The energy story
College Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ahh-ah
[Repeat]
At the start of the morning
Before the sunrise was yawning
The dream was now fading
Like there she goes
She never came back
She never came back, yeah
She never came back
She never came back, yeah
Segments came in a day dream
Wondering if it's what it seems
What if there's no other one out there
No other feelings untrue
Lift up your heavy curtain from those hazy eyes
One soul you're losing control like there she goes
She never came back
She never came back, yeah
She never came back
She never came back, yeah
So, when will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
When will you come back again
Oh oh oh oh oh...
The lyrics to College's song The energy story seem to explore feelings of loss and confusion. The first verse sets the scene at the start of the morning, with the dream fading away like someone who has left and not returned. The repetition of "She never came back" highlights the sense of longing and disappointment.
The second verse introduces a daydream, questioning whether the feelings experienced are real or imagined. The line "lift up your heavy curtain from those hazy eyes" suggests that the person is struggling with clarity and perspective. The chorus once again repeats the phrase "She never came back", emphasizing the repeated absence of this person.
The final verse seems to plead for the person to return, with the repeated question "When will you come back again?" The use of "you" as opposed to "she" suggests a personal connection to this person and a desire for them to come back into the singer's life. The repetition of "oh" and "ah" at the end creates a sense of unresolved tension and longing, reflecting the overall mood of the song.
Overall, The energy story seems to be about the experience of loss and the search for connection and meaning in the midst of confusion and uncertainty.

Lyrics:
Its all started when he was kid
Money, power (were) it’s all he needs
Be the first by a way or another
ìf there is damages he didn’t matter
When he grows up he became mad
He forgets the good and keeps the bad
He didn’t care about the right and wrong
The energy story
The energy story
He was alone when he get the first price
and his eyes was full of a black ice
For the future he got a special project
to succeed he wouldn’t need any prophet
He will win by his hand and his brain
For him all in life is just a game
He quickly became a kind of dark lord
Who’s the goal was to win the world
Who’s the goal was to win the world
Who’s the goal was to win the world
Who’s the goal was to win the world
