Rush
Arty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On and on like a Rush song, like a long one
You're the miss in the partnership, yeah the right one
There will come a day when Ill bury you
I will go the same way, together,
Whatever there awaits us I'm gonna get through

And the closest thing to Jesus is suffering
And the closest thing between us is air
Don't say a word, that's not enough

Makes me sick when I think of it in the wrong way
Shitting bricks when I enter it in my bad brains
Like a wound up toy I'm kicking and a screaming
Emo boy, naive and semi-functioning
Hey this is a love song, hands up if you feel it.

And the closest thing to Jesus is suffering
And the closest thing between us is air
Don't say a word, that's not enough

And the closest thing to Jesus is suffering
And the closest thing between us is air




And the moment that's between us is everything
Don't say a word, that's not enough

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Arty's song Rush are rich with metaphor and emotion. The first verse likens the feeling of being caught up in a rush of emotions to the intensity of a Rush song, with the singer feeling swept up by the right partner in a deep and meaningful way. This feeling of passion is tempered by a reminder of the inevitability of mortality, with the promise that the two will face whatever comes next together. The chorus repeats the idea that suffering is the closest thing to experiencing the divine, while the space between two people is both intimate and empty at the same time.


The second verse examines the flip side of this intense love, with the singer feeling overwhelmed and scared in equal measure. The metaphor of a "wound up toy" suggests that these intense emotions are beyond his control, with a fear of being too "emo boy, naive and semi-functioning" to handle them properly. Yet despite these fears, the chorus returns to the idea that the space between the two lovers is everything, and that they don't need to say any words to feel this deep sense of connection.


Overall, the lyrics to Rush are a powerful exploration of the extremes of romantic love, the tension between the desire to connect and the fear of vulnerability, and the idea that the most meaningful experiences in life often involve both suffering and transcendence.
