Until the End
Battery Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see faces
I see the faces looking down on me,
But they can stare and i don't really care,
Because they'll never understand what we're made of.

Because today is the day when we forget all regrets
And focus on what really matters.
And i hope for you this is more then a trend,
Because you can count on me UNTIL THE END

The fucking kids
The kinds are at it again
To your parents it's"just a phase"
But we're with you so don't be afraid.

(Ref.)

But can i count on you?
Are you with me?




Are you with me UNTIL THE END?
Can i count on you UNTIL THE END?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Battery's song Until the End convey a sense of solidarity and defiance in the face of the judgmental stares and dismissive attitudes of others. The singer sees faces looking down on him, but he doesn't care because he knows they'll never understand what he and his fellow non-conformists are made of. Instead, they choose to focus on what really matters and forget all regrets, urging others to do the same. They hope that this sense of unity and support is more than just a passing trend, and that people will stick by each other until the end.


The chorus of the song asks a pointed question: "But can I count on you?" It's a challenge to the listener, a call to action to prove that they are with the singer and his crew until the end. They ask for assurance that others are with them, that they have their backs, that they won't let them down. It's a reminder that the fight for individuality and self-expression can be a long and difficult one, and that support from those around us is crucial to staying strong.


Overall, the lyrics of Until the End offer a message of hope and encouragement to anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, anyone who has ever been judged or dismissed for being different. They remind us that we are not alone in our struggle, and that if we stick together, we can overcome any obstacle.
