Back to Earth
(Рингтон) Steve Aoki feat. Fall Out Boy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think that I was meant to be next to you, to you
On this planet spinning
I think that I was meant to be next to you, to you
And you know I found the dust to be resilient
And we're the dirtiest of the dirt
Every time we fall to pieces
We build something new out of the hurt
To earth, to earth, to earth, to earth
We can never come back to earth, to earth, to earth
Are you living your life or just waiting to die?
The bright, the bright, the bright
The brightest things fade the fastest
All my life, the bright, the bright, the bright
The brightest things fade out the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
This is a crooked path
I think that I was meant to be next to you, to you
We can never come back (we can never come back)
I think that I was meant to be next to you, to you
And you know I found the dust to be resilient
And we're the dirtiest of the dirt
Every time we fall to pieces
We build something new out of the hurt
And we can never come back to earth
To earth, to earth, to earth, to earth
We can never come back to earth, to earth, to earth
Are you living your life or just waiting to die?
The bright, the bright, the bright
The brightest things fade the fastest
All my life, the bright, the bright, the bright
The brightest things fade out the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
(Fastest)
The brightest things fade the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
Whoa, whoa, whoa
The brightest things fade the fastest
The brightest things fade the fastest
The brightest things fade the fastest
The lyrics of "Back to Earth" by Steve Aoki feat. Fall Out Boy suggest that the two communicators are somehow connected and were meant to be together. They are on a planet that keeps moving, spinning, and never stops, and they cannot come back to Earth. The idea that they cannot come back to Earth can have many interpretations, such as the communicators being too invested in their relationship and cannot imagine it ending, or perhaps, they feel they have grown too much to return to who they once were before they met each other. Additionally, they both have found a way to withstand difficulties and be resilient, and they use that strength to build something new out of their problems.
They question whether they are living their lives or just waiting to die. The lyric "The brightest things fade the fastest" suggest that the most exciting parts of life often don't last long, but the memory of them lasts forever. It's possible that they want to live their lives to the fullest to create this everlasting memory. The song continues the theme of resilience, urging listeners to take the crooked path they were meant to take in life and use their resilience to build something new instead of dwelling on the negative.
Line by Line Meaning
It was just the beginning
This is just the start
I think that I was meant to be next to you, to you
I believe we were destined to be together
On this planet spinning
In this world we live in
And you know I found the dust to be resilient
I discovered that we are strong despite our flaws
And we're the dirtiest of the dirt
We may be imperfect, but we are still valuable
Every time we fall to pieces
Whenever we break down
We build something new out of the hurt
We use our struggles to create something better
And we can never come back to earth
We can never return to the way things used to be
To earth, to earth, to earth, to earth
Are you living your life or just waiting to die?
Are you truly living or just existing?
The bright, the bright, the bright
The brightest things fade the fastest
The most beautiful things often disappear quickly
All my life, the bright, the bright, the bright
Whoa, whoa, whoa
This is a crooked path
The road ahead may be difficult
We can never come back (we can never come back)
We can never return to the past
The brightest things fade the fastest (Fastest)
The most vibrant things disappear quickly
