Tell Me Now
The Rescue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we pack it all away
These days of judgement
They seem like they'll never go away
Telling that story
With some wisdom I guess
I'm running on empty but
I could have less
When your not around and I can't see
Tell me a story
Well what is time worth
You never get it back
It drifts like a melody
Just a few words that last
Tell me a story
Something from the past
I will drink, drink, drink to your Melody
Alone in a room just for me
Tell me a story
Tell me something that you never ever told anyone before
Tell me a story
Something from the past
Well some things you remember
For the rest of your life
You never forget
No you never forget… My friend
The summer has ended
The days are getting short
The skies have never been more beautiful
My Friend
I'm Looking around
Birds fly through the air
Winter is upon us
Take shelter my dear
I saw you smiling at the kitchen sink
You survived you're still alive
I saw you thinking about the future
You survived you're still alive
Tell me a story
Tell me something that you never ever told anyone before
Tell me a story
Something from the past
Tell me a story
The lyrics of The Rescue's song Tell Me Now are about the passage of time and the importance of storytelling. The singer reflects on the fleeting nature of time, the impermanence of life, and the value of memories. The song begins by describing the human tendency to hide away our "goodness" and the feelings and experiences that make us who we are. The days of judgment referred to in the lyrics may represent moments of reckoning or self-reflection, when we are forced to confront the reality of our lives and the choices we have made.
The singer then asks for stories, for tales of the past that offer a glimpse into the richness and complexity of life. The lyrics suggest that time is a precious resource that can never be regained once it has passed, and that memories and stories are a way of holding onto the moments that make life worth living. The singer asks for something that has never been told before, a reminder that every person has a unique story to tell, and that these stories are what connect us to one another.
Ultimately, the song is about the search for meaning and connection in a world that can be chaotic and unpredictable. The singer acknowledges the passing of the seasons, the beauty of the natural world, and the resilience of the human spirit. In the end, it is the stories that we tell that keep us alive, that remind us of the joys and sorrows of the human experience, and that connect us to one another across time and space.

We take all of our goodness
We gather up all the good things we have
And we pack it all away
And keep it stored inside, hidden from the world
These days of judgement
The times of reckoning
They seem like they'll never go away
Appear to be endless and unrelenting
Telling that story
Narrating a tale
With some wisdom I guess
With certain knowledge, I suppose
I'm running on empty but
Although I am depleted
I could have less
I could be worse off
I will drink, drink, drink to your Melody
I will consume a lot in honor of your song
When your not around and I can't see
When you are far away and invisible
Tell me a story
Describe a tale
Well what is time worth
What is the value of time
You never get it back
You can never reclaim it
It drifts like a melody
It fades away like a tune
Just a few words that last
Only a handful of words that are permanent
Tell me a story
Share a narrative
Something from the past
Something from an earlier time
Alone in a room just for me
By myself in a room specially reserved for me
Tell me something that you never ever told anyone before
Narrate something that you have always kept secret
Well some things you remember
Some recollections you retain
For the rest of your life
Throughout your life
You never forget
You never lose memory of them
No you never forget… My friend
No, you will never forget...my companion
The summer has ended
The summertime is over
The days are getting short
The days are becoming shorter
The skies have never been more beautiful
The heavens have never been more stunning
My Friend
My chum
I'm Looking around
I'm glancing around
Birds fly through the air
Birds soar through the atmosphere
Winter is upon us
The winter season is here
Take shelter my dear
Seek refuge, my love
I saw you smiling at the kitchen sink
I spotted you grinning at the kitchen basin
You survived you're still alive
You made it through, you are still breathing
I saw you thinking about the future
I witnessed you pondering about the days to come
Tell me a story
Tell me a tale
Something from the past
Something from yesteryear
