Take My Arms
Embrace the Journey: Discovering Self in 'Take My Arms' by Son of Stone
Lyrics
I always lived a life that
I have consistently led a life that
I was supposed to live
was expected of me
But always felt that I was left behind
Yet, I always sensed that I was left behind
Left behind, left behind
Repeated emphasis on feeling abandoned
Always searching
Continuously searching
But I didn't know what I should find
Unsure of what I should discover
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Request to take control and guide to the right path
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Asking for support to attain authenticity
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Reiteration of the desire for guidance
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Repetition of the plea for assistance
I just want to be me
Expressing a simple wish to be oneself
I mostly walked the path that others had walked before
Choosing a familiar path trodden by others
But always felt lost and left behind
Despite that, feeling adrift and forsaken
Left behind, left behind
Reiteration of the sense of abandonment
Always searching
Continued search for purpose or identity
But I didn't know what I should find
Still unsure of what is sought
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Call for assistance and guidance
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Seeking support to discover one's true self
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Reiteration of the plea for direction
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Continued request for the means to be authentic
I hope my second time around
Hoping for a more peaceful experience in the second attempt
I get a peace of mind
Yearning for tranquility of the mind
So I don't have to feel
Expression of the desire to avoid feeling abandoned
Left behind
Reiteration of the fear of being left behind
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Request for guidance and direction
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Seeking support for self-discovery
I hope my second time around
Repetition of the hope for a more serene experience
I get a peace of mind
Continued yearning for peace of mind
So I don't have to feel
Reiteration of the desire to avoid feeling abandoned
Left behind
Further emphasis on the fear of being left behind
Take my arms and bring me where I should be
Repeated plea for guidance and direction
Take my arms and give the things so I can be me
Continued request for support in being true to oneself
So I can be me
Final expression of the desire to be authentic
