Lyrics
There's something alive in the ruin
There is something vibrant or alive in the midst of destruction or ruin.
And I don't know what it's up to
The speaker is uncertain about the intentions or activities of the aforementioned "something" in the ruin.
Some blame it all on the moon
Some attribute the situation to the moon, suggesting a mysterious or celestial influence.
And there's nothin' we could do
Despite the circumstances, there is a sense of helplessness; nothing can be done to change it.
And I'd like to make this thing
The speaker expresses a desire to initiate or control the unfolding events, emphasizing the repetition of the word "happenin'."
Happenin', happenin'
-So I'd like to make this thing
-Happenin', it's happenin'
-Hold on to all we've got
An urging to hold on to what remains, possibly referring to emotional or tangible elements.
Hold on to all what's left
-And let it drop down a wall
Imagery of dropping down a wall, involving sweat, strobe lights, and the idea of being forgotten for all time.
For sweat and strobe light
-Breakin' balls
-It forgot you for all time
-And I'm about to sail off Earth
The speaker contemplates leaving Earth, drifting far and long, with determination to continue shamelessly.
We're driftin' so far
-We're driftin' so long
-And nothing gonna make me stop
-As I proceed
-As I proceed shamelessly
-Hold on to all we've got
Reiteration of the importance of holding on to what is left, emphasizing its significance.
Hold on to all what's left
-Hold on to all we've got
-Hold on to all what's left
-Came all-in for seventy-five
Reflection on a significant investment (seventy-five) and the challenges faced, possibly in love or life.
Just to show ya
-All my love, yes all my love
-I'm gonna be in my phony fraud
-It took my quite a while
-To lose what I acquired
-What I acquired
-This fluid off you do, seemed so strong
Reference to a strong emotional connection that was lost; contemplating the value of everything beyond the surface.
Got a hold of you, a hold of you
-But only if you knew what was beyond everything
-Everything wouldn't mean a thing
-Hold on to all we've got
Final repetition of the call to hold on to what remains, underlining its importance in the face of challenges.
Hold on to all what's left
-Hold on to all we've got
-Hold on to all what's left
