Living In Danger
Ace of Base Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can do what you want, you can live in a dream
Get up, get in, get the rhythm, get down
You're living your life in peace and in harmony
You making your own decisions
That's how it's got to be for you and me
So many people are running around and 'round
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
Live for yourself it's a wonderful thing
You can do what you want
You can live in a dream
Get up, get in, get the rhythm,get down
Keep moving your feet
Don't go wasting your time
Everybody's moving, yeah they're getting in line
Get up, get in, get the rhythm, get down
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
People are the same today as they used to be
The same expectations
So high no one can reach that high
Not I nor you get satisfied today
We'll never get enough
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
People are the same today as they used to be
We'll never get enough
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Whoa
You'll be living in danger
I see li-es
In the eyes of a stranger
Look into the eyes of a stranger
Oh so much danger, oh so much danger
Look into the eyes of a stranger
Oh so much danger, oh so much danger
Look into the eyes of a stranger,
In the eyes of a stranger,
You'll be living, in danger
The lyrics to Ace of Base's song "Living in Danger" present a message of empowerment to individuals who have chosen to live life on their own terms. The opening lines, "Live for yourself, it's a wonderful thing / You can do what you want, you can live in a dream," encourages listeners to pursue their own desires without fear of judgment or societal pressure, creating a sense of liberation. The chorus warns of the danger that can come from blindly following the expectations of others, or from the lies told by strangers. The repetition of the chorus suggests that it is of paramount importance to be aware of and to refuse to accept the lies of others.
The second verse further emphasizes this idea, as the lyrics note that people today have the same high expectations that have existed for centuries, but that nobody can ever truly satisfy them. The song implies that it is better to live life for oneself, rather than constantly striving for an unattainable ideal.
The title of the song could also suggest that living in danger could be more exciting and fulfilling than living a safe and predictable life. Overall, Ace of Base's "Living in Danger" promotes the value of individualism and encourages listeners to live according to their own values and dreams, rather than conforming to societal norms or blindly accepting the deceit of others.
