Take Me Back
Sonic Dream Collective Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All alone
I watch the sun set in the horizon
The sky turns blue
God knows that I am too
And as I'm sitting here
The wind blows memories to my mind
So I close my eyes and try
To say a silent prayer

[chorus]
So won't you take me back
Cause I'm falling down
Oh help me find my way
Into safer ground
Oh won't you take me back
Cause I just can't seem to find the way

I've lost my grip of time
So many choices so many options
And as I my mind was so confused
I think I lost myself
And like I used to say
I know what I want and I'm gonna get it
But that was long ago
I'm just a shadow of myself

[chorus]

So here I am
And I'm still sitting here all alone
But though my mind was so confused
I think I found myself





[chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sonic Dream Collective's song "Take Me Back" paint a vivid picture of someone who is feeling lost and alone in their current circumstances. The song opens with the singer sitting alone, watching as the sun sets on the horizon. As the sky turns blue, the singer feels the weight of their own sorrows, wondering how they ended up in this lonely place. Memories blow through their mind like the wind, making it difficult to find peace. The singer tries to say a silent prayer, a plea for help to find their way out of this darkness and into safer ground.


The first verse closes with a powerful chorus where the singer asks someone to take them back because they are falling down and can't seem to find the way. It's a plea for help, a desire to find a way forward in life. The second verse details the singer's struggle with time passing by and the endless options and choices that it brings. They express feeling lost and confused, a shadow of their former self. This contrast creates tension in the song, as the upbeat tempo belies the desperation of the lyrics.


In the final chorus, the singer acknowledges that they have found themselves to some extent. Although they are still sitting alone, they no longer feel as confused as they once did, and they express an understanding that finding oneself is a journey. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the singer's desire for someone to help them find a way through their struggles, even if they have found a glimmer of clarity.
