Picture Me
Grace Sahertian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh. my voice, fix me
I always find you in the dark
But there's a time that you hide
I know I'm far away from home
But I know I'm not alone
Please hold me through the night
I feel so small in this great big world
Sometimes I wish I could just disappear
I lost myself along the way
Then all my reveries slowly to fade away
As the sun goes down, and says goodbye
All the stars comes out, and shine for me
I always find you in the dark
But there's a time that you hide
I know I'm far away from home
But I know I'm not alone
Please hold me through the night
In the song "Picture Me" by Grace Sahertian, the lyrics express a sense of longing for comfort and stability in a world that can feel overwhelming and lonely. The first two lines, "Oh. my rock, comfort me. Oh. my voice, fix me," call out for something or someone to provide support and guidance. The repeat of "oh my" emphasizes the depth of this longing and the urgency in needing help.
The next lines describe the experience of feeling lost and alone, but still being able to find a ray of hope in the darkness. "I always find you in the dark, but there's a time that you hide" speaks to the idea that even when things seem hopeless, there is still the possibility of finding comfort and love. The following lines reiterate that even though the singer is far away from home, she is not alone and pleads for someone to hold her through the night.
The bridge of the song describes the singer's feeling of smallness in the grand scheme of things and the desire to disappear. She laments having lost herself along the way and how her dreams and desires have slowly dwindled. However, the chorus ends on a hopeful note, with the rising of the stars and the reminder that even in the darkness, there is still light and beauty to be found. Ultimately, the song is a journey from despair to hope, with the promise of comfort and love along the way.
