Sheikha
Wither Away Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause everything is perfect as could ever be
She's the joy in my heart
Tearing my soul apart
Sculpting me into something new
Something with virtue and gratitude
I'm anxious of what the world may hold
Scared of the things I don't know
How can I protect you from what I can't control?
She's my safety when everything is breaking
The world may destroy me
But she's killing my anxiety
I'm chilled to the bone
For once in my life, I think I've got it right
The letter "A" never meant a thing
Until I heard your name
You are my breath taker
My sanctuary's keeper
My devotion is nothing
But a promise I will give this garden
"Sheikha" is a heartfelt song that explores the theme of love and protection. The singer expresses their deep love and admiration for their partner, who they describe as being the source of joy in their heart. The first two lines of the chorus, "You and I are everything I wanna find / Cause everything is perfect as could ever be" reflect the singer's belief that their relationship is ideal, and that their partner is everything they have ever wanted.
The singer also acknowledges the transformative power of their partner's love, as indicated in the lines "Sculpting me into something new / Something with virtue and gratitude". The influence of their partner's love has helped them to become a better person, marked by qualities such as virtue and gratitude. However, despite the positive effects of their love, the singer expresses their anxiety about the uncertainty and unpredictability of the world. They wonder how they can protect their partner from the unknown, and feel a sense of fear and unease about what the future may hold.
The song's chorus continues with a powerful message of love and protection, as the singer describes their partner as being their safety in times of trouble, and the one who helps them to conquer their fears and anxieties. The closing lines, "My devotion is nothing / But a promise I will give this garden" suggest the depth of the singer's commitment to their partner, and the desire to maintain and nurture the love that they share.
