Save My Soul
Love Automatic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna start a revolution
I'm gonna let the future go
I'm gonna hand over control
To save my soul I'm gonna start a revolution
I'm gonna let the future go
I'm gonna hand over control
It's closing in
A death sentence served for all your sins
All the vultures that circle round
Will pick you clean if you lay down
I live half my life to stumble
I live the other half to climb
I'm in the clouds somewhere outlined
Shadow in the sunshine (?)
Works so hard for mine (?)
I'm gonna start my revolution
I'm gonna let the future go
I'm gonna hand over control
To save my soul x4
The lyrics of Love Automatic's "Save My Soul" express a strong desire for change and a need to take control of one's life, even if it means starting a revolution. The singer acknowledges that the future looks bleak and the consequences of past mistakes are catching up. The imagery of vultures circling around is a clear representation of the singer's fear of being destroyed by their own wrongdoings. The singer is determined to take charge, even if it means letting go of the past and surrendering control.
The chorus repeats the phrase "To save my soul" four times, emphasizing the singer's desperation for change and a chance at redemption. The second verse speaks of the singer's struggles and the effort it takes to move forward in life. The line "I'm in the clouds somewhere outlined" may suggest a sense of being lost or disconnected from reality. The final lines of the verse express determination and hard work: "Works so hard for mine."
Overall, the song's message is one of hope and resilience. Despite the difficulties faced, the singer is willing to take risks and make changes to save themselves. The use of revolution as a metaphor for change adds a powerful and rebellious tone to the song.

Man this band project could've gotten big with some more viral songs. Songs all have great dance potential, would be awesone on some EDM festivals and many people who like Pendulum would probably also love the vocals.

The singer is in a band called 8 Graves now, if you aren't aware. Great shit, a bit less dancy but genuinely one of my favorites
