Break Even Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So many times before / I've wished, I've watched, I've waited / So many times before / I've wished, I've watched, I've wasted / So much success in their lives / And ill I see in myself / Is someone that I always never wanted to be / Regret from the mistakes I made / The one I never learned from / Is why I'm here today / The worst mistake that I ever made
So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe just one more night / So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe again another night / I'm hoping this night never ends / I'm hoping for a change in who I am
And my time is slowly slipping / AWAY FROM ME / And my time is slow slipping / AWAY FROM ME now / Now what's left do / When so many people / Pass me by in my life / And I'm still standing / On a starting line / To afraid to start a race / That will last me all my life
So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe just one more night / So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe again another night / I'm hoping this night never ends / I'm hoping in a change in who I am
And I know I have to let go / And just forget about all the regrets / The only I will / Move on with my life / Like sand running through my hands / I've learnt to let it all go / LET IT GO / I've learnt to let it all go / Farewell failure / I'm never looking back now / I start a new life today / I left the failure in yesterday
The lyrics of "Another Night" by Break Even captures the feeling of hopelessness, despair, and regret. The opening lines "Is this the end of everything? / I'm not knowing where I'm going / or even if I'm on the right track" epitomize the frustration one feels when they are unsure about their purpose in life. It feels like they are just going through the motions without a sense of direction. The imagery of "A child in adult shoes without any luck" emphasizes the feeling of being stuck and stagnant.
The verse then goes on to talk about missed opportunities, mistakes, and self-doubt. The lines "So much success in their lives / And ill I see in myself / Is someone that I always never wanted to be" convey the feeling of being envious of others and questioning one's own worth. The lyrics "Three words all mistakes" are cryptic but can be interpreted to mean that they have made the same mistakes repeatedly in their life.
The chorus is a plea for temporary relief from their thoughts. The lines "So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe just one more night / So sing a song a lullaby to fall asleep safe again another night / I'm hoping this night never ends / I'm hoping for a change in who I am" express a yearning for a break from their worries and their sincere hope that they will wake up refreshed and renewed.
Overall, "Another Night" by Break Even is a powerful and relatable song that captures the frustration and confusion that comes with being unsure about your life's direction.
