Can't Shut Up
Anthem Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was breathing
And I kept going and going without a reason
I was living
Just to be living
Until he really gave me life
I am not alone
And I know I am not the only one who found a way home
It's not a secret don't have to keep it deep inside
Hey, hey, are you there?
(We've been looking for ya)
Hey, hey, are you there?
(We've been searching for ya)
Hey, Hey, are you there?
(If your love is your song, pass it on)
This is why we get up and sing
(We can't shut up!)
We got everything that we need
(We can't shut up!)
Love is coming now, we are free
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
We got a problem
But I ain't calling Houston
You and I can solve it
We gotta break the silence
We've been quiet for too long
We gotta wake up, wake up
Hey, hey, are you there?
(We've been looking for ya)
Hey, hey, are you there?
(We've been searching for ya)
Hey, hey, are you there?
(Let the lost and found let it out)
This is why we get up and sing
(We can't shut up!)
We got everything that we need
(We can't shut up!)
Love is coming now, we are free
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
This is why we get up and sing
(We can't shut up!)
He's everything that we need
(We can't shut up!)
Love is coming now, we are free
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
Out of the darkness and into the light
When blind men can see it's a beautiful sight
Out of the darkness and into the light
When blind men can see it's a beautiful sight
This is why we get up and sing
(We can't shut up!)
We got everything that we need
(We can't shut up!)
Love is coming now, we are free
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
This is why we get up and sing
(We can't shut up!)
He's everything that we need
(We can't shut up!)
Love is coming now, we are free
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up!
We can't shut up about it
We can't shut up!
Out of the darkness and into the light
When blind men can see it's a beautiful sight
Out of the darkness and into the light
When blind men can see it's a beautiful sight

I had a heartbeat
I was simply living, alive without a purpose
I was breathing
I kept existing without any motivation
And I kept going and going without a reason
I was stuck in an endless routine without a cause to strive for
I was living
I was merely existing
Just to be living
Without any real purpose or drive
Until he really gave me life
Until he introduced me to a meaningful path
This much I know
I am certain about what I have learned

I am not the only one who has found true meaning
