Hold On Till May Analysis

This is the analysis of Hold On Till May by Pierce the Veil. It is a conversation between a guy and a girl on why she should stay alive and how he is telling her that she is okay, he tries to show he is there for her. What I say might not mean to you what it does to me, but this is just my gathering. If you agree, then you do. If you disagree, then you don't. Either way this song is amazing so if you don't like what I say, or even if you do, give this song a little listen. It is truly beautiful.

(She sits up high,
Surrounded by the sun.
One million branches and
she loves every one.)
It is like she is in a room full of people and she cares about them all. As you look into the words she isn't actually surrounded by the sun. The sun can be a number of different things but mainly it is an analogy for the world. 

(Mom and Dad,
Did you search for me,
I've been up here so long,
I'm going crazy.)

Surrounded by all the people in the world, her own parents did not even care to notice her. She is feeling crazy for waiting on the reliance that does not seem like it will ever come.

(And as the sun went down,

We ended up on the ground.

I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound.)

As the world fell apart, we came down to the ground to see the damage. The disaster was like an metaphor of the craziness that came from it, and she couldn't take it.

(And as we own this night,
I put your body to the test with mine.)
I will help you, all the energy I have help you with. We will make this better and get through this.

(This love was out of control,
3-2-1 where did it go?)

What happened to the world, we were all okay now its gone.

(Now don't be crazy, yes now,
Of course you can stay here
been in a touring band for going on ten years)
He tells that of course he will help her get back up. That it will an amazing distraction for her. He wants to help her so bad.

("Big deal," She said, " i guess you're official"
I only said it 'cause I know what it's like to feel

BURNED OUT)
Going to back when she was mentioning her mom and dad and saying she is going crazy she tries to defend herself saying she didn't mean it. She tries to cover up what she was trying to say. She does not want him to realize what she truly means yet. She says he is official because now even though she is resisting him she realizes that he means something to her, she knows what he is trying to do, she tries to hide it and write him off like she does not see it however.

(It gets you down,
We've all been there sometimes
But tonight I'll make you feel beautiful once again.)
He tells her that everyone goes through the crap that she is going through, he tells her that he can help. 

(And as the sun went down,
We ended up on the ground.
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound.
And as we own this night,
I put your body to the test with mine.
This love was out of control,
3-2-1 where did it go?)

(If I were you, I'd put that away
See, you're just wasted
And thinking about the past again
Darling, you'll be okay.)
He is telling her that she is alright. He tells her that she just needs to wake up and realize the important things she is not noticing right in front of her.

(She said,
"If you were me, you'd do the same
'cause I can't take anymore
I'll draw the shades and close the door
Everything's not alright and I would rather....")

If he was her she thinks he would understand she would rather be dead then unloved and alone, yet she still does not understand she is not alone and he is there for her.

(And as the sun went down,
We ended up on the ground.
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound.
And as we own this night,
I put your body to the test with mine.
This love was out of control,
Tell me, where did it go?)
