[Part I]
[Intro: Future]
Drop your location, she think she me or sum’ (Hendrix)
Put on my chains, now she think she me or sum’
She keep a Glock in her bag, she think …
[Verse 1]
You said, “Speak from your mind
The words that it finds
Come out of your soul, a part of the whole”
You said, “What does it change?
Both of us know
After tonight, there …
[TONY]
Maria…
The most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
Maria, Maria…
Maria!
I’ve just met a girl named Maria
And …
[Verse 1]
What happens in dreams where we fly?
Never been as high as tonight
Staring through a window in time
For someone to show me what I’m like
He said, “Hello”, it’s like a …
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh, every little smile hides a little lie
Could cut the silence with a knife
Subatomic bliss is nothing left to miss
It’s just empty Russian roulette
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to brush it off my …
Sail! 22
[Verse 1]
This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because 23
I blame it on my A.D.D. baby 24
This is how an angel dies
I blame it on my own sick pride
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby 25
[Chorus]
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
[Verse 2]
Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby 26
Maybe I’m a different breed
Maybe I’m not listening
So blame it on my A.D.D. baby 27
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
La la la la la la oh!
La la la la la la oh!
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me, sail with me
Sail! 28
Awolnation starts the song by introducing the word sail, which is also the title of the song. Sail here is probably being used as a metaphor for leaving for whatever reason. It can mean a physical or psychological departure. In his video, Aaron starts by running away from unknown forces, which are never shown, leaving it open to any interpretation.
Aaron sings that this is how he shows his love, he is probably talking to a person who does fully understand him and how he operates. Either way, he does what his mind tells, so he will keep doing what he does, the way he does.
At the end of it all he says it can be blamed on his A.D.D. which he has and has talked about in an interview PureGrainAudio. A.D.D. is a psychological disorder whose full name is Attention Deficit Disorder, some of its symptoms include the inability to concentrate on one thing for long periods of time, failure to listen closely or making what might be termed as careless mistakes, being easily distracted and more. In this song he blames his inability to love adequately in his disorder, which is not one of the symptoms of the disorder.
Aaron uses this line to symbolize the breakdown of their relationship by hurting his girl and in retrospect he blames his ego and uses A.D.D. as the scapegoat, which is different from Anti personality Disorders.
Aaron considers doing various actions which could be brought on by the loss of his girl and the remorse that seems to be getting to him. His thought process can be traced how it jumps from one rational solution to another completely irrational one. He considers these actions because possibly anyone who knows him will first blame the A.D.D.
He agrees that he is different from other people and accepts it but admits that he is not listening to other people because of his A.D.D. which is one genuine symptom of the disorder, although he could also just be choosing not to listen. Either way, this is the only line in which, he truly blames the A.D.D. that is why he uses the word ‘So’ at the beginning of the sentence for more emphasis.
Aaron once again uses these lines to bring more ambiguity into the song. Therefore, it could be his wish to physically leave with his girl, a choice to continue in a relationship with problems, a psychological departure from what bothers him or on the dark side a suicide like that of Romeo and Juliet.
