Pop Evil Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
All my no's just turned to yes
Silently I must confess
My troubled history
That's washed away all my sins
Starting over once again
This is where it all begins
It's right in front of me
Down is not where I belong
This aching heart won't turn to stone
There's a fire inside these bones
It was meant to be
I see the world still full of light
How could I ever be so blind
I still haven't lost my fight
That haunts me in my sleep
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
I've walked an empty mile
Wore down this lonely soul
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
(Woho woho woho)
Higher, go higher
(Woho wohoooo woho)
Higher, higher
I know only time will tell
If all the cards will treat me well
'Cause this hand that I been dealt
Keeps me wondering
So now here I turn the page
I've learned to silence all my rage
Tell me who can really say
What will tomorrow bring
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
I've walked an empty mile
Wore down this lonely soul
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
(Woho woho wooho)
Higher, go higher
(Woho woho woho)
Higher, higher
I'll find you
So far away
I'll find you
After all
I'll find you
So far away
I'll find you
After all
(I'll find you) I feel like waking up
(So far away) I've had this dream before
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I've walked an empty mile(I'll find you)
(So far away) Wore down this lonely soul(So far away)
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I feel like waking up
(So far away) I've had this dream before
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I've walked an empty mile(I'll find you)
(So far away) Wore down this lonely soul(So far away)
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, higher

I've been counting all my steps
I am keeping track of every move I make
All my no's just turned to yes
I have changed my mind and have started saying yes instead of no
Silently I must confess
I am admitting something to myself privately
My troubled history
My past has been full of difficulties
That's washed away all my sins
I feel like I have been forgiven for my mistakes and have a fresh start
Starting over once again
I am beginning again from the start
This is where it all begins
The starting point of my new journey
It's right in front of me
The opportunity I need is within reach
Down is not where I belong
I am meant to rise above my current state
This aching heart won't turn to stone
I refuse to be hardened by my struggles and heartbreaks
There's a fire inside these bones
I am full of passion and determination
It was meant to be
My goals and aspirations are my destiny
I see the world still full of light
I am optimistic about the future despite past hardships
How could I ever be so blind
I am reflecting on how I did not see things clearly before
I still haven't lost my fight
I am still determined to succeed
That haunts me in my sleep
My past struggles still affect me and affect my dreams
I feel like waking up
I feel ready to take action
I've had this dream before
I have had this vision before
I'll take these footsteps
I will take action and move towards my goals
Go higher, go higher
I will strive to reach new heights
I've walked an empty mile
I have experienced emptiness and loneliness on my journey
Wore down this lonely soul
My struggles have taken a toll on me emotionally
Higher, go higher
I am determined to aim even higher in my pursuits
I know only time will tell
I understand that the future is uncertain
If all the cards will treat me well
If fate will be kind to me
'Cause this hand that I been dealt
I have been given a set of circumstances that I must work with
Keeps me wondering
It leaves me uncertain about what the future holds
So now here I turn the page
I am beginning a new chapter of my life
I've learned to silence all my rage
I have learned to control my anger and negative emotions
Tell me who can really say
No one can know for sure
What will tomorrow bring
What the future holds is uncertain
I'll find you
I will achieve my goals
So far away
Although it feels distant and difficult to achieve
After all
In the end, I will succeed

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; RAGE , RAGE AGAINST THE the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. FIGHT, NEVER GIVE IN, YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT!
