Say My Name
Max Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out on the edge of town
Surveying my stomping ground
Hoping against all hope
That I will make my way out
Can’t keep stepping these steps to
The same old beat
The same old dance, yeah this two-step in my circumstance
So baby,
Take me on a journey up North
Seeing things we could never have dreamed
Hold me harder babe than ever before
To feel the blood flow in your veins
Hide my eyes to keep the mystery alive
I’ll hear you whispering calling my name
I’ve never been one to lead the steps
So take my arms, and sway with me
No need to bring your own romance
There’s plenty here for us to share
So baby,
Take me on a journey up North
Seeing things we could never have dreamed
Hold me harder babe than ever before
To feel the blood flow in your veins
Hide my eyes to keep the mystery alive
I’ll hear you whispering calling my name, name




Calling my name
Calling my name

Overall Meaning

The singer feels trapped in their current situation, their "stomping ground," and longs for something more meaningful and exciting.

The solution lies in the hands of a romantic partner, who is urged to guide and sweep the singer off their feet. The journey up North is a symbol of the unknown and unexplored, a place where they can see and experience things they never thought possible. The physical act of holding and swaying together is a representation of the intimacy and connection the singer desires. The mystery of being blindfolded allows for a sense of danger and excitement, heightening the experience and making it unforgettable.


Overall, the lyrics of "Say My Name" are a plea for adventure, romance, and passion in a world that can often feel mundane and repetitive. It encourages the listener to take a risk, to follow their heart, and to embrace the unknown.
