Hit The Ground
Navigating the Abyss of Love: Decoding 'Hit The Ground' by Desmond and the Tutus
Lyrics
I'm not an expert
I lack expertise
On falling
In the context of falling
I'm not an expert
Still lacking expertise
On much at all
In various aspects of life
I can't do expert
I can't expertly handle
Any morning
Any morning situation
This too ends the same way as before
This situation repeats
I'm full of holes and
I have flaws
You're full of holes
You also have flaws
That's what makes this whole thing so easy
Our imperfections make things easy
We love trying
We enjoy attempting
I'm sick of lying
I'm tired of dishonesty
We'll keep going till this thing leaves me
We persist until this situation ends
The thing about falling
Discussing the nature of falling
Is that at some point
Emphasizing that eventually
You hit the ground
Falling results in hitting the ground
What's the point of starting out like this
Questioning the purpose of starting in a certain way
When it just turns
When it consistently
Out the same?
Ends up being the same
All this effort
All the effort put in
All this time
All the time spent
All the plans
All the plans made
All in vain
Result in failure
Do yourself a favour
Advising to do a favor for oneself
Do me a favour and don't
Asking not to
Enjoy it while it last
Enjoy the current situation too much
Do you yourself a favour
Repeating the advice
Do me a favour
Asking not to
Don't
Indicating avoidance
Leave it in the past
Leave the situation in the past
The thing about falling
Reiterating the nature of falling
You know at some point
Highlighting the inevitable consequence
You hit the ground
Repeating the idea of hitting the ground
