Deeper Love
Madelyne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We were angry
For being tied up to our lives
We always mourned
As the days passed by
We were shatterd
And we guided
The great unknown
And no more run and hide x2
We were heartless
We were in need
We thought life life is just that way
We were searching for love in the dead of night
We couldn't see it
Couldn't find it
Wouldn't get it anyway
Another rock
And we feel out of mind
Get in your car and drive
Into the the fading light of day
Find the living boy
Someone to take your breath away
Beautiful child
Take the ride into the light of day
Beautiful child
No one else is gonna give you away
Beautiful child x4
Beautiful child
Beautiful child
Beautiful child
Beautiful child
The lyrics of Madelyne's song "Beautiful Child" convey a message of hope and encouragement to those who are feeling lost and alone. The opening lines of the song suggest a sense of despair and frustration with life, with the singer and/or their intended audience feeling trapped and directionless. However, this dark mood is soon countered by a more optimistic outlook, with the suggestion that they might find purpose and direction by embracing the challenges of the unknown.
The second verse seems to address feelings of self-doubt and a lack of self-worth, with the singer acknowledging that they have been searching for love in all the wrong places, unable to see or find the love that they need. In response to this, they urge their audience to "get in your car and drive" towards a new sense of possibility and adventure, seeking out the living, breathing world around them and the people who inhabit it. The repetition of the phrase "beautiful child" at the end of the song seems to reinforce this idea of the individual as a cherished and worthwhile creation, reminding the listener of their inherent beauty, regardless of their current circumstances.
