Softspoken Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Directionall over again, watch me fall.
Blanket my sight maybe trust my
Heart this time I'm over this, over this
Selfishly, I may need another pick me up to lift this up.
Oh genuinely,
I have plans to give this all right back Then there's my heart attack
Tremble, falter, breakthe clouds which cover me and spit on apathy
One more step into the wrong directionall over again, watch me fall.
Blanket my sight maybe trust my
Heart this time I'm over this, over this
Truth be told, I fell further than you can tell.
These are distractions planted here so I can see your reactions
This is gonna be a curing remedy,
A distant memory of who I used to be Lose my mind; find my soul.
Captured eyes, ignite a light, be that light,
Find mysoul captured eyes,
Ignite a light
One more step into
The wrong directionall over again, watch me fall.
Blanket my sight maybe trust my
Heart this time I'm over this, over this
One more step into the wrong direction, watch me fall.
Blanket my sight maybe trust my
Heart this time I'm over this, over this
The lyrics to Softspoken's "Begin Again" speaks to a feeling many people may have experienced in their lives. It's about feeling lost and trapped in a cycle of bad decision making where you keep taking one step after another in the wrong direction. The opening lines, "One more step into the wrong direction all over again, watch me fall" sets the tone for the rest of the song where the singer is struggling to break free from the cycle of making bad choices.
The line "Blanket my sight maybe trust my heart this time I'm over this, over this" suggests that the singer is trying to change their perspectives and rely on their intuition (heart) to make better decisions. They feel disconnected from their true selves and may be seeking external sources of happiness (pick me up) to fill that void. The line "Tremble, falter, break the clouds which cover me and spit on apathy" speaks of fighting the negativity and the overwhelming feeling of being stuck. The singer wants to break free and ignite a light that will help them steer in the right direction.
The song radiates hope, and the chorus is a reminder to the singer to keep moving forward, one step at a time, in the right direction. "One more step into the wrong direction, watch me fall. Blanket my sight, maybe trust my heart this time I'm over this, over this". It's a reminder to keep persevering even with the distractions (these are distractions planted here so I can see your reactions) and to lose your mind but find your soul.
