Minor Swing
Belleruche Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lessons to be learnt but who's going to teach
Who's writing the rules, well I decree
A day of tragedy when love is lost
When a friend, when a friend is pissed off

Misunderstandings are so unfair
Psychoanalyse me please oh my friend
Let's begin, let confusion unravel around me

And, and if I give the pieces together
The way they make sense to me I'll do my best
But I can use only what I've seen from where I've been
And the lives that have lived before me
Who's going to look, who's going to cheek
No one can really say 'cause they're all dead
But we can try and only try to live with integrity

So come and see if from
Come and see if from
Come and see it from here

So come and see if from
Come and see if from
Come and see it from here and

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek
Script you write and forces you fight

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek

Oh no there's will and there's fate
Or random explosions everyday
Or is the world an orchestrated play
Or a clock, tick-tock, a clock work game
Us being the cogs and the product is time
Questions to evolve with the answers to find
Like what the hell, what the hell are we doing here anyhow

Yeah a gift it is to have everything
To fill our lines with happiness and what we desire
But only if you want it, only if you need it
Only if you brave it, only if you seek it
So be kind 'cause there's a piece of me in you
I'll be kind 'cause there's a piece of you in me
A piece of everyone somewhere elsewhere lesser and greater

So come and see if from
Come and see if from
Come and see it from here

So come and see if from
Come and see if from
Come and see it from here and

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek
Script you write and forces you fight

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek
Oh let's begin tonight

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek
Script you write and forces you fight

Whatever you seek
Which book you may read
Which planet you seek

Oh no there's will and there's fate
Or random explosions everyday
Or is the world an orchestrated play
Or a clock, tick-tock, a clock work game
Us being the cogs and the product is time
Questions to evolve with the answers to find




Like what the hell, what the hell are we doing here anyhow
What are we doing here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Belleruche's song, Minor Swing, speak to the complexities of life and exploring the unanswerable questions that arise. The opening lines of the song lament the lack of guidance in life, with references to the absence of a teacher and the need for someone to write the rules. The song then moves on to focus on the themes of misunderstanding and confusion, highlighting the struggle to gain clarity and insight into one's own life and relationships.


The chorus of the song urges the listener to seek out their desires and goals, but with the caveat that this is only worthwhile if they truly want and need them. Echoing the opening sentiments, the song touches again on the idea of fate and whether or not life is predetermined or orchestrated.


Overall, the lyrics suggest that despite our inability to answer all of life's questions, it is still worth taking the time to explore and seek out our own understanding.
