Absolution
Finding Redemption in Embrace
Lyrics
The things that I’ve done
The speaker reflects on past actions or experiences.
You wash them from me the harder I run
As the speaker tries to distance themselves, someone helps cleanse them of their past mistakes or guilt.
The less I want to leave
The more the speaker wants to stay, the less they desire to leave.
The stars are all gone
The stars, often symbolic of hope or guidance, are absent or obscured.
They’re hiding from me
The speaker feels isolated as if the universe is hiding from them.
But you follow me down to where I want to be
Despite challenges, someone follows the speaker to a desired destination.
We’re miles away
The speaker and the person are physically distant, metaphorically miles away.
Read my confession in your eyes
The other person's eyes reveal the speaker's confession.
Feels like we’re spilling over moving closer
The emotional connection deepens, and emotions overflow, bringing them closer.
Deep in your arms I’m finding absolution
In the embrace of the other person, the speaker finds absolution or forgiveness.
When you’re falling like rain
Using rain as a metaphor, the speaker describes a feeling of cleansing or renewal.
I’m forgiven again
The speaker experiences forgiveness once more.
Deep in your arms we’ll fight a revolution
Together in the embrace, they are ready to face a significant change or challenge.
‘Cause the moment won’t fade
The impact of the moment is lasting and won't diminish.
When you love me that way
The love received in a specific way has a profound effect on the speaker.
Like a thief in the night
The speaker likens their presence to a stealthy, impactful force.
The light escapes me without you inside
The absence of the other person leaves the speaker in darkness.
I’m fading and suddenly we’re miles away
The speaker feels a sudden distance and fading connection.
Be my possession and my prize
The speaker desires the other person to be a significant part of their life.
Feels like we’re starting over moving closer
Emotions echo a sense of renewal and restarting the connection.
