Trust
Wolverine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"How I've longed for this... for my loneliness to die
There's no need to be afraid the enemy has been slain today"

"All this trust I found keeps me hanging on to life
There's a place I never saw hidden deep inside myself"

There's so much more to this than what she knows
She fails to see the truth though served
The blind led by a blind into despair
Despair dressed in a vow of joy





"Free at last, I've found some of my own kind
Together we will fly away, here comes that rush again"

Overall Meaning

The Wolverine's song Trust is a deep and powerful exploration of loneliness, trust, and self-discovery. It starts out with the singer expressing their desire to be free from the burden of loneliness, to have it finally die. They reassure themselves that there's nothing to be afraid of because their enemy has been slain. It is unclear what enemy they are referring to, but it seems to be something internal that held them back and caused their loneliness.


The singer then talks about the trust that they have found, and how it keeps them hanging on to life. This trust they speak of is the kind of trust one has in themselves, their abilities, and their inner strength. They have discovered a part of themselves that was hidden deep within, a place they never saw before.


The song then takes a darker turn as the singer talks about someone who fails to see the truth, despite it being served to them. They are being led blindly into despair, while thinking they are joyful. This is a warning to not blindly trust others, and to seek the truth for oneself.


The song ends on a hopeful note, as the singer declares themselves free at last and discovering their own kind. They are no longer alone and can fly away with others like themselves. The rush of excitement and joy that comes with this realization is palpable.


Overall, Trust is a beautifully written song about the power of trust, both in oneself and in others, and the importance of seeking the truth.
