Echo
Hardwell Feat. Matthew Koma & Bebe Rexha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Silence screams so loud
Trying to break through, anyway, to you
Tears fall like rain
And I can see your pain
It's time to fix you up again
For your love
I'd take the sun from the sky
And I will never let go
For your love
I will climb any mountain
Stand at the top shouting out and
You'll hear my love pouring down
Like an echo
The world is frozen now
Leaves all on the ground
And know, it feels the sun will never return
But up here in the sky
On this mountain high
Above the clouds the light still shines
For your love
I'd take the sun from the sky
I'd steal the moon from the night
And I will never let go
For your love
I'll climb any mountain
Stand at the top shouting out and
You'll hear my love pouring down
Like an echo-o-o
You're my echo-o-o
I'll might love it with my lo-o-o
From my echo
Like an echo-o-o
You're my echo-o-o
I'll might love it with my lo-o-o
From my echo
The song "Echo" by Hardwell featuring Matthew Koma and Bebe Rexha is a poignant love song. The first verse illustrates how the singer is feeling, attempting to break through to the person he loves but is separated from. He can see their pain and is determined to fix them up again. The chorus emphasizes how far the singer is willing to go for the person he loves. He'd take the sun from the sky, steal the moon from the night, climb any mountain, and stand at the top, shouting out his love. The metaphor of an echo is used to describe how his love will pour down on the person he loves, no matter the distance between them.
The second verse talks about how the world feels like it's frozen, and the leaves are on the ground, with no hope that the sun will return. However, the singer believes that above the clouds, the light still shines, showing his commitment to love and hope in the situation. The chorus repeats, with emphasis on the idea that the person is the singer's "echo," and his love will reverberate back to them, no matter the distance.
Overall, the song is about one person's deep love and commitment to another, despite physical separation. The idea of an echo is used to emphasize this idea, stating that the love will always reverberate back like the returning sound wave.

We're a million lonely people
All together on this needle, in the sky;
Afraid of heights.
And your dreams were made illegal
By the laws of lesser evil
We call life.
But not tonight.
I dare you to love;
I dare you to cry;
I dare you to run;
I dare you to try.
I dare you to fall,
And lay on the ground.
I dare you to feel;
I dare you to be here now
You're an outline of a vision
That you had when we were children,
Yesterday;
You watch it fade.
Let your heart be your religion -
Let it break you out of this prison
You became.
It's not too late.
I dare you to love
I dare you to cry;
I dare you to run;
I dare you to try;
I dare you to fall,
And lay on the ground.
I dare you to feel;
I dare you to be here now
I dare you...
I dare you...
