Lead Me in the Dark
Hunting Stories Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love, take it back
This is not the place or time
Settle up your bones and drive

And hope I can hope
Turning through the endless signs
Burning up the engine lights
And I would hold you to my side
I would run for miles and miles
Carry all your ghosts and lies
With you, with you
While you lead us in the dark

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Lead us in the dark
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Lead us in the dark

Love, don't be shy
We were terrors at first sight
Lovers of the worst design

And here, here I'll freeze
Fingers on the dashboard side
Waiting for the cold to rise

I would hold you to my side
I would run for miles and miles
Carry all your ghosts and lies
With you, with you
While you lead us in the dark
Lead us in the dark
Lead us in the ...

I would hold you to my side
I would run for miles and miles
Carrie this is where I'll lie
With you, with you





While you lead us in the dark

Overall Meaning

The song Lead Me in the Dark by Hunting Stories seems to be a song about a couple on a road trip together, navigating through the uncertainties and complexities of their relationship. The lyrics suggest that they're experiencing a rough patch, with lines like "Love, take it back" and "Lovers of the worst design", yet the singer is still committed to the journey - "I would hold you to my side / I would run for miles and miles / Carry all your ghosts and lies / With you, with you." The repetition of the phrase "Lead us in the dark" reinforces the idea that they're traveling blindly, with neither a clear destination nor a roadmap.


The imagery in the song is powerful, with the car functioning as a metaphor for the relationship. The phrase "Settle up your bones and drive" indicates that the couple needs to confront their issues and actively work on their relationship in order to move forward. The idea of "Carry(ing) all your ghosts and lies" suggests that both partners have emotional baggage that they are bringing with them on the journey. Overall, the song suggests that even though the path may be dark and uncertain, as long as they are together, they can weather any storm.
