Lyrics

we made plans to be invincible

We formulated ambitious plans, aiming for invincibility.

but now we're moving on and on and on and on

Despite challenges, we continue to progress incessantly.

we were unbreakable as aspirations grew

We were resilient and unbeatable as our aspirations grew.

ambition blossoming into poise without a clue

Ambition developed into confidence, though lacking understanding.


there is no compromise

There is no room for negotiation or middle ground.


driving through the night,

Driving through the night without a specific destination.

no destination but we're moving on and on and on and on

We keep moving forward relentlessly.

return to emptiness

Returning to a state of emptiness.

return anguish too

Encountering and facing emotional pain once again.

although we've been away we're coming back to you

Despite our absence, we are returning to a familiar place.


now vacancy is all that we know

Currently, emptiness defines our existence.

we tried to take our chances

We attempted to seize opportunities.

complacency with nowhere to go

Feeling stagnant with no clear direction.

we've taken too much damage

We have endured significant hardships.


half those stars you see at night

Many of the stars visible at night burned out long ago.

burned out a million years ago,

They symbolize wishes made in the past.

and they're the ones I've wished on

Reflecting on wishes made upon those distant, extinguished stars.

yeah

Expressing a sense of acknowledgment or agreement.


we made plans to be invincible

Reiterating the earlier theme of planning for invincibility.


there is no compromise

Restating the uncompromising nature of the situation.


now vacancy is all that we know

Emphasizing the prevailing emptiness in our current state.

we tried to take our chances

We attempted to take risks and opportunities.

complacency with nowhere to go

Feeling stuck without progress or direction.

we've taken too much damage

We have experienced too much hardship and damage.
