Skyfall
Adele ( Bo2Music ) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again
For this is the end
I’ve drowned and dreamt this moment
So overdue I owe them
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
At skyfall
Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
Where worlds collide and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you’ll never have my heart
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I’d never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we’ll stand
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall
The song "Skyfall" by Adele (Bo2Music) was the title track for the James Bond film of the same name. The song mainly focuses on the theme of loyalty and ultimately giving everything up to protect that loyalty. The lyrics "This is the end, hold your breath and count to ten" set the tone for a final moment of death or surrender. The following line "feel the earth move and then, hear my heart burst again" suggests a rush of adrenaline and a sense of accepting fate. The next lines, "I’ve drowned and dreamt this moment, so overdue I owe them, swept away, I’m stolen" portray feelings of both acceptance and betrayal as the singer fights against the reality of their fate.
The chorus with "Let the sky fall, when it crumbles, we will stand tall, face it all together" highlights the theme of unity and standing strong in the face of adversity, even when everything else falls apart. The bridge "Where you go I go, what you see I see, I know I’d never be me, without the security of your loving arms, keeping me from harm, put your hand in my hand, and we’ll stand" emphasizes the importance of support and loyalty during difficult times.
