"I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me." Right in the feels.

[@deandeck]

Funny, I've been puzzling over this line... I don't understand it. Can you explain? I mean I get that the narrator of the song is saying this but...why would the subject (the person the song is about) be lying awake for the narrator? And why would the narrator be hoping that's not the case? And why is this situation so meaningful?

[@Mudokony]

@@deandeck Probably because being not able to sleep properly isn't fun

[@camarada9755]

@@deandeck I think it's to say that the narrator is lying awake due to him being worried for Gloria's well-being. They seem to be mentioning Gloria's use of alcohol throughout the song. No one enjoys lying awake b/c of stress or worry for a loved one, hence why he says he prays she doesn't lie awake for him (also). As it's troubling. Wonderful song and very deep story!

[@deandeck]

@@camarada9755 I know why the narrator is lying awake, just not why the drunken mom is. Sounds like she'd sleep really well.

[@camarada9755]

@@deandeck Maybe b/c she is an addict, and is aware that it might be affecting her family.. just my two cents.But music can be interpreted in a multitude of ways :)

[@CarlosMartinez-cv9nm]

"I would lie awake and pray you don't lie awake for me." Because Gloria is the mom in this story, and she's an alcoholic. And her child is up at night, hoping their mom isn't up (drinking) because of them. Heart-breaking.

Lost my mother to alcohol when I was 14. She pretty much died of organs failure and had hepatitis B, she only drank for ten years...but I guess she had her reasons to stay high always.

Thank you for this song. My mother is 70 and still an alcoholic. Remarkable that for some people.. enough is never enough.

[@ColdAsHe11]

WHO IS GLORIA? Someone's widow? Did she struggle with drug and alcohol addiction? Did she die from this or something else? Was she a single mother? Did she break someone's heart? Was she lost in the shuffle and fell through the cracks of life? I don't know, I might never find out. But I've been dancing around the house singing this song for the past few hours. Laughing, crying, living. Thank you, Lumineers. I can't wait to hear the rest of this album...

[@jameel6737]

ColdAsHe11 feel u on this

[@meganm9117]

ColdAsHe11 this is just a guess, but for some reason I feel like it could be about Any Winehouse. She was a drug addict and drank. But, if she isn’t Gloria who is? Well, I think it could be something that goes with the story of Cleopatra, Ophelia, Angela, etc. I’m hoping a music video comes out and has some sort of explanation. Maybe other songs released would help us know. We may never know, but I hope we do someday.

[@AcidHotpocket]

I absolutely love this song. But the most beautiful moment of this video is at 1:49. There are no lyrics, but the subtle, powerful visual is incredibly moving. In this shot alone, you can see the beauty of Gloria peak through with the slightly askew black bar showing a slim window at the happiness she feels with her children. There is no pain, no addiction. Just love. Just a moment of clarity into what's important in life. It's mesmerizing and hauntingly wonderful

[@camilazarzaortega8700]

You guys are my favorite band EVER. I love every song and every video, too.

3:05 is so fucking special to me When this song came out in 2019, I was in a really bad place both physically and mentally. Often thinking nothing would get better, losing weight and hair, etc. It was really bad. I was self-destructing in a horrible and reckless way. I lived with my parents at that time. My mom (bless her) tried to put up with me as long as she could. Going out her way. But I was practically an asshole. I gave up on saving my own life and we had many arguments. In one of those arguments, she goes and tells me “what is it that you want? to die? there’s easier ways if you want it! just say it!” afterwards I found this song and it pulled me into self reflection. I spent heavenly hours listening to it. As a coping mechanism I guess. Nowadays, I’m better. I overcame that specific thing that was making me self-destruct. Although still in a shitty place, it isn’t as bad as it was then. And this song, fucking hell, speaks to me in ways I can’t believe.

[@joshuastafford2703]

Can't wait to see them for the 4th time in Manchester this November. I've loved their music for the last 7 years. They remind me of my travels through Europe, the people I've met and the soundtrack of the love of my life, whom I marry next year and just bought our first home together. They are the soundtrack of all my adventures by motorcycle and they make me feel nostalgic for memories I haven't even made yet. The lumineers are simply magical.

[@eveflyaway]

Amazing band! The Lumineers are amazing musicians and singer-songwriters, and it is extremely difficult or impossible to understand why a person would not like them. Honestly, I have not found anyone who doesn't like The Lumineers, even if they don't become one of their favorite bands. Still, there are all kinds of people and musical tastes in this crazy world. We must respect other musical tastes, even if we don't get them. The Lumineers play their instruments beautifully, their voices are raw and soothing, and their lyrics are real-life stories that people can relate to directly or indirectly. Many of their songs make one want to clap and dance; others make you reflect and feel sad, and there’s nothing wrong with it. All kinds of human emotions are covered in their music, which is genuine, honest, and good to many people and me. 🙂
