Hold Me
Unveiling Emotional Turmoil: "Hold Me" by Duran Duran
Lyrics
Yeah, this time
Expressing agreement or affirmation to a proposed action or idea.
Shall we walk?
Suggesting a joint activity, possibly a metaphorical journey or exploration.
Shall we run through my head, you understand?
Asking if the thoughts or ideas are being shared, seeking understanding.
Does the body you conceal
Raising a question about hidden emotions or aspects of oneself.
Need the touch of someone's hand?
Questioning the need for emotional connection and physical touch.
Ashes; violations
Mentioning remnants and transgressions, possibly alluding to past mistakes.
Who would they burn for?
Pondering the consequences of actions and who bears the responsibility.
In your isolation what can't you see?
Addressing someone in isolation, questioning their perspective.
I wonder if the light's down
Wondering about the state of illumination, metaphorically questioning awareness.
I wonder if they're listening
Questioning if someone is paying attention or understanding.
Hold me lay your shame away
Encouraging intimacy and sharing vulnerabilities.
Show me where your lovers stay
Asking to reveal the locations of emotional connections or affairs.
Hold me lay your ghost away
Seeking solace and understanding from past regrets or mistakes.
Show me for yourself
Encouraging self-discovery and personal revelation.
You are lost and alone
Highlighting a sense of being lost and in solitude.
But a prisoner of your pride
Acknowledging the internal conflict of pride leading to isolation.
When the passions you ignore
Stating that neglected passions can never be completely concealed.
You can never hide
Emphasizing that certain feelings or truths cannot be hidden.
One of these days you're gonna find out
Suggesting a future realization or self-discovery.
Cause one of these days you're gonna try
Anticipating a moment of trying or testing oneself.
And what did I say
Possibly referring to a previous conversation or statement.
To make you wind up
Questioning the cause of internal guilt or emotional burden.
With this spear of guilt inside
Describing the emotional weight resulting from a particular statement.
I wonder if the light's down
Repeating the earlier contemplation about awareness and reception.
I wonder if they're listening
Reiterating the question of whether someone is attentive.
Hold me lay your shame away
Echoing the call for emotional support and understanding.
Show me where your lovers stay
Asking for disclosure of emotional connections and relationships.
Hold me lay your ghost away
Seeking relief from haunting memories or regrets.
Show me for yourself
Encouraging self-revelation and personal understanding.
Na na na na na na na hold me
Repetition of the plea to be held and supported.
Na na na na na na show me
Repetition of the request to be shown emotional connections.
No na na na na na na na na na
Repetition with a variation, possibly emphasizing the plea.
Hold me lay your shame away
Reiterating the call for support and laying aside shame.
Show me where your lovers stay
Repeating the request to reveal the locations of emotional connections.
Hold me lay your ghost away
Reiterating the desire to be relieved of haunting memories.
Show me for yourself
Stressing the importance of self-discovery and understanding.
