Set Me Free
Soulmate Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
the way u want me
looks there was nothin
nothin maybe i can look
i m under ur spell
i just got afraid of myself
nobody could help me
u canT take my mind
u cant take my soul
u cant change my soul
The lyrics of Soulmate's song "Set Me Free" seem to delve into the intricate emotions and thoughts that come with the dynamics of a relationship. The singer sets the tone by stating that the other person has complete control over them, and that they have willingly surrendered to their power. They acknowledge that perhaps there wasn't anything to begin with, but now it seems like they might have something to hold on to. The singer is under a spell-like effect by the other person, and they're fearful of themselves, which suggests that they feel vulnerable and weakened by the situation. The song appears to be highlighting the idea that relationships demand us to become our best and worst versions.
The singer also implies that even though they are entirely entranced by the other person, they reject the idea that the other person can fully take over their mind or soul. It appears that the singer has recognized their worth and known that they are more than their relationship's sum. Perhaps, the track's overarching theme is about striking a balance between surrendering yourself emotionally in a relationship while still holding onto your individuality.

omg I am 24 and typical metalhead, but I just opened blues as a genre (in my country blues is one of the most unpopular genre) and this band sent my soul to heaven from 1st song.
