Make It Out Alive
Nao Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hope I swim good, fuck the deal
If I fall I'ma take it down like a pill
Why you show me that cold love? Hate the chill
Pressure down my spine, ah yeah
It's all good, it's not real, it's 4-9
It's all nothing, no, no
To keep me a floating when I can't
But you know I won't
'Cause you know I'll
Fall too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
House burnt down, burnt down to the fucking ground
I don't even care now if I make it out
Can't get out my head, it's the atmosphere
Colours change, blue grass like the Lumineers
I'm too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
And how do we make it out alive?
I know something, I know something
I know we been here before
Cursed you out and then you haunt my shit
And leave me furthermore
In the dark with this pressure, is it over yet, my dear
Call on God, maybe tarots and cards deliver me from fear
I know something, she said something
Orange, yellow, white and red
I keep waiting, smoking, praying
That I won't fall outta heaven no more
No more
And maybe you'll find a way
To keep me a floating when I can't
'Cause you know I won't, 'cause you know I'll
Fall too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
House burnt down, burnt down to the fucking ground
I don't even care now if I make it out
Can't get out my head, It's the atmosphere
Colours change, blue grass like the Lumineers
I'm too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
How do we make it out alive?
And how do we make it?
Are we committed? No
Are you really here to ride or die?
Ain't no way we coming out alive
Is this what you want?
Now for the moment, woah
Why are we reckless when we care so much?
We never plan to get our hearts involved
I just hope that we ready if we fall
Fall too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
House burnt down, burnt down to the fucking ground
I don't even care now if I make it out
Can't get out my head, It's the atmosphere
Colours change, blue grass like the Lumineers
I'm too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
How will we make it out alive?

Line by Line Meaning
How the hell am I supposed to feel?
I'm not sure what emotions I should be experiencing
Hope I swim good, fuck the deal
I hope to stay above water regardless of circumstances
If I fall I'ma take it down like a pill
If I fail, I'll accept the consequences like swallowing a pill
Why you show me that cold love? Hate the chill
Why are you giving me love that doesn't feel genuine? It feels cold and uncomfortable
Pressure down my spine, ah yeah
I'm feeling a lot of pressure, it's making me anxious
It's all good, it's not real, it's 4-9
It may seem like everything is okay, but it's not; it's like a fake phone number
It's all nothing, no, no
To me, it's all meaningless
And maybe you'll find a way
To keep me a floating when I can't
But you know I won't
'Cause you know I'll
Perhaps you can help me stay afloat when I'm struggling, but realistically I won't let you because I'm too stubborn
Fall too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
House burnt down, burnt down to the fucking ground
I don't even care now if I make it out
Can't get out my head, it's the atmosphere
Colours change, blue grass like the Lumineers
I'm too deep, too deep to get outta here
Too deep, too deep to get outta here
I've fallen too deep into this situation and it's like my world has crumbled down, but I'm numb to the point where I don't even care if I survive. I'm trapped in my own thoughts and surroundings
And how do we make it out alive?
What's the plan to survive this?
I know something, I know something
I know we been here before
Cursed you out and then you haunt my shit
And leave me furthermore
In the dark with this pressure, is it over yet, my dear
Call on God, maybe tarots and cards deliver me from fear
I've been in similar situations before and after arguing with you, I'm left with negative feelings. I'm in this dark place and wondering if it will ever end. I'm reaching out to spirituality and asking for guidance
I know something, she said something
Orange, yellow, white and red
I keep waiting, smoking, praying
That I won't fall outta heaven no more
No more
I have some insight or intuition about something, maybe related to colors. I'm waiting and trying to cope by smoking and praying that I won't lose my sense of hope
Are we committed? No
Are you really here to ride or die?
Ain't no way we coming out alive
Is this what you want?
Now for the moment, woah
Why are we reckless when we care so much?
We never plan to get our hearts involved
I just hope that we ready if we fall
We're not fully committed, and I'm questioning if we truly have each other's back. We won't survive this if things continue the way they are. I'm wondering if this is really what you want, right now. We're acting careless even though we both have strong feelings for each other. We didn't intend to fall in love so quickly, and I hope we're prepared for any potential outcomes
How will we make it out alive?
I'm still wondering what the plan is to survive this

Just her voice. Sometimes im working and just hear her without listening.
@eyj5152
This song helped me through numerous depths of depression and continually I come back to nao not just as my favorite artist but whenever I’m missing that piece in my life. Her breadth of writing and music is incredibly connected and it’s hard to not fall in love with her
