They will be missed.
Rebirth
Another Direction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Faking smiles and forcing speech
It is all we have, without it we are nothing
Never let on that you're scared to die alone
We all feel so alone, so afraid
Of being no-one, being nothing
These scars are set in their own ways, they speak the words I'd never say
They'll be no fears, no crying eyes, they'll be no regrets and no goodbyes
How I wish that I could make the same mistakes again
Tying nooses around your neck
You walk in the face of danger
Knowing that with every step you draw closer to your last
Hoping that it will put tighter and strangle the light out of your world
Start all over
Same mistakes again
In Another Direction's song "Rebirth," the lyrics explore the idea of living a life of emptiness, fear, and loneliness. The opening lines, "Crawling through the day, trembling in anonymity, Faking smiles and forcing speech," describe a person masking their true feelings and putting on a façade to hide their fear of being alone. The lyric, "It is all we have, without it we are nothing," suggests that without this charade, they would be left with nothing.
The chorus, "How I wish that I was born again... They'll be no fears, no crying eyes, they'll be no regrets and no goodbyes... How I wish that I could make the same mistakes again," expresses the desire to start over, to erase the past mistakes, and the hope that in a new life, there would be no pain, no fear, and no sadness.
The final verse, "Tying nooses around your neck, You walk in the face of danger, Knowing that with every step you draw closer to your last, Hoping that it will put tighter and strangle the light out of your world," speaks of someone who has given up, someone who is so tired of living a life of emptiness that they are willing to end it all.
Overall, "Rebirth" is a powerful song that delves into themes that many people can relate to. The lyrics capture the fear, loneliness, and emptiness that many individuals experience in their lives, while the chorus expresses the desire for a new beginning free from pain and regret.

The arranged version is my personal favourite fighting game song. Probably one of the best songs in any video game!
