Rescue Me
Rescue Me: A Plea for Guidance and Comfort in Stormy Seas
Lyrics
We watch the colours fade away
We observe the fading of colors.
At night, they never seem to stay
During the night, colors do not persist.
Waiting on the morning sun, how I pray
Anticipating the morning sun, expressing a desire through prayer.
I hope I see you again one day
Expressing hope for a future reunion.
The tide keeps pulling me
A metaphorical reference to the persistent influence of an unseen force.
It pulls me under till I can't breathe
Being overwhelmed by this force, reaching a breathless state.
I can't swim these stormy seas
Unable to navigate through challenging circumstances, particularly emotional storms.
So take my hand
Inviting someone to hold their hand.
And rescue me
Pleading for rescue.
Won't you be the lighthouse
Requesting to be a guiding presence like a lighthouse.
The comfort that I need
Seeking comfort and support.
I need to believe
Expressing the need for belief.
Believe it's true
Emphasizing the desire for the belief to be true.
Show me the way now
Asking to be shown the way forward.
And I will follow you
Committing to follow if guidance is provided.
We sit in empty space
Describing a sense of emptiness or void.
Losing our warm embrace
Experiencing the loss of a warm, comforting embrace.
You said I could be someone some day
Recalling a statement about the potential for personal growth.
If only I would change my ways
Regretting a lack of change in behavior preventing the realization of potential.
Lost in the words you say
Feeling adrift in the words spoken.
Wishing for brighter days
Expressing a wish for better days.
The memories are never going away
Memories persisting and influencing the present.
You make all the blue sky's grey
Attributing the power to alter the sky to someone else.
The tide keeps pulling on me
Reiteration of the force pulling the individual.
It pulls me under till I can't breathe
Repeating the sensation of being overwhelmed by the force.
I cant swim these stormy seas
Recurrence of the inability to navigate stormy emotional seas.
So take my hand
Repeating the plea for someone to take their hand and rescue them.
And rescue me
Restating the request for rescue.
Won't you be the lighthouse
Reiteration of the desire for someone to be a guiding presence.
The comfort that I need
Restating the need for comfort and support.
I need to believe
Repeating the expression of the need to believe.
Believe it's true
Reiterating the emphasis on wanting the belief to be true.
Show me the way now
Repetition of the request to be shown the way.
And I will follow you
Reaffirmation of the commitment to follow if guided.
So take my hand
Repeating the plea for someone to take their hand and rescue them.
And rescue me
Restating the request for rescue.
Won't you be the lighthouse
Reiteration of the desire for someone to be a guiding presence.
The comfort that I need
Restating the need for comfort and support.
I need to believe
Repeating the expression of the need to believe.
Believe it's true
Reiterating the emphasis on wanting the belief to be true.
Show me the way now
Repetition of the request to be shown the way.
And I will follow you
Reaffirmation of the commitment to follow if guided.
