Lay It On Me
Kasbo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know how we did it
We went so off course
And now, you hide to numb your pain
Does this mean that we're over?
Gotta let me know
Yeah the ball is rolling past the two of us
And I'm caught in your mind but it's like you've had enough
I wish you'd just tell me to go
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo
I'm saying
We're caught in stone, you know we might not make it
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo, I'm saying
This love is holding us but are we gonna make it?
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo, I'm saying
Oh lay it on me yo, but are we gonna make it?
How did I go wrong?
Thought I'd belong, with you it's right now
I'm feeling afraid that I could lose you somehow
And I'm paddling fast, faster than fast
But are we slowly sinking?
Tell me, what are you thinking?
See the ball is rolling past the two of us
But your feet ain't moving, are you cool with us?
And I'm caught in your mind but it's like you've had enough
I wish you'd just tell me to go
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo
I'm saying
We're caught in stone you know we might not make it
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo, I'm saying
This love is holding us but are we gonna make it?
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo, I'm saying
We're caught in stone, you know we might not make it
Oh lay it on me yo, oh lay it on me yo, I'm saying
This love is holding us but are we gonna make it?
The lyrics to Kasbo's song "Lay It On Me" speak to the confusion and uncertainty that can arise in a relationship. The singer reflects on how they and their partner have lost their way, and aren't sure if they will be able to find their way back. There is a sense that the relationship is failing, and the singer is doing all they can to hold on to it. However, the partner seems to be distant and uncommunicative, causing the singer to question whether they should continue to fight for the relationship or let it go.
The line "See the ball is rolling past the two of us, but your feet ain't moving, are you cool with us?" suggests that the singer is proactively trying to save their relationship, while their partner seems to be aloof and uninvolved. The chorus repeats the plea "Lay it on me yo," which appears to be a call for honesty and openness between the two parties. The singer is asking their partner to communicate their true feelings, even if they are difficult to express.
Overall, the song captures the confusion and heartache that can come with a dying relationship. It portrays the struggle of trying to hold onto something that is slipping away, while also acknowledging the possibility that it may not work out in the end.
