Apparat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
....
Fall and sway. Bring the bill.
I'll answer don't worry.
...
On my way with gifts I save.
Now, you're feeling bitterly
you've gotta head up, head up.
Stop thinking on me now.
I wanna find out how
and I don't need to hide
Say save us for last?
I'm feeling terrified.
The song Headup by Apparat is a captivating piece that touches on themes of overcoming obstacles and staying strong in difficult times. The opening lines, "Good you came to celebrate with us," suggest that the singer is addressing someone who has supported them in some way, possibly a friend or a loved one. The lyrics also mention bringing gifts, which could indicate that the celebration is for a special occasion such as a birthday or a wedding.
However, as the song progresses, the tone becomes increasingly somber. The line "Fall and sway. Bring the bill. I'll answer don't worry," seems to reference the idea of taking responsibility and facing the consequences of one's actions, even in difficult times. The following lines, "Now, you're feeling bitterly no one will put you down you've gotta head up, head up. Stop thinking on me now," suggest that the person the singer is addressing may be going through a tough time and struggling to stay positive.
The overall message of the song seems to be one of resilience and inner strength. The chorus repeats the phrase "head up" several times, urging the listener to stay strong and focused, even when things are difficult. Despite the melancholy tone of the song, there is an undercurrent of hope and determination that makes it a powerful and uplifting piece.
