Lyrics
You can feel your nerve endings
You are aware of your nerve endings.
They've been dead before today
These nerve endings have experienced a lack of vitality in the past.
You can feel them rising
You can sense them becoming active.
Feel them rising all the way
The sensation intensifies and continues to rise.
You've got grease on your fingers
Your fingers have a substance, possibly symbolic of work or struggle.
Oil on your face
There is evidence of hard work or challenges on your face.
Happy completely chasing the pace
You are content and fully engaged in pursuing a certain rhythm or lifestyle.
Happy to find out even this late
Despite the passage of time, you are pleased to discover something positive.
You're not a number
You are emphasized as an individual, not merely a statistic or identifier.
There's a new sense of freedom
A newfound feeling of liberation is approaching.
Come banging on your door
This sense of freedom is forcefully making itself known.
Deep down inside you
Deep within you, there is an awareness of having encountered similar experiences.
You've seen it all somewhere before
You have witnessed everything that is happening before in some form.
Somewhere in the past
This familiarity is linked to events in the past.
Somewhere in a dream
It may also be connected to a dream or aspiration.
It's got you completely and you know what it means
You are fully immersed in this experience, understanding its significance.
Happy to find out even this late
Even at a late stage, you are happy to uncover positive revelations.
You're not a number
Reiteration of the idea that you are not just a number or statistic.
There's a new sense of freedom
The renewed feeling of freedom persists and insists on recognition.
Come banging on your door
This sense of liberation is demanding attention at your doorstep.
Deep down inside you
Similar to line 14, there's an inner recognition of past experiences.
You've seen it all somewhere before
You have a sense of familiarity with everything unfolding.
You've got grease on your fingers
Repetition of the idea that your hands are marked by hard work or challenges.
Oil on your face
Reiteration of evidence of struggle or effort on your face.
And you're happy completely chasing the pace
You are content and actively pursuing a certain pace or lifestyle.
Happy to find out even this late
Even at a late stage in life, you are happy to discover positive aspects.
You're not a number
Emphasis on your individuality and not being reduced to a mere number.
