Come Around
Corella Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There′s a movement found
Where actions allow
Break out the silence
In the streets that hold
A nations worth
Or the nations curse
Go outside
Do what we like
Head to a hilltop where they see our eyes
Feel bright
We'll do what we like
We′ll do what we like
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
It's a war outside
Is the end in sight?
The actions speakin louder
And the people make you go
Go outside
Do what you like
Do what you like
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
You're makin′ me desperate
You′re makin' me wholesome
You′re makin' me better
You′re makin' my hole
You′re comin' around
You're comin′ around
You′re makin' me desperate
You′re makin' me wholesome
You′re makin' me better
You′re makin' my hole
You're comin′ around
You′re comin' around
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
And if it all falls down to this
Would you come around, come around
To a better sound, better sound
The song "Come Around" by Corella is about the need for change and action in small towns, where there is often a status quo that imprisons people in silence. The song is a call to arms to break free from apathy and take charge of one's own destiny. It celebrates the power of community and the collective voice that can make a difference. The lyrics evoke images of a nation's fate hanging in the balance of small towns, and the responsibility that comes with that realization.
The chorus of the song "Come Around" poses a question - "And if it all falls down to this, would you come around to a better sound?" - inviting the listener to imagine a better future, and asking if they would be willing to work towards it. The repeated phrases "you're making me desperate, you're making me wholesome, you're making me better, you're making my whole" highlight the transformative power of change and movement, and the importance of coming together to create positive change for one's self and one's community.
In summary, "Come Around" is an anthem for small towns, calling for a better future that can only be achieved through action and community. It celebrates the power of collective voice and the responsibility that comes with realizing that a nation's fate rests in the hands of its people.
