Jack
C-Weed Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The hands come from the ground
Don't fear life
We came and saw
This has no meaning
I touch the sky
As it's burning
Cause your glass is half way full
Can you please go without me
I swear that everything's alright
(It's not my money he owes)
And you say
The way we go
It's just as terrible
I can't turn around
Yeah!
Beware, before I allow them running away
Can you run
O whoa o, o whoa o, o wha-ah-oh-o-ah-o
Can't stop while the rhythm is going
Just say the first words that come along to your head
One touch and it's already over
I'm not ready, I'm barley sober
I just can't forget you
I'd do anything to get you
I don't want to get you
I just want to forget you
We can't go back
(And we can't go back)
Take a deep breath
And go for her
And two weeks have past
(I've haven't seen you since)
In spreaded letters
Just forget her
One thing remains
Save the cheerleader
Save the world!
The lyrics to C-Weed Band's song "Jack" are complex and somewhat difficult to interpret. The first couple of lines, "The hands come from the ground, don't fear life" suggest a certain sense of urgency and a call to action. This is further emphasized in the next line, "We came and saw, this has no meaning" which could be interpreted as a nihilistic world view or perhaps a rejection of societal norms.
The following lines, "I touch the sky, as it's burning" are particularly intriguing. It could be interpreted as a metaphor for reaching for the unattainable or striving for something that's ultimately destructive or unsustainable. This idea is further reinforced in the next verse, "This bottles half way empty, cause your glass is half way full, can you please go without me, I swear that everything's alright".
This section is more reflective and speaks to the idea that sometimes we need to make difficult decisions or let go of things in order to move on. The final line, "It's not my money he owes" provides a glimpse into the complexity or perhaps even chaos that's going on in the background. The lyrics take on a more positive note towards the end, encouraging listeners to take action and make a difference.
