Gravity
Wage War Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Too late to say "I′ve had enough"
It's like every breath could be my last
My demons won't stay in the past
All alone
On my own
Don′t let go just show me that there′s better days ahead
Make me see how I'm only half the person I should be
Pull me close set me free from this gravity
I can′t run forward and keep looking back
Hindsight has left me where I'm at
I tried to run but I couldn′t see
That you were right beside me
All alone
On my own
Pull me close I feel the water reach around my neck
Don't let go just show me that there′s better days ahead
Make me see how I'm only half the person I should be
Pull me close set me free from this gravity
There is a light in the tunnel but it's distant
On my own and I don′t think that I can fix this
Set me free from this gravity
Pull me close I feel the water reach around my neck
Don′t let go just show me that there's better days ahead
Make me see how I′m only half the person I should be
Pull me close set me free from this gravity
Pull me close set me free from this gravity
The lyrics from the song Gravity by Wage War tells the story of someone struggling to face their demons and feeling the weight of the world on their shoulders. They know they're not living up to their full potential and they're afraid they might not ever reach it. The opening lines of "I'm losing hope, I'm out of touch, too late to say 'I've had enough'" portrays a sense of defeatism and resignation. It seems like the person has given up all hope and feels powerless to change their circumstances.
The chorus of this song, however, is a cry for help. The person is looking for someone to pull them close, to show them that there's a better tomorrow, and to set them free from their demons. There's a sense of vulnerability and desperation throughout the song, but in the end, there's also a glimmer of hope. The lyric "there is a light in the tunnel but it's distant" suggests that the person can still see a way out, even if it's far away.
Overall, the song is a plea for help from someone who feels lost in life. It's about the struggle to keep going when all you want to do is give up, and the importance of having someone to lean on during those times.
