Barefoot
Seb Adams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm dancing barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Took a hurricane for me to find where I belong
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Got a lot to say
So I'll make a lot of noise
I'm barefoot
Yeah I'm barefoot
You probably wonder how I got myself into this mess
So let me tell you a little story about myself
I was running around aimlessly until my death
Haunting the village until that moment I got lost again
One night I died twice
Couldn't find rest
So I lit a candle and started to find a way back
Walked the soles off my shoes but I couldn't slack
Had to push through if I ever wanted my life back
Before I even noticed
Darkest of clouds above me
Circling around like a bunch of hungry vultures
It's going down soon
But I got nothing to lose
So screw it
All I'm gonna do is dance barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Took a hurricane for me to find where I belong
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Got a lot to say
So I'll make a lot of noise
I'm barefoot
Yeah I'm barefoot
Okay so I tend to look down to the puddle I stepped in a lot
Or look up to the storm that I'm trapped in a lot
But if I never looked around me I'd never have seen
That it isn't only me who's having difficulties
With breathing or being in general
I can not believe how hard somebody can fall
Just by endlessly spiraling in their mind
If you recognize yourself here
I dare you to step outside and breathe
And when the skies are coming down
We should take a look around
Find solace in knowing
That we are not alone when
We are facing darker clouds
We can't let 'em wipe us out
Find solace in knowing
That we are not alone when
We're dancing barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Took a hurricane for us to find where we belong
We're barefoot
In the eye of the storm
If you got something to say you better make some noise
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Took a hurricane for me to find where I belong
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Got a lot to say
So I'll make a lot of noise
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm
Took a hurricane for me to find where I belong
I'm barefoot
In the eye of the storm




Got a lot to say
So I'll make a lot of noise I'm

That we have support and companionship when


We are facing darker clouds
We are confronting challenging and difficult circumstances


We can't let 'em wipe us out
We mustn't allow these difficulties to overcome and defeat us


If you got something to say you better make some noise
If you have something important to express, it's essential to speak up and be heard
