The Unknown
Madeline Juno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a next step
I won't hold you back
You ain't got nothing to lose anymore
I know it's hard
To find a light in the dark
When you can't even see the stars.
God only knows what you're fighting for
Just don't give in
'Cause I know
You can resist
if you want
I'll be right here
In time you'll see
where you're meant to be
and I'll follow you
into the unknown (into the unknown)
Hold on to this world
Keep your feet upon the ground
'Cause baby, heaven can wait
Of all the things you've lost
You miss your heart the most
and you can barely see
that.
.You're the only one to know which way to go
I'll run along with you
'Cause I know
You can resist
if you want
I'll be right here
In time you'll see
where you're meant to be
and I'll follow you
As the fog clears
your blinded eyes can see
you're weightless
no more apathy
and I can feel your heartbeat, your heartbeat
'Cause I know
You can resist
if you want
I'll be right here
right here by your side
In time you'll see
where you're meant to be
and I'll follow you
You... you...
I will follow you...
Into the unknown...
You... you...
I will follow you...
Into the unknown...
The song "The Unknown" by Madeline Juno is a powerful anthem about taking a leap of faith into unchartered territory. The verses speak to the difficulty of finding hope in dark times, but the chorus offers a glimmer of possibility and support from a trusted companion. The first verse acknowledges the fear that comes with stepping into the unknown, but encourages the listener to keep moving forward. The second verse speaks to the loss of oneself and the struggle to find direction, while also emphasizing the individual's intuition as the ultimate guide.
The chorus is where the song really shines. The repetition of the phrase "I'll be right here" creates a sense of comfort and certainty in an otherwise uncertain situation. The lyrics give the listener permission to resist the fear and doubt, and to trust that they will eventually find their way. The bridge is an especially poignant moment in the song, as the fog clears and the listener can see a way forward. The mention of feeling the heartbeat highlights the physical and emotional relief that accompanies taking a chance and finding resilience.
Overall, "The Unknown" is a moving call to action for anyone who is feeling lost or stuck. It recognizes the difficulty of moving forward, but also speaks to the power of resilience and hope. The idea of being able to resist fear and doubt with the support of someone else is a universal message that will resonate with many listeners.
