Displaced
Azure Ray Lyrics

It's just a simple line
The singer is haunted by a phrase that feels crucial yet elusive.

I can still hear it all of the time
This line echoes in the singer's head relentlessly, impossible to ignore or forget.

If I can just hold on tonight
The singer clings to the hope that if they can persist through the darkness, things will eventually get better.

I know that nothing
The artist acknowledges the harsh truth that all things eventually come to an end.

Nothing survives
The inevitability of change and loss is a central theme of the song.

I think I'm turned around
The singer is disoriented and uncertain of their footing, both literally and metaphorically.

I'm looking up
Even in moments of confusion and doubt, the singer tries to maintain a positive outlook and keep their chin up.

Not looking down
The artist resists the temptation to dwell on negative thoughts and feelings.

And when I'm standing still
At times the artist feels like they're not making any progress, or even going backwards.

Watching you run
The artist observes as someone else seemingly moves forward with ease and success.

Watching you fall
But even those who seem to be succeeding are not immune to failure and disappointment.

Fall into me
The artist offers a sense of security and support for those who stumble along the way.

Am I making something worthwhile out of this place
The singer questions whether there is any value or meaning to be found in their current situation.

Am I making something worthwhile out of this chase
The singer wonders if their pursuits and ambitions are ultimately worthwhile or fulfilling.

I am displaced
The singer feels out of sorts and disconnected from their surroundings.

And she's my friend of all friends
The artist has a close, dependable relationship with someone who is always there for them.

She's still here when everyone's gone
This friend is a constant source of comfort and support, even when others have moved on or let the artist down.

She doesn't have to say a thing
Their connection is so strong that words are not always necessary to express understanding and empathy.

We'll just keep laughing all night long
Humor and joy are important facets of this enduring relationship.

No one survives
The final line of the song is a bleak reminder that everything is ultimately temporary and fleeting.
