Boy Jumps Ship Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No mercy, 'cause that's the way it goes
With your head in your hands
You're skin, you're skin and bones
It's pulling you down into the ground
So we could get lost, and not be found
We could run out into the night
There's nothing you can do to save your life
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
No warning, it came without a sound
Are you testing this wall around to find a way out?
Just say, just say
No mercy, the only way we know
And if you ain't stomping your feet to the beat
Now find your way home
Just say, just say
It's pulling you down into the ground
So we could get lost, and not be found
We could burn out into the night
There's nothing you can do to save your life
So just say "are we the only ones to blame?"
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
It's pulling you down into the ground
So we could get lost, and not be found
We could burn out into the night
There's nothing you can do to save your life
So just say "are we the only ones to blame?"
Are we the only ones to blame?
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
The song "Lost & Found" by Boy Jumps Ship has a sort of rebellious and energetic vibe to it. The lyrics talk about feeling trapped and overwhelmed, but also about having the desire to break free and escape the monotony. The lines "No mercy, 'cause that's the way it goes" and "No warning, it came without a sound" especially emphasize this feeling of being stuck in a situation that is out of one's control.
The chorus of the song ("It's pulling you down into the ground / So we could get lost, and not be found") can be interpreted as a call to let go of the things that are holding us back and to find new meaning in life. The lines "There's nothing you can do to save your life / So just say 'are we the only ones to blame?'" suggest that the only way to move forward is to accept responsibility for our actions and to not fear the consequences.
Overall, "Lost & Found" is a song about taking risks, facing the unknown, and not being afraid to fail. It's about the struggle to find purpose and meaning in life, and the willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve it.
