Echoes
Rising Over Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've heard that you have some plans that won't involve me at all
I'll wait till you'll fall
I'll just let you go
Another day is fading away and i'm still searching for whats left of all your promises
I've heard that you have some plans that won't involve me at all
I'll just let you go
I'm so sorry if i couldn't fill the space that you created for me
Will the thought of me survive in your head? Or have you erased everything yet?
I'm still hearing your lies
They echo in my head
I'm stuck in your seas
I'm a slave of your will
I'll watch you fall apart from right where you left me
I'm so sorry if i couldn't fill the space that you created for me
Will the thought of me survive in your head? Or have you erased everything yet?
The lyrics of Rising Over's song Echoes speak about the pain of a failed relationship and the inability to move on from the memories and promises made. The singer opens the song with a line that highlights the passing of time and the increasing desperation to find something tangible left over from the promises made. The second line hints at the absence of the singer in the plans the person mentioned in the song has, indicating the end of the relationship. The following lines talk about waiting for the other person's downfall, implying that the singer still has hope for reconciliation, but then soon after, the singer accepts the inevitable and resolves to let go.
The chorus is a repetition of the first verse, accentuating the singer's despair and the struggle to come to terms with the reality of the situation. The second half of the song is an emotional admittance of culpability and an apology for not being enough. The line "I'm stuck in your seas" symbolizes being submerged in the emotions and memories of the relationship, while being unable to escape the pain. The singer acknowledges the lies told repeatedly by the other person, which continue to echo in the singer's head, causing emotional turmoil. The closing line talks about watching the other person's downfall but still apologizes for not being able to fulfill the space created for them.

I'm trapped in the turbulence of the relationship with you
I'm a slave to your will
I am powerless to your desires
I'll watch you fall apart from right where you left me
I'll observe as you break down from the exact same location where you deserted me
