Arcadia
Boys Noize Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For life to come
I could go further
And no one's surprised
Your plans collapse, run off or fall apart
What's the point of waiting
For life to come
And no one's surprised
Your plans collapse, run off or fall apart
The lyrics of Boys Noize's song Arcadia convey a sense of disconnection and disillusionment with the world around us. The opening lines, "What's the point of waiting for life to come?" suggest a feeling of restlessness and impatience, as if the singer is tired of waiting for something to happen or for their life to change. This sentiment is reinforced by the repeated refrain, "I could go further", which implies a desire to push past the limitations of their current circumstances.
As the verse continues, the lyrics take on a darker tone, with the line "Your plans collapse, run off or fall apart" seeming to reflect a sense of hopelessness in the face of life's constant disappointments. Despite this, there is still a sense of determination and defiance in the song, as if the singer is refusing to give up or give in to despair.
Overall, the lyrics of Arcadia suggest a complex mixture of emotions - frustration, disillusionment, and a desire for change - that will likely resonate with anyone who has ever felt a sense of disconnection from the world around them.
Line by Line Meaning
What's the point of waiting
Why wait for something to happen?
For life to come
For opportunities to arise on their own.
I could go further
I can take risks and push myself beyond my comfort zone.
And no one's surprised
Others expect me to take risks and explore new territory.
Your plans collapse, run off or fall apart
Your carefully laid plans may fail, stray off course, or completely crumble - but that's okay because it's part of the process.
