Lyrics

Rock ‘n’ roll never cost me a thing

Expressing that the essence of rock 'n' roll hasn't caused any personal loss.

Don’t believe everything that you think

Encouraging skepticism and not blindly accepting everything one thinks.

I fell in love with the je ne sais quoi

Falling in love with the indefinable quality (je ne sais quoi) of something or someone.

She kiss me more even when I am gone

Expressing affection, even in absence, suggesting a deep connection.


Now this means nothing, but bless my soul

Acknowledging that the current situation has little significance, asking for blessings.

We’re shakin '’ make a scene

Describing a scene or event with enthusiasm, possibly chaotic.

Reckless, understand that midnight never came

Being reckless, understanding that certain moments or opportunities may never come again.

We are dancing on the edge of a cliff

Dancing metaphorically on the edge of danger or uncertainty.


Rock ‘n’ roll never gave me a thing

Repeating the idea that rock 'n' roll hasn't provided material gain, but has enriched life.

Except a heart and a soul and mind and all the things for joie de vivre

Listing elements gained from rock 'n' roll, emphasizing the joy of life.


Just because the end result are leaps and bounds above the modus operandi cliché

Highlighting that the end results surpass the typical clichéd methods.

Doesn’t make it more than nudum pactum

Stating that superior outcomes don't elevate them beyond a basic agreement or contract.

And yet I speak verbatim at the moment and mean with bona fide carte blanche

Speaking truthfully in the moment, with genuine and unrestricted expression.

I’m forever bleeding

Expressing enduring pain or vulnerability.


Etc etc de facto

Using "etc etc de facto" suggests a continuation of similar situations or facts.


Anticipation

Expressing a feeling of anticipation.

Interpretation of it

Reflecting on the interpretation of anticipation.

Accoutrements already out

Suggesting that necessary items or accessories are already in place.

Destination still unknown

Indicating an unknown future destination despite preparedness.


They glorify mundane

Criticizing the glorification of the mundane or ordinary.

That’s all

Suggesting a dismissive attitude toward the aforementioned glorification.


They take the time to show face

Observing that some individuals take the time to be present.

They stand on top of the crowd

Noting individuals who rise above the crowd, possibly in a figurative sense.

But could this be love

Pondering the possibility of love amidst uncertainty.

If these diamonds are fake?

Raising doubt about the authenticity of love if associated with fake diamonds, implying superficiality.
