Extinction
Codename B.L.U. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I strap my laces tight this time
Migraines creep up from last night
Migraines creep up from last night
Where will they be
When the sun comes round
Where will they all be
When the moon comes crashin down
Abandoned I stare at street signs
Migraines creep up from last night
Migraines creep up from last night
Where will they be
When the sun comes round
Where will they all be
When the moon comes crashin down
A bed of stones calls my name
The cemetery gates seem so plain
A bed of stones calls my name
The cemetery gates seem so plain
The lyrics of Codename B.L.U.'s song "Extinction" convey a sense of struggle and isolation. The opening lines, "When the morning comes I'll try, I strap my laces tight this time," suggest a determination to face challenges head-on and take control. However, the mention of migraines creeping up from the previous night indicates the toll that these struggles are taking on the singer's mental well-being.
The repeated question, "Where will they be, when the sun comes round? Where will they all be when the moon comes crashing down?" could be interpreted as questioning the whereabouts or actions of others in times of hardship. It reflects a feeling of being abandoned or left alone during difficult times.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses a feeling of being abandoned or overlooked: "Leave me, by night I'll be fine, abandoned I stare at street signs." The migraines mentioned earlier intensify, representing the emotional and physical pain experienced by the singer.
The mention of a "bed of stones" calling their name and the plainness of the cemetery gates evokes a sense of longing for respite or escape from their struggles. It suggests a desire for peace and freedom, symbolized by the serenity of the cemetery.
Overall, "Extinction" captures a sense of internal turmoil, loneliness, and the longing for solace in the face of adversity.
