Lyrics

Dragged up grasping death soil tight

Metaphorical expression of being raised in a dark and death-like environment.

We made our own electric light

Creating one's own illumination, possibly symbolizing self-reliance.

Competition's bright and loud

Emphasizing the intense competition, suggesting a challenging upbringing.

'Cos only the best get out

Highlighting that only the best individuals manage to escape the challenging environment.

And every other flame goes out

Recognition of the transient nature of success and fame.

Wanna get out

Desire to escape the difficult environment without succumbing to its challenges.

Not go out

-

Wanna get out

-

Not go out

-

We grew up in the graveyard

Reiteration of the challenging upbringing, emphasizing the graveyard metaphor.

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in the graveyard

-

I had a QWERTY dirty relationship

Describing a complex and possibly problematic relationship with technology.

With every MacBook microchip

-

Grab every talent, milk it hard

Encouragement to develop skills and abilities despite challenging circumstances.

Fatten up that repertoire

-

For M4 is your abattoir

-

Wanna get out

Continued desire to escape the difficult environment without succumbing to its challenges.

Not go out

-

Wanna get out

-

Not go out

-

We grew up in the graveyard

Repetition of the graveyard metaphor, emphasizing the impact of the challenging upbringing.

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in the graveyard

-

Oh

An interjection, possibly expressing emotion or emphasis.

We're scared to go back home

Fear of returning home, suggesting a troubled relationship with the living.

In case the living disappear

-

And leave us all alone

-

Where we were

Reflecting on the past and the difficult circumstances in which one was raised.

Dragged up grasping death soil tight

Reiteration of the challenging upbringing and a sense of darkness in the environment.

And the stars never shone too bright

-

'Cos we grew up in a graveyard

Final emphasis on growing up in a graveyard, solidifying the metaphor throughout the lyrics.

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in the graveyard

-

We grew up in a graveyard

Reiteration of the upbringing in a graveyard, concluding the narrative.
