Evolution
Dimmer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that is up to now
Is your evolution
All that has happened now
All that is up to now
It's just a chain reaction
A foregone conclusion
All that has happened now
All that is up to now
It's just the consequence, it's just the consequence
It's no coincidence
It happened every day, it's gonna happen all the same
You just get used to it
All that is up to now
Is your evolution
All that has happened now
All that is up to now
It's just the consequence
It's all evolution

Where I felt you now, it's about what I would say
It was no accident, it happened every day
It's just the same old story, it's not for you to say
You just get used to it, you just get used to it




It's all evolution
etc.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dimmer's song Evolution are reflective of the unstoppable force of change that defines the natural progression of life on this planet. The singer emphasizes that everything that has occurred up to this point is a consequence of evolutionary forces that are constantly in motion, and that our experiences are merely part of a larger chain reaction that has been set in motion. The repetition of the phrase "all that has happened now" underscores the idea that time is continually moving forward, and that every moment is linked to what has come before and what is soon to come.


The second verse portrays a sense of resignation to the inevitability of change. The singer recognizes that every day brings new challenges, but that it is ultimately up to the individual to adapt and persevere. The phrase "you just get used to it" can be interpreted as a call to embrace change rather than resist it, and to recognize that it is an integral part of the human experience.


Overall, Evolution is a contemplation of the nature of change, and a reminder that everything is part of a larger evolutionary process that is beyond our control. It encourages us to flow with the current of life, to accept change as an opportunity for growth, and to find meaning in the experience of being part of a larger whole.

Man I have fond memories watching this video on Space with my brother when we were very young and meant to be going to bed. That show introduced us to some great NZ music! Love Dimmer! The teenage kid was especially Elvis-ish. Love it!
