Hold me
New Better Spring Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I feel like I'm not here
How long does it take
To make my point clear
That I'm, I'm drowning
That I'm drowning
In my own tears
Go ahead and do what you gotta do
I've had enough of this scene here
And now I notice baby
Nothing left to lose
Just go ahead and leave me
Go ahead and do what you gotta do
Go ahead and leave me
I'll try to make it easy for you
I'm doing my best here
And I'm doing it all 'cause of you
Dear here we are now
Back in the good old square one
And I just wanna run
And hide, hide
But my feet don't carry me
Just won't carry me
No more
Go ahead and leave me
Go ahead and do what you gotta do
I've had enough of this scene here
And now I notice baby
Nothing left to lose
Just go ahead and leave me
Go ahead and do what you gotta do
Go ahead and leave me
I'll try to make it easy for you
I'm doing my best here
And I'm doing it all 'cause of you
I let you go
And leave me
May I still follow you
The song "Hold Me" by the New Better Spring Band explores the feeling of being lost and alone in a relationship. The lyrics open with the singer feeling invisible, as if the person they are singing to cannot even see them. They feel like they are drowning in their own tears, unable to effectively communicate their feelings. This is a universal feeling that many people can relate to; feeling as though someone important to you is not truly seeing or understanding you can be incredibly isolating.
The singer then seems to shift gears and tell the person they are singing to go ahead and leave them if that is what they need to do. They are tired of this emotional turmoil and conflict, and believe that leaving is the best solution. They are resigned to the fact that there is nothing left to lose, and that letting go could be the best option. However, the singer still wants to make it clear that they are doing their best to navigate this difficult situation, all because of the other person.
In the final verse, the singer seems to be asking to be let go, yet still wanting to follow the other person. This suggests a deep attachment or dependency, which could be what is causing the turmoil in the first place. The tangled emotions and conflicting desires conveyed in this song make it relatable and memorable for anyone who has found themselves in a complicated relationship.

Dear can you see me
I feel like I'm invisible, can you acknowledge me?
'Cause I feel like I'm not here
I feel ignored and insignificant
How long does it take
I wonder how much clearer I need to make my point
To make my point clear
So you can understand me
That I'm, I'm drowning
I'm struggling and overwhelmed by my emotions
That I'm drowning
I feel like I'm suffocating with my own sorrows
In my own tears
I am so sad that my tears are asphyxiating me
Go ahead and leave me
You can go away, I don't want you here anymore
Go ahead and do what you gotta do
Do what you need to do, I won't try to stop you
I've had enough of this scene here
I am sick and tired of this situation
And now I notice baby
I see things more clearly now, my eyes are open
Nothing left to lose
I have nothing left to protect or lose
I'll try to make it easy for you
I will do my best to not make things harder for you
I'm doing my best here
I am trying my hardest
And I'm doing it all 'cause of you
I'm doing it because of you, for you
Dear here we are now
We are back to the beginning
Back in the good old square one
We are back to where we started
And I just wanna run
I wish to escape, to leave this situation behind
And hide, hide
To conceal myself from the world
But my feet don't carry me
I am paralyzed, I can't move
Just won't carry me
I can't get away
No more
I am stuck
I let you go
I am allowing you to leave
And leave me
I am accepting that you are leaving me
May I still follow you
Can I still be with you, even if you are leaving?

A friend of mine referred this song to me.
6 days ago, I was delivered from half a platoon of demons:
Anger, Unforgiveness, Hatred, Self-Condemnation and Self-Hatred, Autism, Asthma, Deceit...Almost 17 years some of these were with me. (had a rough, rough childhood...).
But TWO days after I turned 22, the Lord brought the right people at the right place for me and I was delivered after 2 hours of fighting. At the end, I did two things:
1 - Whispered Jesus' name which became louder
2 - I shouted with full might "SATAN GET THE F*** OUT OF ME! OUT!!!!" and with my last effort I declared this in Jesus name. And I was freed.
TWO hours...
And now, I am freed, redeemed, whole, healed from my Asthma and Autism...and I am His!
I made this persona Psalm about it:
"The lies I once believed are broken down,
No more Hatred, no more Anger,
No more Self-condemnation and unforgiveness,
No more autism and asthma,
And no more suicidal thoughts!
What the Devil meant for evil,
You Jesus have turned around for even greater good!
What I once believed about myself,
You Jesus have broken down and replaced!
What people once said about me no longer matters,
For what You say, Jesus, matters now!
You have set me free, forever,
You have shown me Life eternal,
And given it freely!
You remember naught of my sins,
Condemnation is a foreign language to you!
You have filled me with joy and a song of victory!
I once thought the worst of myself,
Yet you sang over me with great plans,
I once lived the contrast to your plans,
And walked a path filled with shade and darkness,
But You called me Your Own,
And I am set free forever!
Now the Devil and his angels shall tremble,
They have seen your works many times over,
And anguish fills them as they see deliverance;
Yet You and Your many Angels shall shout in triumph,
The Heavenly host fills up with rejoicing,
And Hope radiates from them as they see deliverance!"
