Slide
Navigating Shadows: Unraveling the Meaning Behind Tyler Hilton's 'Slide'
Lyrics
You said I'd slide, into myself
Expressing an assurance or promise that the speaker will retreat or withdraw into their own thoughts or emotions.
You said I'd slide, destroy myself
Implies a belief or statement made by someone else that the speaker would self-destruct or harm themselves.
Cause when I wake, inside myself
Upon waking up, finding introspection and reflection within oneself.
I knew I'd take, away from you
Anticipating a detachment or separation from the person addressed.
So see if I could find my life
Searching for personal identity and purpose, possibly in hidden or obscured aspects.
In the shadows that you hide
Exploring the concealed aspects of the addressee's life.
Find our lives
Discovering shared existence or experiences.
In the wires that decide
Referencing the controlling or determining factors influencing life.
Beside I'd say I slide
Asserting a continual state of sliding or retreating.
Into dream, my mistake
Entering a state of imagination or subconsciousness, acknowledging an error or misstep.
In what's real
Contrasting between the imagined and the actual, the tangible.
In what I take
Receiving or acquiring elements from reality.
With the words, that made me stay
Highlighting the impact of persuasive or influential words that kept the speaker engaged or in place.
I knew they'd take, away from you
Understanding the eventual detachment from the addressed person due to these impactful words.
So see if I could find my life
Continuing the quest for self-discovery in hidden aspects.
In the shadows that you hide
Examining the concealed aspects of shared lives.
Find our lives
Discovering common existence or experiences.
In the wires that decide
Emphasizing external forces or circumstances dictating existence.
Beside I'd say I slide
Reiterating the ongoing state of sliding or withdrawing.
Into you, into sleep
Immersing into the addressee or a state of slumber, acknowledging possession of elements from reality.
In what's real, in what I'll keep
Acknowledging possession of tangible elements acquired from reality.
Close your eyes and let me see
Requesting the addressee to close their eyes, inviting them to reveal what they'll take away from the speaker.
What you'll take away from me
Awareness of potential detachment or loss from the addressee.
So see if I could find my life
Continuation of seeking personal identity in concealed aspects.
In the shadows that you hide
Exploration of the hidden aspects of shared lives.
Find our lives
Discovering common existence or experiences in hidden facets.
In the wires that we hide
Emphasizing the hidden nature of forces or circumstances dictating existence.
Inside I'd say I slide
Continued introspection or withdrawal into oneself.
