GO
ADAMS Lyrics

Pink as a rose the sun is fading
The sun is setting, and the sky is pink, which represents a sign of ending and transition.

Can you feel the darkness that surrounds the house
The atmosphere around the house is gloomy and foreboding, an ominous sign that something is not right.

Plain as the truth my breath is bated
The truth is crystal clear, and the singer is holding their breath in anticipation of something bad happening.

It pinches like a trap shut around the mouse
The situation is like a trap closing in on the artist, suffocating them and giving them a sense of claustrophobia.

But down the road 'cause we fell in
The artist and an unknown individual fell into something risky and dangerous, and now they must face the consequences.

Hanging round the wish-it-well
The singer and the unknown individual are now hoping for the best outcome in this dangerous situation.

It's a slippery slope
The situation is precarious and can fall apart at any moment, like standing on a slope that can easily cause one to slip and fall.

And I let go, let go, let go, let go
The artist is giving up control of the situation, realizing that they cannot handle it and must let things happen naturally.

Driving at night beside the river
The artist is traveling down a dark path, paralleled by an unknown river that represents the unknown and uncertainty of the path they have chosen.

Looking at as it's going nowhere
The artist is feeling lost and uncertain, someone who is traveling down a path that leads them nowhere and leaves them feeling empty.

Dark as a room with the light shut out
The atmosphere is eerie, and the room is pitch black, causing the singer to fumble around blindly, wondering which direction to take.

I'm feeling round the walls for another way out
The artist is searching for a way to escape this dark, dangerous situation, trying to find an alternative path to take.

Cross your fingers behind your back
The singer is asking someone to wish them luck, even though they may not believe it themselves, a sign of desperation and hopelessness.

And lie
The singer is asking for someone to lie to them, to tell them everything is okay, even when it's not, a sign of someone in denial.

Tell me it's okay if you'll fix everything
The singer is asking if someone else can make the situation better, hoping that someone else can take on the responsibility of fixing everything.

'Cause I let go
The artist is admitting that they gave up control of the situation, and now they must accept the consequences of their actions.

Shattering the light on the oceanside
The light from the sunset is shattered as it meets the ocean, representing chaos and destruction at the end of the day.

Standing alone, I am not waiting
The singer is standing alone, separated from the unknown individual who they fell in with, and are no longer waiting for them to save them.

Maybe I'm asleep, my heart is paralyzed
The singer is questioning whether they are in a dream and can't wake up, or whether reality has left them paralyzed, unable to act on their own.

And I let go, let go, let go, let go again
The artist is reiterating that they have given up control of the situation, accepting that the consequences will inevitably play out as they may.
