Guardian Angel
Marina V Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To carry more than one can bear?
Can you empathize?
I didn't ask for advice
I only wanted you to care
Didn't ask for much
I've been looking for my guardian angel
I've been searching for someone to save me
But I'm losing my hope
You could save my life
If I could keep you on the phone
It seems you never tried
I guess in time
We walk this nowhere road alone
Never knowing we could share the ride
I've been losing my mind
I've been searching for signs I'll never find
In the evening sky
Will I ever know?

Do you know what it's like
Have you ever experienced the weight I carry?
To carry more than one can bear?
Shouldering burdens beyond one's strength
Can you empathize?
Can you understand and feel my pain?
I didn't ask for advice
I don't need guidance, just an ear to listen
I only wanted you to care
All I needed was your concern and support
Didn't ask for much
My plea wasn't too much to ask for
I've been looking for my guardian angel
I've been seeking a savior, a protector
Cause I can't make it alone
I'm unable to survive on my own
I've been searching for someone to save me
I need someone to rescue me from despair
But I'm losing my hope
My optimism dwindles as time passes
You could save my life
You have the power to rescue me
If I could keep you on the phone
If only we could have more moments together
It seems you never tried
It seems like you never cared enough to make an effort
I guess in time
Perhaps, eventually
We walk this nowhere road alone
Everyone is alone in their journey, despite being surrounded by others
Never knowing we could share the ride
We never consider the possibility of companionship until it's too late
I've been losing my mind
I've been feeling overwhelmed and mentally unstable
I've been searching for signs I'll never find
I've been futilely seeking signs of hope and direction
In the evening sky
During the peaceful moments of the day
Will I ever know?
Will I ever discover the answers I desperately seek?
