Move
Blue Sushi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There are all these words dancing in my lungs
I just want to breathe
But this room is full of smoke and I can't see
There are hands all over the place
Tied shoes together, fall flat on my face
This is getting a little too much
And it's just not to my taste
I'll stick to the floor if I don't
Move myself right now
No, no, no
Look at me
Tell me what you see
I think I've started to melt
And I just can't recall
Where my hands are meant to be
I won't stay down
I'll stick to the floor if I don't
Move myself right now
No, no, no
*Instrumental*
I won't stay down
I'll stick to the floor if I don't
Move myself right now
No
I won't stay down}
I'll stick to the floor if I don't
Move myself right now
No, no, no
The lyrics of Blue Sushi's song "Move" describes a feeling of being trapped and lost in a situation where the room is full of smoke and the singer cannot see. The singer feels overwhelmed since there are hands all over the place, tied shoes together, and the whole situation seems to be too much for them. The singer wants to stay strong and not let the situation get the best of them, saying they'll stick to the floor if they don't make a move right now. They are asking the listener to look at them and tell them what they see, as they feel like they've started to melt and can't even remember where their hands are meant to be.
The message behind the song is about perseverance and taking action when one is feeling stuck. It's about not giving up even when things get overwhelming and taking control of your life in order to move forward. The lyrics speak to the human experience of feeling lost and struggling with self-doubt, but ultimately finding the strength to move forward despite it all.
