Goonies Never Say Die!
Set Your Goals Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll make a go of this and wish for better things than what I've seen
“I'll look forward, straight, and ahead,” easier said than done
I know, for this time, I'm gonna try
Turn around and close your eyes, wasted days and smiles
Talk is cheap, and mine's the worst
I've realized my actions are worth so much more than they were before
It's time for me to gather all my thoughts,
Turn them all inside out and see what it's all about
Turn around, and close your eyes – wasted days and smiles
I need to find what might be mine, just let me go this time.
Don't say, “I quit”
I'll be back
I need to find what might be mine, just let me go this time
Your face never looked so sad, no need to worry, cause I'll be back
I'm just tired of the same routine; I need to find what it is waiting out there for me
The lyrics of Set Your Goals' song, "Goonies Never Say Die!" speak of determination and a sense of purpose. The first stanza sets up the theme of the song, with the singer taking aim with balled up fists and hoping for something better than what they've experienced so far. The second verse is about the realization that talk is not enough, and actions speak louder than words. The singer is ready to turn their thoughts inside out and find a new direction. The chorus repeats the idea of wasted time but also shows a yearning for something more significant, something that belongs to the singer alone.
The bridge of the song comes with a meassage of hope, a plea almost, for the listener not to give up. The singer declares that they'll be back and return with renewed vigor and a willingness to find what they're looking for. The song is an anthem for those who are tired of the same routine and wish to break away from it.
