Bed
SYML Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the foot of your bed
Guess I was lost
Guess I got in over my head
Finger to lips
In the blink of an eye
I fell to my knees
I will pray to you tonight
But you didn't wanna fall, you didn't wanna fall
We could die
But you're what I live for, you're what I live for
My skin hurts without your touch
I didn't wanna think or ask too much but I
I didn't know better
Kids in the dark
In the still of the night
Nobody around
High above the city lights
We could fly
But you didn't wanna fall, you didn't wanna fall
We could die
But you're what I live for, you're what I live for
In the still of the night
You need to believe
I will be here
Yes, I will be waiting to receive
We could fly
I will never let you fall, I'll never let you fall
We can fly
I will never let you fall, I'll never let you fall
In the still of the night
We can fly
We can fly
Guess I got in over my head
In the still of the night
We can fly
SYML's song "Bed" is a hauntingly beautiful song that is open to interpretation. The first verse begins with the line "In the still of the night, at the foot of your bed". The image of a person standing at the end of someone's bed in the middle of the night creates a sense of unease, and suggests that the person speaking may be someone who is not supposed to be there. The following lines, "Guess I was lost, guess I got in over my head" further emphasize this point, as if the person speaking is admitting they made a mistake by being there. The finger to lips gesture implies a sense of secrecy or a warning to be quiet, as if the person speaking is afraid of getting caught.
The chorus of the song repeats the same lines about flying and falling, which suggests that the person speaking is trying to convince the other person to take a risk with them. The line "But you're what I live for" indicates that the person speaking is deeply invested in the other person, and is willing to take a chance for them. The second verse adds more context to the situation, as the line "My skin hurts without your touch" suggests that the person speaking is deeply in love with the other person, but is perhaps not getting the love they need in return. The image of "kids in the dark" further emphasizes the idea of taking risks in the face of fear and uncertainty.
The final chorus ends with a message of reassurance, as the person speaking promises to "never let you fall". Overall, "Bed" is a song about taking risks, being willing to make mistakes, and loving someone deeply enough to take chances with them.

When the world is quiet and devoid of distractions
At the foot of your bed

I ask for silence
In the blink of an eye
Quickly, suddenly

Kids in the dark
We are like children in the unknown and unexplored
Nobody around
It's just us in this moment
High above the city lights
We can rise above the chaos and noise of the world

in the still of the night
at the foot of your bed
Guess i was lost
i guess i've got in over my head
finger to lips
in the blink of an eye
i fell to my knees
i will pray to you tonight
we could fly
but you didn’t wanna fall
you didn’t wanna fall
we could die
but you’re what I live for
you’re what I live for
my skin hurts without your touch
i didn’t wanna think or ask too much but i
i didn’t know better
kids in the dark
in the still of the night
nobody around
high above the city lights
we could fly
but you didn’t wanna fall
you didn’t wanna fall
we could die
but you’re what I live for
you’re what I live for
in the still of the night
you need to believe
i will be here
yes i will be waiting to receive
we could fly
i will never let you fall
i’ll never let you fall
we can fly
i will never let you fall
i’ll never let you fall
in the still of the night
