Rescue
Henry Ozark Lyrics

The lyrics of "Rescue" by Henry Ozark depict a sense of desperation and surrender to someone else's will, while at the same time expressing a desire for rescue. The repetition of the line "Kill and lock me in a jar" creates a feeling of being trapped and controlled, as if the singer is willing to submit to anything in order to be saved. The lyrics also suggest a fascination with the idea of being rescued by someone else, as the singer asks if their rescuer will sing them a tune and refers to them as an "architect of life."

The chorus repeats the plea for rescue, but also hints at a suspicion that the rescuer may have ulterior motives or may not have the singer's best interests at heart. The line "‘Cause I'm on to you, like you're on to the world" suggests a sense of unease and distrust, as if the singer is aware that their rescuer may not be as benevolent as they seem.

The final verse repeats the opening lines, emphasizing the sense of being trapped and willing to submit to anything to be saved, but also adds the line "For she needs to." This suggests that the singer may be addressing a specific person, possibly a lover or partner, and that they are willing to sacrifice themselves for this person's sake.

Overall, the lyrics of "Rescue" convey a sense of desperation and a willingness to surrender to someone else's will in order to be saved, while also expressing a hint of suspicion and distrust towards the rescuer.
