Bring Me To Life
Via Vallen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life




(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Via Vallen's song Bring me to life are about the struggle to feel alive and find a purpose in life. The lyrics begin with a question, "How can you see into my eyes like open doors?" which suggests that the person singing is feeling vulnerable and exposed. The next line, "Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb" reveals that this person has become emotionally numb and feels like their soul is sleeping somewhere cold. The only hope for this person is someone who can lead them back home.


The chorus repeats the plea to be woken up, saved, and brought back to life. The lines, "Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me," show that the person singing has found something important that they were missing before, and they don't want to lose it. The lyrics express a desire to be made real and to have somebody breathe life into them so that they can feel alive again.


The final verse is a realization that the person has been in the dark for a long time, unaware of what is around them. They express a desire to wake up and see everything, to have a thought and a voice and to come back to life. The song ends with the plea to be brought back to life again.
