Back to Life
Synthis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If only you could see
What holds you close to me
Following my heart

Beyond this empty view
Is something waiting for you
Resurrect me now, forever
When I stare into your eyes
Tell me what you believe
Comfort me with your lies
I need you next to me

You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life

Mend my broken ways
With love that lasts for days
Keep me close at heart
(If only)

When I'm feeling lost
I see you in my thoughts
Memories I miss

When I stare into your eyes
Tell me what you believe
Comfort me with your lies
I need you next to me

You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life

Madness in my mind
Of what I've left behind
Wake me from this dream

Even if you're wrong
You'll miss me when I'm gone
Close my eyes again

But I can't breathe anymore
Tell me what I'm fighting for
Help me see the truth before I'm
Blinded again

When I stare into your eyes
Tell me what you believe
Comfort me with your lies
I need you next to me

You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life




You bring me back to life
You bring me back to life

I have fallen utterly in love with this song. Your voice fits the style excellently and the harmonies you have chosen, especially during "tell me what you believe", send shivers down my spine. Not to mention the great rhythm, with sweet syncopation and that driving bass. Really looking forward to your future pieces.
