Lost Souls
Trapped in Static Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where you feel safe,
I wanna hide in there, take a ride with you,
Where I can be yours forever.
In a world for you and me with no one else around
When you felt down,

I always held you up, not just a face in the crowd
I thought I ‘d always stick around
But you, again you let me down,
Tonight I am on fire, here my voice I am alive,
We are stronger together, we can survive

I am not going down, I am on fire tonight
I will stick around, be the light in your night
This world cuts like a knife,
But it hurts more inside
When thinking about you, living without you
Wish I could change your mind,
Two lost souls in the night

Where will we go,
Do you think we can find the strength?
People like you, don’t know what they need,
Having everything your way
You say we can be free, but how can that be
With no one to share, no one that cares,




And no feelings nothing to fill this empty air
And we are empty as air

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Trapped in Static's song Lost Souls depict a sense of longing and desire for safety and connection. The first few lines convey the singer's desire to find a safe haven in the company of the person they are addressing. They want to "take a ride" with them and be theirs "forever". The next line talks about a world just for them, with no one else around. It seems the singer wants to escape from the complexities and complications of the world and just be with the person they care about.


The singer then talks about how they have always been there for this person when they were feeling down. They have been their support and have always held them up. However, it seems that this person has let the singer down in some way, as the singer laments that they thought they would always stick around, but this person has disappointed them. Despite this, the singer doesn't give up and declares that they are on fire tonight and will stick around to be the light in this person's life. The lyrics convey a sense of hopefulness and determination in the midst of disappointment and hurt.


The last verse of the song talks about the difficulty of finding true freedom and fulfillment. The singer believes that people, like the person they are addressing, don't know what they really need. Having everything your way doesn't necessarily lead to freedom or happiness. The singer seems to be searching for something more meaningful and deeper than just material pleasures. The song ends with the line "we are empty as air", perhaps emphasizing the futility of earthly pleasures and the desire for something more substantive and fulfilling.


Line by Line Meaning

Where you feel safe,
I want to find comfort and safety with you.


I wanna hide in there, take a ride with you,
I want to be with you and go on a journey to explore the unknown.


Where I can be yours forever.
I want to have a place where I belong, with you.


In a world for you and me with no one else around
I long for a world where it's just us, and nobody else.


When you felt down,
During times when you were feeling low,


I always held you up, not just a face in the crowd
I was there to support you and not just blend in with others.


I thought I ‘d always stick around
I believed I would remain with you forever.


But you, again you let me down,
However, you disappointed me once more.


Tonight I am on fire, here my voice I am alive,
I feel alive and passionate as I express myself through music tonight.


We are stronger together, we can survive
Our unity makes us capable of overcoming any obstacle.


I am not going down, I am on fire tonight
I refuse to give up and am filled with determination.


I will stick around, be the light in your night
I will remain by your side and provide guidance in the darkness.


This world cuts like a knife,
This world is harsh and painful,


But it hurts more inside
But the internal pain is even greater.


When thinking about you, living without you
The idea of being without you is unbearable.


Wish I could change your mind,
I desire the ability to alter your thoughts.


Two lost souls in the night
We are both lost in our own ways and struggling to find our way.


Where will we go,
What direction should we take?


Do you think we can find the strength?
Do you think we have the power to persevere?


People like you, don’t know what they need,
You, and people like you, are unaware of what you truly require.


Having everything your way
Always getting what you want


You say we can be free, but how can that be
You claim we can be free, but I doubt it.


With no one to share, no one that cares,
Without anyone to confide in and care about us,


And no feelings nothing to fill this empty air
And no emotions to occupy this empty atmosphere.


And we are empty as air
We are hollow and lacking substance.
