The meaning of the lyrics of the song "As I Lay Me Down" by the artist "Wiktoria Johansson"

Contents

In "As I Lay Me Down," Wiktoria Johansson expresses feelings of loneliness, despair, and longing for love. The lyrics portray the speaker as lost and broken ("my soul is shattered," "I've hit rock bottom"), seeking solace only in love.

Addressing God ("Oh God"), she confesses her vulnerability ("so clumsy and careless"), self-doubt ("I start to blame myself"), and crippling fears. She acknowledges her dependence on a person she addresses as "darling" ("I need you / More than I should"), praying for their presence and help.

The recurring line "I know I shouldn't think about you, but I do / All the time" emphasizes the speaker's obsession and inability to let go, despite the pain it causes. The song is filled with desperation and pleas for salvation directed both at God and the object of her affection.

Oh man I'm a loner, a night time roamer

Emptiness haunts me and that's how I know

I am a broken hearted soul

And I've hit rock bottom so where do I go?

All I need, is for your love to save me

Begging please, I think I'm going crazy

All I know, is that I'm losing my grip

As I lay me down to sleep

I wish that you were here with me

Cause I need some help

To save me from myself

And I know I shouldn't think about you but I do

All the time

My oh my (hey)

My oh my (Hey)

Oh man I'm a stumbler, a straight-A rumbler

Looking for trouble wherever I go (hey)

And night time is calling, my judgement is falling

And I won't give up til the sun comes up

All I know, is that I'm losing my grip

As I lay me down to sleep

I wish that you were here with me

Cause I need some help

To save me from myself

And I know I shouldn't think about you but I do

All the time

As I wake up in despair,

You know I say a little prayer

Cause I need some help

To save me from myself

And I know I shouldn't think about you but I do

All the time

My oh my (Hey)

My oh my (Hey)

My oh my

Darling I need you

More than I want to

So as I lay me down

Won't you save me

As I lay me down to sleep

I wish that you were here with me

Cause I need some help

To save me from myself

And I know I shouldn't think about you but I do

All the time

As I wake up in despair,

You know I say a little prayer

Cause I need some help

To save me from myself

And I know I shouldn't think about you but I do

All the time

My oh my (Hey)

My oh my (Hey)

My oh my (Hey)

My oh my (Hey)
