Lyrics
Oh, come now, you can barely string
The person addressed struggles to articulate thoughts or communicate effectively.
Two words together now
Continuing the idea of difficulty in expressing oneself verbally or coherently.
And you think Europe's own worst specters
Suggests fears or concerns about historical European issues resurfacing.
Are coming back to haunt us all
Expresses the belief that past troubles or problems may return to affect everyone.
But oh, come on now
Encouragement to reconsider the negative thoughts expressed earlier.
'Cause we are sound, oh, we are light
Self-assurance about being strong and radiant as individuals or a group.
So let's go on into the night
Encouragement to move forward confidently despite challenges.
And I think that you were beautifully wounded
Recognition of someone's emotional scars or vulnerabilities.
Just like Francis was at the end
Comparison to Francis (likely Francis Bacon), hinting at being wounded but resilient.
And I think you, you're only strangers
Perception of others as unfamiliar and defensive.
And you're trying to protect yourselves
Belief that these individuals are trying to guard themselves.
But oh, come on now
Reiteration of the encouragement to reconsider negative thoughts.
'Cause we are sound, oh, we are light
Reassertion of strength and radiance as individuals or a collective.
So let's go on into the night
Encouragement to continue moving forward despite challenges.
And we can take it all
Confidence in the ability to handle everything or possess everything easily.
We could have it all so easily
Belief that obtaining or achieving everything is achievable.
We could take it
Emphasizing the potential to acquire or attain things gradually.
All now piece by piece
Suggesting the possibility of acquiring or obtaining everything bit by bit.
Come on now, oh, come on, oh, come on now
Continued urging to change negative perspectives into positive ones.
'Cause we are sound, oh, we are light
Reassertion of strength and radiance as individuals or a collective.
So let's go on into the night
Encouragement to continue moving forward despite challenges, reiterating the call to venture into uncertainty.
Into the night, into the night, into the night
Emphasizing the idea of moving forward despite uncertainties or darkness.
'Cause we are sound and we are light
Reassertion of strength and radiance as individuals or a collective.
So let's go on into the night
Encouragement to move forward despite challenges, repeating the idea of stepping into the unknown.
'Cause we are sound and we are light
Reassertion of strength and radiance as individuals or a collective.
So let's go on into the night
Encouragement to continue moving forward despite challenges, repeating the call to venture into the unknown.
