "Broken Wings" speak to a theme of resilience and support for those who are struggling with their thoughts and experiences. The first few lines imply that the listener may be going through a difficult time and their mind is feeling cold and possibly disconnected. The singer then offers them a comforting hand, promising to warm the blood inside of their veins and bring them back to life. The repeated phrase "Blood, pump, blood, pump" may represent the beating of the heart which serves as a physical reminder of life and vitality.
The chorus of the song focuses on the idea that the singer has been through a trying experience in the same utopian ("perfect world") setting that the listener might currently inhabit. The idea that this perfect world could also be dangerous and unforgiving is a commentary on the nature of such societies. The singer reassures the listener that they are not useless or worth less than anyone else and that they should not allow themselves to be used and abused.
When something sharp breaks the listener's wings, the singer promises to provide another way to fly. This line speaks to the idea of resilience and the ability to find ways to move forward even when it seems impossible. The singer acknowledges that the listener may be bruised and hurt ("scarred and bleeding") but assures them that they will be there to comfort and support them.
