Rockets of Liberation: Exploring the Depths of Freedom in Paul Weller's Lyrics
Lyrics
He went off
Departed suddenly or swiftly
Like a rocket touched
Departed rapidly, similar to a rocket's touch or takeoff
Way up in the sky
Reached a high altitude in the sky
Beyond the bars in our minds
Transcended mental barriers or limitations
Just took off
Departed swiftly or suddenly
Rocket to the sun
Progressed rapidly towards the sun
Blast his way through here
Forced his way through obstacles or challenges
Beyond the world in our eyes
Surpassed the perceived limitations of the world around us
We grow up
Reached maturity
If we can join the dots
Understood the connections that led to a certain point
That got us here to there
Understood the sequence of events or decisions that brought one from 'here' to 'there'
Beyond our dreams in the spheres
Transcended the limits of one's aspirations or ambitions
You go off
Departed swiftly or suddenly
Like little fireworks
Departed energetically or brightly, akin to fireworks
Exploding in the street
Expressed oneself passionately or explosively
And crumpled sheets where we lie
Referred to the aftermath of passionate expression in intimate settings
All our lives
Throughout our existence or lifetime
The system all decides
Decisions made by the societal structure govern our lives
The institution's old
The established systems are antiquated but retain authority
But still in control
Continues to exert influence and power
Nothing in the chambers worth nothing at all
Nothing substantial or valuable in the discussions or deliberations
All the wealth is hidden, diamonds a-glisten
Wealth is concealed, precious items shimmer
And solid gold
Precious and stable material possessions
Well, have it all, it's worthless
The possessions or achievements, though abundant, hold no true value
