A Little Faster
There for Tomorrow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You keep calling it a crash and burn
Just wait your turn
You might have time to speak
There barely was a lesson learned
'Cause it'll return no favors back to me

I'm sure it tasted oh so sweet
But it was never good enough for me
I bit the tongue behind my teeth
It was never good enough for me

You said you always keep your word
Show me what you're after
I thought you'd promise me the world
Tell me what you're after
Go on and take it way too far
'Cause here we are, waiting once again
You said you always keep your word
Show me what you're after
Just a little faster

Are mine the only eyes that see, so steadily
This cut-and-dry routine
Even when you're by my side
I still need time to feel the company

I'm sure it tasted oh so sweet
But it was never good enough for me
I bit the tongue behind my teeth
It was never good enough for me

You said you always keep your word
Show me what you're after
I thought you'd promise me the world
Tell me what you're after
Go on and take it way too far
'Cause here we are waiting once again
You say you always keep your word
Show me what you're after
Just a little faster
Just a little faster

Hold your breath now
The bad blood's wearing thin
From the pain that settles in
When we learn too much too soon

Hold your breath now
The bad blood's wearing thin
From the pain that settles in
When we learn too much too soon
(Too soon)

You said you always keep your word
Show me what you're after
I thought you'd promise me the world
Tell me what you're after
Go on and take it way too far
'Cause here we are waiting once again
You said you always keep your word
Show me what you're after

It was never good enough for me
Show me what you're after
Just a little faster

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of There for Tomorrow's song A Little Faster convey a sense of frustration and disappointment with someone who has repeatedly let the singer down. The lines "You keep calling it a crash and burn, just waiting your turn" suggest that the person being addressed has a habit of making mistakes and failing, but doesn't seem to learn anything from those experiences. The singer seems to be tired of waiting for this person to change and make things right, and is skeptical about their ability to do so.


The lines "Are mine the only eyes that see, this cut-and-dry routine? Even when you're by my side, I still need time to feel the company" suggest that the singer feels misunderstood and alone, even when with this other person. They are questioning whether anyone else sees things the way they do, and are looking for a deeper, more meaningful connection with this person. However, it seems that the other person is not able to provide this, perhaps because they are too focused on their own desires and needs.


Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle to find genuine connection and trust in a world where people often disappoint us. The singer is expressing their frustration and disillusionment with someone who has repeatedly let them down, and is hoping that things can change, but is uncertain whether they will actually be able to.

In memory of the real Ben Tennyson that we followed from 2005 to 2014.
The one who inspired us, who showed us what a real hero is. Who passed on values to us. Who taught us that nothing is more important than our family and loved ones. Who taught us to help others first.
A legend that true fans will not forget

@duncanchillake8024

Not the one who teaches us nothing, who ruined our childhood

@PeterParker-px5pv

@@duncanchillake8024 Sorry about your ruined childhood, I and so many others have a wonderful one;)
