On and On
Revolutionary Echoes: Unveiling the Depths of 'On and On' by Shark Island
Lyrics
I wish that I ain't, I wish that I won't
Expressing a desire not to be or not to engage in something.
I buy me some rope, or choke from the smoke.
Contemplating drastic measures like buying rope or succumbing to the effects of smoke.
So one for the road, oh I's a heavy load.
Feeling burdened or weighed down by life's challenges.
Impeccable word,
Suggesting a commitment to speaking truthfully or flawlessly.
oh, It's a revolutionary war,
Metaphorically likening a situation to a revolutionary war, implying conflict or upheaval.
In front of your eyes.
Stating that something significant is happening right before one's eyes.
A sea of blood followed by paradise.
Describing a violent or turbulent event followed by a hopeful, better state.
You think that it's real,
Challenging the perception of reality.
You think that it's all a big deal.
Questioning the significance or seriousness of a situation.
No more the baby, the Milo.
Transitioning from a dependent or innocent state to something more mature or aware.
Rest and for all, and it ain't no joke.
Emphasizing a point that is serious and not to be taken lightly.
I wish I could feel all day long.
Longing for prolonged emotional sensation.
Time to relate, relate it to all of the hate.
Relating current circumstances to pervasive feelings of hate.
You think that it's real,
Reiterating the challenge to accepted reality.
you think that it's all some big deal.
Repeating the questioning of the significance or seriousness of a situation.
It's off of the rail,
Describing a situation as being beyond control or order.
now it's all off the rails.
Emphasizing the complete departure from a structured or expected path.
I pray that I ain't, I pray that I won't.
Expressing a wish not to be or not to engage in something, similar to line 1.
I buy me some rope, or choke from the smoke.
Reiterating the contemplation of extreme measures due to overwhelming circumstances.
And all of the years, seemed like an awful big deal.
Reflecting on a long passage of time that seemed significant or burdensome.
