Lyrics
Well I believe there's something watching over you
Belief in a protective force overseeing one's life.
They're watching every single thing you say
Awareness of constant observation and scrutiny of actions.
And when you die they'll set you down and take you through
Anticipation of a post-death review and revelation of truths.
You'll realize one day
A realization dawning at a later point in life.
That the grass is always greener on the other side
Expressing the common desire for better circumstances elsewhere.
The neighbour's got a new car that you want to drive
Desire for possessions others have, symbolized by a new car.
And when time is running out you want to stay alive
Yearning for survival when facing imminent challenges.
We all live under the same sky
Unity under a shared sky, emphasizing commonality.
We all will live we all will die
Recognition of the universal experiences of life and death.
There is no wrong
Assertion of moral ambiguity, negating absolute right or wrong.
There is no right
Emphasis on the absence of clear distinctions between right and wrong.
The circle only has one side
Metaphorical representation of life as a singular, unified journey.
We all try hard to live our lives in harmony
Striving for a harmonious life despite inherent challenges.
For fear of falling swiftly overboard
Fear of succumbing to life's challenges and uncertainties.
But life is both a major and minor key
Life represented as a mix of both positive and negative elements.
Just open up the chord
An encouragement to embrace the complexities of life.
But the grass is always greener on the otherside
Reiteration of the desire for a seemingly better situation elsewhere.
The neighbour's got a new car that you want to drive
Symbolic desire for possessions, emphasizing materialistic comparisons.
And when time is running out you want to stay alive
Continued yearning for survival when faced with challenges.
We all live under the same sky
Restatement of shared existence under a common sky.
We all will live
Affirmation of the inevitability of life for everyone.
We all will die
Reiteration of the universality of death as a shared experience.
There is no wrong
Rejection of absolute moral judgments, emphasizing ambiguity.
There is no right
Reiteration of the absence of clear distinctions between right and wrong.
The circle only has one side
Reiteration of life's journey as a singular, unified experience.
