Save Me Now
Go:Audio Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It started on a morning around one week ago
I was answering to questions which I don't even know
And from then on it went on and went on
I noticed more and more

But when you're coming out with phrases that your dad only says
You gotta admit that you can't let it go
And all is not OK

Help me out, is it just me
Falling down
If only I knew why

Please save me now
I don't know what to say
I'm starting to like staying in
The world can keep away

Please save me now
What am I to do?
Every single day I get more and more like you

Sitting doing nothing but I'm more than content
And then I'll go and mow the lawn
It's such a happy event
What's going on, going on, going on?
Something's wrong with me

Help me out, is it just me
Falling down
If I only I knew why

Please save me now
Don't know what to say
I'm starting to like staying in
The world can keep away

Please save me now
What am I to do?
Every single day I get more and more

Kinda got the feeling
That nothing can stop this going
And that's not alright
Turning into what you dread is worse than what you're thinking
Until you've seen it

Please save me now
I don't know what to say
I'm starting to like staying in
The world can keep away

Please save me now
I don't know what to say
I'm starting to like staying in
The world can keep away

Please save me now

What am I to do?
Every single day I get more and more like you.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Go:Audio's "Save Me Now" seem to describe a person who is struggling with some kind of internal crisis. The song implies that this crisis may have begun weeks prior, with the singer answering questions they "don't even know". As time passes, things seem to worsen, with the singer feeling as though they're "falling down". There is also a suggestion that this person is becoming more like somebody (likely their father) who they perhaps don't want to resemble. However, there is some hope in the lyrics. The singer is asking for help, for someone to "save me now", implying that perhaps they have recognized their need for support.

The lyrics use a lot of metaphors, such as "I'm starting to like staying in / The world can keep away", or "And then I'll go and mow the lawn / It's such a happy event". These metaphors seem to emphasize the idea that the singer is isolating themselves, and is perhaps finding solace in mundane activities. This again suggests a person who is struggling with something significant.

Overall, the song seems to describe a person in crisis, who is searching for help and support. The lyrics emphasize the isolating nature of this struggle, and the importance of reaching out to others for assistance.
