It Keeps Going
Eternal Echoes: Unraveling the Heartfelt Journey in 'It Keeps Going'
Lyrics
When will you come, come to your senses?
Asking when the person will become more aware and rational.
Realize it's not only my heart you're breaking?
Expressing the realization that the person is causing emotional pain beyond just affecting the singer's heart.
Laugh it off to cry inside your kitchen
Minimizing emotional pain by laughing outwardly while feeling sorrow internally.
Locked in for weeks, your friends become your fiction
Being isolated for an extended period, turning friends into imaginary characters or distant memories.
All we wanted to do was ask you how you've been
Expressing a desire to check on the person's well-being.
The world ain't some object you can turn on and off again
Highlighting the world's continuous nature, emphasizing it can't be controlled or restarted at will.
It just keeps going
Stating the unstoppable nature of life, time, and events.
Remember the nights in the North Country?
Recalling past moments of joy and camaraderie in the North Country.
Singing and dancing in the snow
Describing joyful activities in a snowy setting during those remembered nights.
So young and so sad so happily
Expressing a mix of youth, sadness, and happiness during those moments.
Remember those nights if you never decide to show
Encouraging the person to remember those nights even if they choose not to participate again.
You can come around if you feel that you've been missing out
Inviting the person back into the fold if they feel they've missed out on experiences.
Just don't expect things to be the same
Warning that things might not be the same upon the person's return.
Cause the world it's been moving ever since you went away
Acknowledging the world's continuous progression since the person's absence.
But our love for you it stays the same
Assuring that, despite changes, the love for the person remains constant.
My friend, our love for you it doesn't change
Reiterating the unwavering nature of the love for the person.
It just keeps going
Emphasizing the persistence of life and emotions despite external changes.
