The song is about finding perfection and building a home with a romantic partner. The singer expresses that even if they never get to experience certain things, such as seeing the Mona Lisa or streets of Rome, being in their partner's arms is the right place for them. They proclaim not being afraid to die as long as their partner is next to them, holding them when the "curtains close".

Illenium Never seen Mona Lisa close But I've seen perfection under your clothes Yeah we fell in love and we built a home Though we may never see the streets of Rome
And I hope it's okay
'Cause the unknown is on its way
If I die in your arms
It's right where I'm supposed to be You know I'm not afraid As long as you're next to me So tell me, will you hold me When the curtains close If I died in your arms It's right where I'm supposed to be
Yeah we may never sleep under Northern Lights
But I've seen the stars flicker in your eyes
And I hope it's okay (it's okay)
'Cause the unknown is on its way
If I died in your arms
It's right where I'm supposed to be You know I'm not afraid As long as you're next to me So tell me, will you hold me When the curtains close If I died in your arms It's right where I'm supposed to be (It's okay) (It's okay)
If I died in your arms
It's right where I'm supposed to be (It's okay) (It's okay)
Lay me down in the ground by my hometown garden
We, we never leave But it feels like we've seen the whole world A thousand tears, when the tears on your parents' roof Forget my fears every time that I'm under you All along, all I needed was you So I swear, I'm not scared when it's over
If I die in your arms
It's right where I'm supposed to be You know I'm not afraid As long as you're next to me (so tell me) So tell me, will you hold me When the curtains close If I died in your arms It's right where I'm supposed to be (If I died)
