Steady as She Goes: Red December's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
Soon enough you'll know why we came
Anticipation of a revelation or purpose for their presence
Running from those who thought we were insane
Escaping judgment from those who perceived them as crazy
Living though madness during this time of sadness
Surviving through a period of chaos and sorrow
Oh you know so let's get it on a roll
Expressing readiness to engage and initiate action
Steady as she goes oh
Steadiness and consistency in their approach
Take it all away
Emphasizing the desire to remove or escape from something
Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
Repetition of the theme of steadiness and removal or detachment
Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Playing like we're kids still rolling through the park
Recalling carefree times, possibly nostalgia for youth
Now we're out every night, staying after dark
Transitioning to a lifestyle of staying out late
Causing all the trouble. Searching through the ruble
Creating chaos, exploring the aftermath, seeking meaning
Going out again just to take it all in
Repeating the cycle of going out to absorb experiences
Steady as she goes oh
Continuation of the theme of steadiness and detachment
Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes oh
Final repetition emphasizing steadiness and detachment
Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
-Steady as she goes on
-Take it all away
-Take it all away
-Oh Steady as she goes
