pay for me
Sons of Morpheus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've got no job
Cause the road is what i am
Oh i need you
To feed me through
What you got for is all i have
What i can do is to show you the stars
Tellin' the milky way down to earth
I play for you
Cause i want it too
Show me what you got
All i have is a true soul, i want to move on
What i can do is to show you the stars
What is a true value for you, what is real love
Can you be that free
To turn your'e whole world upside down
All i have is a true soul, i want to move on
What i can do is to show you the stars
What is a true value for you, show me real love
I'll be your slave
I'll be your dog
Play a true lover for you
The lyrics of Sons of Morpheus's song Pay for Me reflect the struggles of a man who is unemployed and has nothing to offer except his own soul. He is asking for someone to take care of him and provide for him, because he has no job and no money. His true passion is music, and he hopes to use it to show the beauty and wonder of the world to others.
He expresses his desire to move on, to spread his wings and show the world what he's made of. He offers to play for the listener, to show them what he's got and what he can do. He believes that he has a true soul, and he wants to share it with the world.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that all he has is a true soul, and he wants to move on and show the stars to the listener. He wonders what true value and real love mean to the listener, and whether they can be free enough to turn their world upside down. Finally, he offers to be a lover, a slave, and a dog for the listener, in exchange for the chance to show them the beauty of the world through his music.
