Wanted
Rachel Diggs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't think you're strong
But when the sky is falling
You feel like you belong
It might not be obvious
But you're not alone
We're going to let you wander
And I don't know if I can help you
You could tell me all you need
Its all right, You're wanted
Tonight it's alright
You're wanted
And your expectations
Are killing you slow
You're getting what you wanted
But pain is all you know
You've got a new life now
There's much that you see
But those that really know you
Are few and far between
And I don't know if they will help you
Do you tell them all you need?
Its all right you're wanted
Tonight it's alright
You're wanted
And you couldn't be more wrong
When you say it won't be long
Til the stars are gone
And you, you've got to see
When you bleed you're never free
'cause life's not that easy.
But tonight its alright
You're wanted
Tonight it's alright
You're wanted
Tonight it's alright
You're wanted
The song "Wanted" by Rachel Diggs, speaks to people who feel lost and alone in this world. The first stanza is about how the person doesn't think they are special or strong, but when life is falling apart, they feel like they belong. The second stanza talks about how they have high expectations for their life that are slowly killing them. They are getting what they wanted, but pain is all they know.
The chorus reassures the person that they are wanted and not alone. The singer is unsure if they can help the person, but they are there to listen and support. The song acknowledges that life can be tough, but tonight it's alright, and the person is wanted.
Perhaps the most inspiring aspect of "Wanted" is the message that even when things are tough, there is always someone who needs you, who values who you are. The song encourages people to reach out to others and to remember that they are never truly alone. Despite the difficulty of life, the chorus tells us that it is "alright" and that we can find happiness even in the darkest of times.
