Sail
Kat Robichaud Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sail!

This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because
I blame it on my A.D.D. baby

This is how an angel dies
I blame it on my own sick pride
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself (myself)
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Maybe I'm a different breed
Maybe I'm not listening
So blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

La la la la la
La la la la la oh!
La la la la la,
La la la la la oh!
La la la la la,
La la la la la,

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me into the dark
Sail!




Sail with me
Sail!

Overall Meaning

The song “Sail” by Kat Robichaud is a powerful and intense song that has captured the hearts of many music lovers around the world. The song starts with the phrase “Sail!” which serves a dual purpose – it acts as a call to action for the listener and also as an introduction to the main chorus of the song. The lyrics suggest that the singer is dealing with a personal struggle, which she blames on her Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and her own pride.


The refrain “This is how I show my love” may initially seem like an odd fit for the angst-ridden verses, but it suggests that the singer is trying to get through her struggles by harnessing the power of her love. The juxtaposition of the two ideas – love and despair – creates a powerful tension that is central to the song.


The chorus, which is repeated throughout the song, takes on a new meaning each time it is sung. At times it seems to suggest that the singer is lost and searching for a way to move forward, while at other times it may signify a longing for the unknown, or even a desire for death. The lyrics “Sail with me into the dark” suggest a willingness to face the unknown and the possibility of failure, while the repeated use of “Sail!” implies that there might be hope and a way forward.


Overall, “Sail” by Kat Robichaud is a powerful and emotionally charged song that deals with complex themes of love, despair, and the struggle to move forward. It succeeds in creating an atmosphere that is both dark and hopeful, and the result is a song that lingers in the mind long after it has ended.
