Division Street
Banner Pilot Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I've had better days then they're hard to remember,
I was stuck in a bender before we met, there wasn't anything.
But I've been on a high since the moment I saw you,
And there's nothing I won't do for you now because you're everything.

And as we're walking back through these north east streets and we pass the neon signs,
I see the stars explode and I start to float when you put your hand in mine.

And I won't let go,
This sky can tumble down.
Earthquake can cut the ground,
It won't shake us, hold on tight.
Blue eyes and moon glow,
This world can disappear.
It's just you and me my dear,
No distractions, no red lights.

I know I have my days when I get real dramatic.
I get lost in the static and when you talk I don't hear anything.
And I know that there'll be times when we're missing the West Coast
And remembering old ghosts we left behind before Division Street.

And as we're walking back through these north east streets and we pass the neon signs,
I see the stars explode and I start to float when you put your hand in mine.

And I won't let go,
This sky can tumble down.
Earthquake can cut the ground,
It won't shake us, hold on tight.
Blue eyes and moon glow,
This world can disappear.
It's just you and me my dear,
No distractions, no red lights.

And when the morning sun is missing, my heart beats pacific [x6]

Overall Meaning

The opening lyrics of Banner Pilot's song Division Street expresses the sentiment that the singer's life was not as great before meeting their significant other. The line "If I've had better days, then they're hard to remember" conveys that although it may not be perfect now, it's better than what they had before. The singer mentions being "stuck in a bender" before meeting their partner, which adds to the idea that their life was at its lowest point. It's as if their life was stuck, and nothing they did made any difference. But then, the moment they saw their partner, their life changed, and the singer's been on a "high" ever since. The verses also expose the vulnerability of the singer. They clarify that they would do anything for their partner.

The chorus suggests that nothing can disturb the singer's relationship. The singer is saying that they won't let go of their significant other, regardless of what happens in the world, including an earthquake, no matter how dire the situation. The lyrics imply that their love is strong enough to transcend any obstacle that comes their way. Additionally, the references to the environment, such as "blue eyes and moon glow" and "morning sun," hints that the singer and their significant other are enjoying their time together far from the city lights, in a romantic location where the stars shine brightly, and the surroundings are serene.

Line by Line Meaning

If I've had better days then they're hard to remember,
I can't recall a time when I felt better than I do now with you in my life.

I was stuck in a bender before we met, there wasn't anything.
I was in a rut before I met you and my life had no purpose or meaning.

But I've been on a high since the moment I saw you,
Ever since I met you, my life has been filled with happiness and excitement.

And there's nothing I won't do for you now because you're everything.
You mean everything to me and I would do anything to make you happy.

And as we're walking back through these north east streets and we pass the neon signs,
As we walk through these streets, everything else fades away and there's only us.

I see the stars explode and I start to float when you put your hand in mine.
I feel a sense of euphoria when we hold hands and it's like the world around us disappears.

And when the morning sun is missing, my heart beats pacific [x6]
When I'm away from you or when things aren't going well, it feels like a huge part of me is missing.

I won't let go, this sky can tumble down.
No matter what happens, I'll never let go of you and our love will be strong enough to withstand anything.

Earthquake can cut the ground, it won't shake us, hold on tight.
Even if there are difficult times or obstacles, we'll hold on tight to each other and come out stronger in the end.

Blue eyes and moon glow, this world can disappear.
When I look into your eyes or see the moon, everything else fades away and it's just us in our own little world.

It's just you and me my dear, no distractions, no red lights.
Our love is so strong that nothing can distract us or get in our way.

I know I have my days when I get real dramatic.
Sometimes I can be overly emotional or dramatic, but you still love me for who I am.

I get lost in the static and when you talk I don't hear anything.
There are times when I get distracted by life and I need you to ground me and bring me back to reality.

And I know that there'll be times when we're missing the West Coast.
There may be times when we feel homesick or long for something else, but we still have each other.

And remembering old ghosts we left behind before Division Street.
We've both had past relationships or experiences that still haunt us, but now we have each other to move forward with.

If I’ve had better days then they’re hard to remember,
I was stuck in a bender before we met, there wasn’t anything.
But I’ve been on a high since the moment I saw you,
And there’s nothing I won’t do for you now because you’re everything.

And as we’re walking back through these north east streets and we pass the neon signs,
I see the stars explode and I start to float when you put your hand in mine.

And I won’t let go,
This sky can tumble down.
Earthquake can cut the ground,
It won’t shake us, hold on tight.
Blue eyes and moon glow,
This world can disappear.
It’s just you and me my dear,
No distractions, no red lights.

I know I have my days when I get real dramatic.
I get lost in the static and when you talk I don’t hear anything.
And I know that there’ll be times when we’re missing the West Coast
And remembering old ghosts we left behind before Division Street.

And as we’re walking back through these north east streets and we pass the neon signs,
I see the stars explode and I start to float when you put your hand in mine.

And I won’t let go,
This sky can tumble down.
Earthquake can cut the ground,
It won’t shake us, hold on tight.
Blue eyes and moon glow,
This world can disappear.
It’s just you and me my dear,
No distractions, no red lights.

And when the morning sun is missing, my heart beats pacific [x6]
