Back to Life
Eternal Resurgence: Unveiling the Profound Rebirth in 'Back to Life'
Lyrics
You come back to life
You revive or come back to life.
Always when the stars die, always when the stars die
Repetition emphasizes that coming back to life occurs when the stars die.
You come back to life
Reiteration of the theme of revival or renewal.
I can't wait to go
Expressing eagerness to depart.
But heaven knows that I could stay
Although the desire is to leave, there's an internal conflict as staying is also appealing.
There's something that I'm bound by
An obligation or something unexplained that holds the person back.
You're coming back to life
Reaffirmation of the theme of coming back to life.
But I will not give in to everything you say
Asserting a refusal to yield to every statement or demand.
I won't let it begin so try your luck again
Resolute stance against allowing something to start anew, encouraging another attempt.
Time and time again
Repeated instances over time.
I was beside you oh and I couldn't stand it
The speaker was beside someone but found it unbearable.
You say I'm a fool but this has gone too far and no longer charming
Acknowledging criticism but deeming the situation no longer attractive.
Ouuuuuuuh
An exclamation expressing strong emotion, possibly frustration or realization.
No I couldn't stand it
Reiteration of being unable to tolerate a certain situation.
But can you ever hold back?
Questioning the ability to restrain oneself.
Like you could ever hold back
Expressing doubt about the possibility of holding back.
Welcome back to life
Welcoming the return to life.
Of course it's when the stars die
Reaffirmation that revival happens when the stars die.
It's never ever a surprise
Highlighting the predictability of the revival, never a surprise.
When you come back to life
Reiteration of the theme of returning to life.
But can't you just forget what we've been through?
Expressing a desire to forget past experiences.
I can't let you back in so try your luck again
Rejecting the idea of allowing someone back in, encouraging another attempt.
Time and time again
Repeated instances over time.
I was beside you oh and I couldn't stand it
The speaker was beside someone but found it unbearable (repeated).
You say I'm a fool but this has gone too far and no longer charming
Reiterating that a situation has gone too far and lost its appeal.
Ouuuuuuuh
An exclamation expressing strong emotion, possibly frustration or realization (repeated).
No I couldn't stand it
Reiteration of being unable to tolerate a certain situation (repeated).
Why can't you hold back?
Raising the question of why one can't hold back.

Time and time again (x2)

I was beside you oh and I couldn't stand it

You say I'm a fool but this has gone too far and no longer charming

Ouuuuuuuh

Expressing doubt about the ability to truly hold back.
