Lyrics
Praying for a clear-cut sign
Expressing a desire for a clear and unmistakable indication or guidance.
Fighting for the last in line
Fighting or competing for the last position or opportunity.
Taking care of things with fists
Resorting to physical force, possibly metaphorically, to handle matters.
Crossing names off of our list
Eliminating or dealing with individuals on a list, suggesting conflict or confrontation.
Don't mind the apocalypse
Disregarding a catastrophic event, focusing on survival.
Forget about the chains and whips
Ignoring constraints and challenges like chains and whips.
Save your strength we'll need your powers
Encouraging others to conserve strength for a collective escape.
We're breaking out of here on our terms
Planning to break free from a situation on their own terms.
But if I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
Expressing concern about the possibility of not returning home.
If I can't get home to you
-If I don't get home to you (if I don't get home to you)
-Fighting for the last in line
Continuing the theme of competition, conflict, and resolution.
Hoping for a clear-cut sign
-Crossing names off of our list
-Taking care of things with our fists
-But if I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
Reiterating the concern about not being able to return home.
If I can't get home to you
-If I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
-If I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
-But if I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
-If I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
-If I can't get home to you (if I can't get home to you)
-If I can't get home to you
-I guess we're taking it to the grave
Acceptance of the uncertainty, suggesting secrets or unresolved issues being taken to the grave.
I'll never know
-'Cause you're taking it to the grave
-Guess we're taking it to the grave
-Ah-ah-ah
Reinforcing the idea of secrets being buried and hidden.
Ah-ah-ah
-'Cause we're taking it to the grave
Confirmation of taking undisclosed matters to the grave.
Ah-ah-ah
Repeating the concept of secrets being concealed forever.
Ah-ah-ah
-I'll never know
Emphasizing the eternal unknowability of certain issues.
Ah-ah-ah
Reiterating the idea of burying secrets that will never be revealed.
'Cause we're taking it to the grave
Confirming the act of taking undisclosed matters to the grave.
Ah-ah-ah
Stressing the permanence of keeping certain things hidden.
I'll never know
Repeating the notion that some things will never be known.
'Cause you're taking it to the grave
Final confirmation of the commitment to taking secrets to the grave.
