Dive
Business Class Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It Looks deep
Calm and blue
You see yourself
While you see through

Nowhere clouds
Just the flocking birds
You stop to watch
While they disappear

Now step up and go to the rail
Don't hold your head down
Nothing will fail

Close your eyes and take a last breath
And dive to lay down your wreath
Just break through this silent place
Wipe your slate clean
And leave your routine
Make a deal for a radical change

You're alive
You're in need
Just take your time
To find your feet

Encircled by
Colours and glance
One step in front
Come take your chance

Now step up and go to the rail
Don't hold your head down
Nothing will fail

Close your eyes and take a last breath
And dive to lay down your wreath
Just break through this silent place
Wipe your slate clean
And leave your routine
Make a deal for a radical change

(Don't hold your head down)

Close your eyes and take a last breath
And dive to lay down your wreath
Just break through this silent place
Wipe your slate clean
And leave your routine
Make a deal for a radical change

A radical change
Radical change

Wipe your slate clean




And leave your routine
Make a deal for a radical change
