In a haunting blend of metaphors and imagery, Spiritbox explores the bitter taste of resentment. The lyrics delve into the struggle of letting go of hate, which is depicted as too "hollow" to hold onto yet too consuming to ignore. The repeated plea to "sew me up" symbolizes a desire for healing and closure, despite being trapped in the shadows of past mistakes or trauma. The song also reflects on the fear of vulnerability in relationships with lines such as "Are you scared to be alone with me?" Overall, it's a beautifully dark exploration of internal conflict, self-reflection, and the human tendency to cling to negativity.
Sew Me Up
Lyrics
You swear I'd shed this shadow
Unravel every tendon
Wrap them around your promise
And bring me to my end
Mistakes, hard to swallow
This hate leaves me hollow because
Two times that I've heard before
"It's a curse if you care enough"
Are you scared to be alone with me?
And the words I speak if I
Hold on to hate, too hollow for anyone
To just remain in shadow
Pulling backwards to sew me up?
Sew me up
Sew me up
Because
Two times that I've heard before
"It's a curse if you care enough"
Are you scared to be alone with me
And the words that I'm dreaming of?
To the house where I could not speak
Shadow blooms and it covers up
Everything that I want and need
Thicker blood, let it turn to rust
Hold on to hate, too hollow for anyone
To just remain in shadow
Pulling backwards to sew me up
And reasons change
Like the spiders in your veins now for anyone
To just remain in shadow
Pulling backwards to sew me up
Sew me up
Two times that I've heard before
"It's a curse if you care enough"
Are you scared to be alone with me
And the words that I'm dreaming of?
Hold on to hate, too hollow for anyone
To just remain in shadow
Pulling backwards to sew me up
I'm on my way back home
Shadow blooms and I know
I'm on my way back home
Shadow blooms and I
Shadow blooms and I know
