Broken Wings
Imperia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

An unbreakable heart, cause it's already broken
Empty eyes, cause my soul got stolen
My skin as ice, cause I don't get touched by warmth
My skin as ice, day and night both so empty

Broken wings, the wind touches my face
Silent scream - a silent scream in the night
Wanna dance naked in the rain
The drops like fingertips on my body
A forgotten smile but it's still in me
Where is it kept, away...
Dreams come to me at day, wishes at night
Both holding around me..

As I...
As I spread my...

Broken wings, the wind touches my face
Silent scream - a silent scream in the night

Will the time bring back what was in me
What I missed that got lost
What seemed to be real was just an illusion that got found

Broken wings, broken wings
The wind touches my face
Silent scream, a silent scream
In the night

Take my hand
I'll lead you out of no mans land




Please take my hand
Take my hand

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Imperia's song "Broken Wings" describe a complex emotional state of the singer who feels broken and empty inside. The opening lines "An unbreakable heart, cause it's already broken, Empty eyes, cause my soul got stolen" express the idea of a loss so profound that it becomes a part of the person, making them feel unbreakable. The singer describes feeling frozen and untouched by warmth, highlighting a sense of detachment from others and perhaps even from themselves.


As the song progresses, the singer expresses a desire to feel alive again, to dance naked in the rain and feel the raindrops as if they were fingertips on the skin. The lines "Dreams come to me at day, wishes at night, Both holding around me.." express the longing for something more, while acknowledging the struggle to find a way out of the loneliness and pain. The chorus "Broken wings, the wind touches my face, Silent scream - a silent scream in the night" repeats several times throughout the song, underscoring the sense of loss, loneliness and sorrow.


In the final verse of the song, the singer struggles with the idea that what they had thought was real, was in fact only an illusion, that they must come to terms with the fact that things will never be the same again. However, the final lines of the song "Take my hand, I'll lead you out of no man's land, please take my hand, take my hand" offer an expression of hope, the idea that even though things may feel dark and empty right now, there is a way out of the pain, there is a way to find connection and light once again.
