Lyrics
Hide yourself from him
Advises to protect oneself from someone
He lurks in the dark while you're fast asleep
Describes someone lurking in darkness while the listener is asleep
Pray he'll keep you safe from monsters that occupy the thoughts by your grave
Hopes for safety from inner fears or threats
Hope the day will come when you're okay to have a heart of love again
Longing for the day when the listener can love again
Hold her, lead her
Encouragement to support and guide a female figure
Tell her that you'll need her
Expresses dependency and need for the female figure
All in dreams of happy ever after
Dreams of an idealistic, happy future
Play the fool, her trust of an imposter
Suggests betrayal or deception in the pursuit of trust
Fire burning still
Implies unresolved or ongoing turmoil/emotions
Ooh
Exclamation expressing emotion
Ahh
Expression of emotion
Ahh
-Find yourself again,
Encouragement to rediscover oneself
Until he walks in and tries to lock your hands to the door
Describes an attempt to confine or restrict
Frozen in your place,
Feeling immobilized or helpless in a situation
You know you can't do anything about him anymore
Recognition of powerlessness against the person mentioned earlier
Trace your footprints back to better days, better times, better love, better run away
Nostalgia for a better past, love, or escape from the present
Ooh
Exclamation expressing emotion
Hold her, lead her
Encouragement to guide and protect the female figure
Promised that you'd keep her
Promised protection for the female figure
Struck the gold in her happy ever after
Describes finding happiness in an idealistic future
Praise her, save her life for your own pleasure
Criticizes manipulation or exploitation for selfish gain
Fire burning out
Suggests the fading or extinguishing of turmoil/emotions
Ooh
Exclamation expressing emotion
Ooh
-Ooh
