The Blaze Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Open me
It all seems so fine, and on the way
See pictures in my brain
I'm looking at you
I smile and you smile
Did you forget us dancing just the other day?
Yeah
It's better if you weren't welcome
Get out of my dream
I'm not the only one
Falling when you seem so alive
I feel so blind
When I rise and rise
'Cause I feel so high and I need your love

But you let me down
Don't you let me down today
I need your love
But you let me down
Don't you let me down today

Alright alright alright
Please
Your smiling clever face
Might dissolve into the dark
Run the other way
I said stay we're singing old rhymes
Like old souls in a new time
I let you down on raven wings
To the other side where sirens sing
What about me?
I want you close to me
The sun is turning away and is burning out to sea
What the fuck do you wanna know?
This heart and soul is open to you now

So alive
I feel so blind
When I rise and rise
'Cause I feel so high and I need your love

But you let me down
Don't you let me down today
I need your love
But you let me down




Don't you let me down today
I need your love

Overall Meaning

The Blaze's song "Opening" is a reflection on love, disappointment, and the power it holds over us. The opening lines "Open me, it all seems so fine, and on the way," suggest a sense of vulnerability and the willingness to let someone in. The images in the singer's mind depict happy moments shared with the other person, but the smiles fade as the person realizes that they have been let down. The song captures the pain of feeling lonely and isolated in the aftermath of a relationship.


The chorus, "I need your love, but you let me down, don't you let me down today," expresses the conflict between the desire for love and the disappointment of betrayal. It's a plea for the other person to not disappoint them again. The line "your smiling clever face might dissolve into the dark, run the other way" suggests the singer's desire to escape the situation and prevent further pain.


However, the song also contains moments of hope, such as the line "old souls in a new time." The singer recognizes that despite the pain and disappointment, there is still a chance for new beginnings, growth, and renewal. The song's title, "Opening," could potentially signify a willingness to open oneself up to new experiences and possibilities despite the past's hurt.


Overall, The Blaze's "Opening" is a compelling exploration of love, disappointment, and the human condition.
