Embrace
Wolverine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You changed all that I am
Once you opened your eyes
Right there I turned off the world
And then there were you and I

Whole again, you have defined who I am
Innocence helps me retain what I am
One breath was all they required
To deprive us all of our bliss
Right there I saw you were lost
And there wouldn't be another "us"

I fell and I fell, into a dark and bottomless pit
Darkness embraced my whole world

I'll trade you my life, spare you my heart
Without you I still would be lost, I'd drown in an ocean
I am you, you are me, we cannot part
A future's embrace clad with hope is ours…

Slowly dark clouds dispersed
Offered a passage of life
And they gave us a reason to carry on
What we believed wouldn't be suddenly was

I'll trade you my life, spare you my heart
Without you I still would be lost, I'd drown in an ocean
I am you, you are me, we cannot part
A future's embrace clad with hope is ours…

Dark clouds will shadow the roads we'll be walking
And questions will challenge our minds and our hopes




But I'm sure that devotion and faith will make darkness subside
For the power of love is embodied and born in our strong embrace…

Line by Line Meaning

You changed all that I am
Your influence has transformed my entire being


Once you opened your eyes
At the moment of your birth, everything changed for me


Right there I turned off the world
Everything else became irrelevant when I met you


And then there were you and I
As a result of your existence, we have been brought together


Whole again, you have defined who I am
You have completed me and given me a sense of identity


Innocence helps me retain what I am
Your purity has helped me hold onto my own values


One breath was all they required
A single event caused us to lose our happiness


To deprive us all of our bliss
We were robbed of our joy and satisfaction


Right there I saw you were lost
I realized you were struggling and needed my help


And there wouldn't be another "us"
If we don't help each other, we will lose what we have between us


I fell and I fell, into a dark and bottomless pit
I felt like I was sinking into an endless void of despair


Darkness embraced my whole world
I was overwhelmed by feelings of hopelessness and loneliness


I'll trade you my life, spare you my heart
I would give up everything for you, just to keep you safe


Without you I still would be lost, I'd drown in an ocean
You are my anchor and without you, I would be adrift


I am you, you are me, we cannot part
We are intertwined and can't be separated


A future's embrace clad with hope is ours…
We can face the future with optimism and love


Slowly dark clouds dispersed
Gradually, the negativity began to fade away


Offered a passage of life
We were given a chance to start anew


And they gave us a reason to carry on
We found hope and motivation to keep going


What we believed wouldn't be suddenly was
We were proven wrong when fortune finally smiled upon us


Dark clouds will shadow the roads we'll be walking
There will be challenges and obstacles ahead


And questions will challenge our minds and our hopes
We will face uncertainty and doubt


But I'm sure that devotion and faith will make darkness subside
I believe that our commitment and belief will overcome any difficulty


For the power of love is embodied and born in our strong embrace…
Our love for each other is what gives us strength and purpose

I do not have words to express how brilliant and touching this is. The chord progressions are just incredibly well done. Everything fits together in an amazing growing melancholic atmosphere. Clap clap clap.
