Lyrics of “Baptism” by Lovejoy

[Verse 1]
It was a cold calling, we had a veer
Just the worst time of the year
And now the sod did one together
They don’t know the ship is sinking

[Bridge (William, Joseph)]
If you play the saviour
Will you make me holy?
If you play the savior
Will you make me huh?!
If you play the saviour

Will you make me holy?
If you play the saviour
Will I ever be

[Chorus]
There’s blood in the water
You always baptise a little too early
You say that I’ve eaten
The due lies yet to disagree
There’s blood in the water
You always baptise a little too early
You say that I’ve eaten
But do I have to disagree?

[Verse 2]
And I think at some point I wanted to do something
Remember at one point I wanted to make a new world
But it’s getting to late and the old world has changed, getting out of the hospital, staying insane
When I see my reflection I don’t see myself, when I see my reflection I see someone else in my house

In my house
In my house

[Bridge (Joseph, William)]
Blood under the water, there’s blood on my shirt (Save me)

When I see my reflection I see someone else, oh
Purify, cut it open, know it won’t work
When I see my reflection it’s somebody else, oh
Two archings bloodied while something much worse (Save me)
I don’t know if I wanted to be somebody else
I’m gonna be sick
The baptism’s over again

[Outro (William and Joseph, William)]
When he walks, his house will stay by his side
When he talks, his eyes never leave mine
How do I trust him?

Meaning of ‘Baptism’ Lyrics Explained

Verse 1 Meaning:
The singer talks about a cold, awkward situation and a time that feels really bad. Things were supposed to go one way, but they didn’t, and now people around him don’t realize how badly things are falling apart. It’s like everyone is ignoring the obvious problems.

Bridge (William, Joseph) Meaning:
The singer is asking if someone who claims to be a savior or guide can actually fix him or make him better. He’s unsure if anyone can truly make him feel pure, holy, or whole, and he’s frustrated, questioning whether change or salvation is even possible for him.

Chorus Meaning:
Here, the singer describes danger and guilt that feels everywhere, like blood in the water. People try to judge him or “save” him too soon, before he’s ready. He feels accused of things he hasn’t done and wonders if he even needs to argue against what others think of him.

Verse 2 Meaning:
The singer remembers a time when he wanted to do something meaningful or create a better life, but now it feels too late. Life has changed, and he’s struggling with mental and emotional challenges. Looking at himself, he doesn’t recognize who he is anymore—he feels like a stranger in his own home and life, disconnected from the person he once hoped to be.

Bridge (Joseph, William) Meaning:
The singer is overwhelmed by guilt, violence, and inner conflict. He sees a version of himself he doesn’t like and tries to cleanse or fix it, but it doesn’t work. The struggle repeats, making him feel sick and unsure if he even wanted to become someone else. It’s a cycle of self-doubt and failed attempts to feel better.

Outro (William and Joseph, William) Meaning:
He feels cautious and unsure about trusting someone close. Even when the person is near or speaking to him, he’s uncertain if he can believe in them, showing lingering doubt and fear of being let down.
