The Soul Of My Soul Lyrics – Lelek

The Soul Of My Soul Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The first verse paints a surreal picture where the singer feels caught in a dreamlike state, yet fully aware of their pain. There’s a sense of disconnect from the world around them, where voices are loud but hollow, and the imagery of sails in the dark suggests a journey ahead. The anchor symbolizes how betrayal keeps them grounded in despair. The line about rain without clouds conveys how something heavy and painful can exist without an obvious cause, and despite the silence of the world, their inner turmoil is deafening.

[Pre-Chorus]
In the pre-chorus, the singer expresses deep emotional scars, feeling like they’re in a game where they’ve lost everything. The phrase “You take it all” refers to how someone has taken away their soul, leaving them hollow and emotionally drained.

[Chorus]
The chorus conveys the feeling of being sold out or betrayed. “Sold me to heaven” suggests that the person has handed them over to something or someone that promises peace but only brings pain. The broken wings symbolize the loss of freedom or the inability to heal. Despite their suffering, there’s still a flicker of hope that things could change, though they’re drowning in their pain. “Let me go” speaks to their desire for release from this emotional prison, while the soul being taken away represents a sense of being drained of their very essence.

[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the singer reflects on the futility of their struggles. Every spark of hope turns cold, and they are surrounded by people who can see their pain but can’t truly understand or help. The walls around them symbolize isolation, and though time moves on, they’re left alone to face it, with no one to lean on.

[Pre-Chorus]
This pre-chorus repeats the earlier themes of deep emotional wounds and the feeling of being trapped in a game where they have lost everything. The “soul of my soul” phrase emphasizes how deeply they’ve been affected by the betrayal.

[Chorus]
In this chorus, the repeated feelings of being sold out and losing one’s soul intensify. The singer’s pain is described as suffocating, like drowning in a river of blood. There’s a sense of isolation, but despite everything, the faint hope of change or release still lingers. The echo of broken wings implies that their past struggles continue to haunt them, and they feel abandoned, crying out for freedom.

[Bridge]
The bridge echoes the core sentiment of the pre-chorus: emotional scars, feeling like they’ve lost everything, and having their soul taken away. It’s a brief, powerful reminder of the devastation they feel.

[Chorus]
The chorus here is a repetition that emphasizes the emotional weight the singer is carrying. Being “sold to heaven” reinforces the idea of being handed over to something that promises peace but only brings suffering. The broken wings, echoing pain, and feelings of drowning show how trapped they feel, and the repeated plea of “let me go” reveals a desperate desire for release. Despite all the pain, the singer holds onto a faint hope, still yearning for change even in their deepest moments of despair.

[Outro]
The outro is a final, haunting reiteration of the feeling of being sold out. The phrase “Everybody knows, let them know” suggests a sense of helplessness, as if the world sees their suffering but remains indifferent, adding to the feeling of isolation and betrayal.
