Bring Me to Life
Jenkins Katherine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run
Before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I'm without
You can´t just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run
Before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead
Bid my blood to run
Before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
In "Bring Me to Life," the singer is dealing with a deep sense of numbness and disconnection from the world, feeling like their spirit is "sleeping somewhere cold" and unable to fully come alive. However, they reach out to a significant other who has the power to wake them up, to "bid [their] blood to run" and save them from the darkness and emptiness they've been feeling. The singer is pleading to their significant other to wake them up from the abyss they have been trapped in and guide them towards the path of light and life. The lyrics express a sense of desperation and longing for someone to bring the singer back to the world of the living, to breathe life into them and make them feel real again.
The chorus’ recurring phrase “Wake me up inside” and the line “bring me to life,” along with the strong vocals, emphasize the intensity of emotions that the singer is experiencing. The line "Only you are the life among the dead" further emphasizes the point of the singer’s desperation for their love interest, emphasizing that without them, they feel like they are no different than the "dead." Overall, the lyrics narrate a story of a lost soul looking for someone to bring them back to life and give them purpose.
