Ground Zero
Crazy Sally Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One two three four
Where are we going this morning?
There′s a voice inside my head
Searching love everywhere we go
We're moving fast
But don′t know if we're coming through
The world of tomorrow
Ask yourself: who do you blame for?
Children′s voices inside my head
Good old times were always the best
Got no future once more
Got too much past
Once more got too much past
Once more got too much past
The world of tomorrow
Ask yourself: who do you blame for?
I've got a brain behind my eyes
I′ve got a memory full of lies
I've got a nightmare to ignore
Ask yourself
Where are we going this century?
I′m a robot inside my brain
Searching love from Venus to Pluto
Speed of light
To Pluto speed of light
Venus to Pluto speed of light
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Who do you blame for?
Still don't know
We′re coming through ooh
Still don't know
We're coming through
Who do you blame for?
The lyrics to Crazy Sally's "Ground Zero" express a sense of confusion and uncertainty about the direction of the world and one's place in it. The opening lines establish a feeling of disorientation and a search for purpose as the singer asks "Where are we going this morning?" and references a voice inside their head. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for a desire for guidance or a higher purpose in life.
The song then speaks of searching for love "everywhere we go," possibly indicating a yearning for connection and meaning. However, the singer expresses a sense of doubt, unsure if they are truly making progress or "coming through". They then ask, "who do you blame for?" in reference to the state of the "world of tomorrow," suggesting a frustration or disillusionment with the current state of society.
The second half of the song incorporates mentions of childhood memories and the weight of the past. The singer conveys a sense of being stuck in the past and lacking a future. They then repeat their question of "who do you blame for?" as if searching for answers or accountability. The lyrics evoke a feeling of searching for answers and purpose while acknowledging the complexity of the world around us.
