Someday
Chicago Mass Choir Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you look around you now
And tell me what you see
Faces full of hate and fear
Faces full of me

Do you feel the rumblings?
As your head comes crumbling down
Do you know what I mean

Run, you better run you know
The end is getting near
Feel the wind of something hard
Come whistling past your ear

As they try to get you
Where it will upset you down
Now you know what I mean

Someday you will see how long
We've waited for the time
To show you how we've died
To get together with you all

Twist and turn your head around
Till everything's unclear
Twist and turn your arm around
Until it is not there

And they'd love to burn you
Or at least to turn you around
Now you know what I mean

Can you look around you now
And tell us what's to be
Can you look inside yourself
And tell us what you see

As you feel the rumblings
As your head comes crumbling down
And you know what I mean

Someday you will see how long
We've waited for the time
To show you how we've died
To get together with you all

Line by Line Meaning

Would you look around you now
Are you observing your surroundings at present?


And tell me what you see
Can you communicate what you notice?


Faces full of hate and fear
Countenances replete with animosity and dread


Faces full of me
Countenances replete with self-importance


Do you feel the rumblings?
Are you sensing the tremors?


As your head comes crumbling down
As your reasoning deteriorates


Do you know what I mean
Do you comprehend my point of view?


Run, you better run you know
You should start running as quickly as possible


The end is getting near
Doomsday is fast approaching


Feel the wind of something hard
Perceive the strong gusts of trouble heading your way


Come whistling past your ear
Swooshing noise of adverse events ringing in your ear


As they try to get you
As the opposing force is making attempts to get to you


Where it will upset you down
They will take you down and make you upset


Now you know what I mean
You are now made aware of what I am trying to tell you


Someday you will see how long
At some point in time, it will dawn on you how arduous this has been


We've waited for the time
We've been waiting for this moment to arrive


To show you how we've died
To prove to you the sacrifices we have made in this endeavor


To get together with you all
To unite and make a stand together


Twist and turn your head around
To look at things from different angles


Till everything's unclear
Until everything becomes hazy and unclear


Twist and turn your arm around
To free oneself from the clutches of the opposition


Until it is not there
Until you have managed to break free


And they'd love to burn you
They would relish burning you alive


Or at least to turn you around
Or simply to persuade you to join their side


Can you look around you now
Are you able to take a look at your surroundings at the moment?


And tell us what's to be
Can you inform us what the future holds?


Can you look inside yourself
Can you introspect and assess your state of mind?


And tell us what you see
And tell us what you have discovered about yourself?


As you feel the rumblings
As you sense the quakes and tremors occurring


As your head comes crumbling down
As your sound reasoning deteriorates


And you know what I mean
And you can fathom my point of view


Someday you will see how long
One day, you will appreciate the amount of time this has taken


We've waited for the time
We have been eagerly awaiting for this moment


To show you how we've died
To exhibit the profound sacrifices we have made


To get together with you all
To unify and stand together for what is right
