Lyrics
Whose side are you on?
Questioning allegiance or loyalty
Whose side are you on?
Repetition of the question about loyalty
Whose side are you on?
Continuation of the theme, emphasizing the uncertainty
Whose side are you on?
Reiteration, reinforcing the importance of choosing sides
No, nobody's called here in days
Isolation indicated by a lack of incoming calls
And no one ever calls these days
Highlighting the absence of communication in contemporary times
Looking out at the city lights
Observation of urban lights, possibly symbolizing a disconnected society
Looking down on the streets tonight
Contemplation of the city streets at night, suggesting a sense of detachment
Oh, no, it's not safe
Expressing a feeling of danger or insecurity
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Repetition emphasizing the lack of safety
It's not safe
-It's not safe
-It's not safe
-It's not safe
-I used to pray for the heavens to fall
Reflecting on a past desire for a significant change or event
I used to pray for the heavens to fall
-I used to pray for the heavens to fall
-And now I never want this to end
Contrast with previous longing, indicating a current desire for continuity
See there's nothing that compares to
Expressing the uniqueness and incomparability of being together
When I'm holed up in here with you
-See there's nothing that compares to
-When I'm holed up in here with you
-When I'm holed up in here with you
-When I'm holed up in here with you
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Reiteration of the feeling of unsafety
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Continued emphasis on the lack of safety
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Repeated assertions of the unsafe environment
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Continuing to highlight the lack of safety
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Reiteration of the unsafe conditions
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-Oh, no, it's not safe
Continued expression of danger
Ooh, ooh, ooh
-It's not safe
-For God's sake
Concluding with a plea or realization that it is not safe
It's not safe
-It's not safe
-It's not safe
-Whose side are you on?
Returning to the theme of questioning allegiance or loyalty
Whose side are you on?
-Whose side are you on?
-Whose side are you on?
