Don't Look Back
Born Cages Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'
The lyrics of Born Cages's song "Don’t Look Back" is inspired by Bob Dylan's song "The Times They Are A-Changin'". In the beginning, the song calls out to people to come together and acknowledge that change is inevitable. It asks people to admit that the times are changing, and one must accept it. The line "And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone" symbolizes the fact that people will be affected by the changes, whether they accept it or not. The song goes on to caution people that if they do not adapt to the change, they will sink like a stone, and it will be too late for them to catch up. The line "If your time to you is worth savin', then you better start swimmin'" suggests that if people value their time and want to make the most of it, they must learn to adapt and keep up with the changing times.
Overall, the lyrics of "Don’t Look Back" try to motivate people to embrace change and not be afraid of it. It encourages people to take risks, take chances, and move forward without looking back. The song's message is that life is about moving on and being adaptable to change.
Line by Line Meaning
Come gather 'round people
Come together people, listen closely
Wherever you roam
It doesn't matter where you come from
And admit that the waters
Realize that the situation around you
Around you have grown
Has become larger and more complicated
And accept it that soon
Acknowledge that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
You will experience consequences beyond your control
If your time to you
If you feel your life is important
Is worth savin'
Is worth protecting
Then you better start swimmin'
You should start moving and taking action
Or you'll sink like a stone
Otherwise, you will fail to adapt and struggle
For the times they are a-changin'
The situation is constantly changing and evolving
