Wake Up
Holy Now Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am trying, I am trying,
Let me find a space,
I am dying, I think I'm dying,
And tell me something else,
I haven't heard before,
You know I heard it all,
And? where my heart belongs,
I'm gonna break it apart,
I'm gonna be some up at night
I'm gonna turn it around and try some things and hide,
Cause my heart is a shell,
Dont let anything ever ever fill it up,
So let me breathe again,
I am trying, I am trying,
Let me get a space I am dying,
I think I'm dying,
And tell me something new,
I can relate to,
I always wanted to,
And real me back again,
To where my heart belongs,
You know I dont belong.
Falling slowly, wake up every time
Falling slowly, wake up every time
Falling slowly, wake up every time
Falling slowly, wake up every time
Falling slowly, wake up every, wake up every time.

They claim that their heart is a shell and they do not want to allow anything to fill it up. They describe a sense of trying and failing, and wanting to hide from the world. However, they still long for something new, something that can help them open up and feel real again. The repeated refrain of "Falling slowly, wake up every time" emphasizes that even though the singer wants to rest, they are unable to fully fall asleep because of their emotional struggles.
