Blue Foundation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can reach so far above my head with my height.
And I feel fit for fight,
With my pace I break out the light,
And the cool wind strengthens me to walk on by.
But, so far beyond my pace,
I watch you run over and make me feel foreign inside.
I want seven undone days.
A revolt of my force inside.
Thoughtful, early autumn-days, a chestnut in my palm
As I open my lover's eyes to see if they still shine.
Though I feel fit for fight,
And my pace can break out the light,
I need more to make me feel all right.
The song "Hollywood" by Blue Foundation starts with a reflection on the singer's past, when everything was calm and misty. The singer feels powerful, as they can reach above their head with their height and move with a strong pace that breaks out the light. However, this confidence is shattered when they see someone else running beyond their pace, making them feel foreign inside. This leads to a desire to break away, with a revolt of their force inside.
In the next verse, the singer reflects on thoughtful, early autumn days, holding a chestnut in their palm. They try to open their lover's eyes to see if they still shine. Despite feeling fit for fight and being able to break out the light with their pace, they still feel like they need more to feel alright. The song ends with a plea for seven undone days, perhaps a desire to go back in time and change something in the past.
Overall, the song seems to be about a desire to break free from the constraints of the present and go back to a time when things were simpler and more peaceful. The power and pace the singer feels represents their inner strength, but it is not enough to overcome the challenges they face. They need something more, some kind of catalyst to help them feel alright again.
Line by Line Meaning
Earliest days, in calm and misty dawn
The beginning of my journey, during peaceful and foggy mornings
I can reach so far above my head with my height.
I have confidence in myself and my abilities
And I feel fit for fight,
I am ready to face any challenge
With my pace I break out the light,
My energy and momentum allow me to overcome obstacles
And the cool wind strengthens me to walk on by.
The environment around me supports and motivates me to keep moving forward
But, so far beyond my pace,
Others are moving faster than me
I watch you run over and make me feel foreign inside.
I feel out of place and insecure when I see others succeeding
And don't ever call again
I am putting distance between myself and someone who has hurt me
I want seven undone days.
I wish I could go back in time and change the past
A revolt of my force inside.
I am struggling internally with my emotions and desires
Thoughtful, early autumn-days, a chestnut in my palm
Reminiscing about a peaceful and introspective time with a natural object in my hand
As I open my lover's eyes to see if they still shine.
Checking to see if my partner is still happy and fulfilled in our relationship
Though I feel fit for fight,
Despite my confidence, I still have doubts and insecurities
And my pace can break out the light,
My energy and drive can lead me to success
I need more to make me feel all right.
I require additional support or validation to feel content and satisfied
