Time Is Never On Your Side
Race Against Time: Unveiling Life's Pressures in Electric Milk's Melody
Lyrics
Days, they get shorter all the time
Days are consistently getting shorter, implying a sense of time passing quickly.
The way you spend it must be right
How time is spent must be done correctly or wisely.
You don't wanna lose the fight
Emphasis on avoiding defeat or failure in life's challenges.
And they, expect it done by a deadline
Tasks are expected to be completed within a specified time frame (deadline).
The pressure building all the time
Pressure is constantly increasing as time progresses.
Don't think that you can hide
There is no escape or avoidance from the challenges that come with time.
I am slowly
Introduction of a personal perspective or experience.
I'm slowly running out of time
The speaker is running out of time, possibly feeling a sense of urgency or impending deadline.
All these things and
Various concerns or responsibilities in life.
Nothing's on my side
A feeling of being unsupported or facing challenges alone.
I am slowly
Reiteration of the speaker running out of time, emphasizing the urgency.
I'm slowly running out of time
Continuation of the theme of time running out and challenges mounting.
All these things and
Repetition of the challenges and lack of support.
Nothing's on my side
Reiteration of the feeling that nothing is working in the speaker's favor.
Ways, ways out of this are looking bleak
Options or solutions for the challenges seem unpromising.
Let's hope you're landing on your feet
Hope for a positive outcome or recovery from difficulties.
Or you'll be out on the streets
Warning of potential dire consequences if the situation does not improve.
And time, time is never on your side
Time is portrayed as an adversary, not being favorable to the speaker.
You can run but never hide
No matter how fast one runs, challenges cannot be avoided.
Let's hope you're making up your
A strong expression of frustration or determination to make a decision.
FUCKING MIND!
Intense emotion, possibly anger or frustration, towards decision-making.
I am slowly
Repetition of the urgency of running out of time.
I'm slowly running out of time
The speaker is emphasizing the dwindling time and increasing pressure.
All these things and
Restating the challenges and lack of support.
Nothing's on my side
Reiteration of the feeling that nothing is on the speaker's side.
I am slowly
Continuation of the urgent situation and time running out.
I'm slowly running out of time
Emphasizing the challenges and lack of favorable circumstances.
All these things and
Repetition of the theme that nothing is in the speaker's favor.
Nothing's on my side
Reiteration of the challenges and lack of support.
I am slowly
Continuation of the urgency and time slipping away.
I'm slowly running out of time
Repetition of the challenges and the absence of support or positive factors.
All these things and
Emphasizing the urgency and the lack of favorable circumstances.
Nothing's on my side
Repetition of the theme that nothing is in the speaker's favor.
I am slowly
Continuation of the urgent situation and time running out.
I'm slowly running out of time
Reiteration of the challenges and lack of support.
All these things and
Restating the feeling that nothing is on the speaker's side.
Nothing's on my side
Final emphasis on the theme that nothing is working in the speaker's favor.
