LSU Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

She can take me to the place I love
Sometimes it's a hard place to find
Even when the heart is hardened
I see something in her eyes
Kick and screaming on the outside
Something hidden within
I think she knows about it
'Cause when she holds me close

I hear her soul

Hell no
I don't mind if your halo don't glow like it used to glow
I don't care if you change your mind every tempting road

She's always reaching out for heaven
Says it's a hard place to find
I swear and say its everywhere
Freed is the taker's line
Slip into the darkest color
Nothing but a stain to show
I think we both know we know about it
Cause when she holds me close I hear her soul

Hell no
I don't mind if your halo don't glow like it used to glow
I don't care if you change your mind with every tempting road

I'll be on your side with something here

To let you know
I don't care if your halo don't glow

Line by Line Meaning

She can take me to the place I love
She can take me to a special place that I cherish

Sometimes it's a hard place to find
The place she takes me to is often difficult to discover

Even when the heart is hardened
Even when I'm feeling emotionally distant and cold

I see something in her eyes
I can see a glimmer of hope and tenderness in her gaze

Kick and screaming on the outside
Even though she may put up a tough exterior

Something hidden within
There's something deeper and more vulnerable inside

I think she knows about it
I believe she's aware of that latent sensitivity

'Cause when she holds me close
Because I feel a deep emotional closeness to her when we're together

I hear her soul
I can sense and feel the depth of her emotions and innermost feelings

Hell no
Absolutely not

I don't mind if your halo don't glow like it used to glow
I don't care if you're not as pure or innocent as you once were

I don't care if you change your mind every tempting road
I'm not bothered by your propensity to change your mind or be swayed by different paths

She's always reaching out for heaven
She's constantly striving for spiritual fulfillment and a sense of transcendence

Says it's a hard place to find
But she acknowledges that it's a difficult destination to reach

I swear and say its everywhere
I passionately believe that heaven is all around us

Freed is the taker's line
Those who take control of their own lives are the ones who truly experience freedom

Slip into the darkest color
Allow yourself to embrace the more shadowy aspects of your soul

Nothing but a stain to show
Even the darkest parts of us only leave behind a faint mark

I think we both know we know about it
I believe that both of us are aware of these inner conflicts

Cause when she holds me close I hear her soul
And I can feel the depth of her emotions even more strongly when we're physically close

I'll be on your side with something here
I'll always support you, even if my own emotions are also conflicted

To let you know
So you can always count on me to be there for you

I don't care if your halo don't glow
I love you for who you are, flaws and all
