Head On
Earthquake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stop being fucking retarded
And get your life back on track
I know shit gets hard sometimes
Been there before
Pick yourself up off the ground
And face your problems
Head on and expect nothing more
Than satisfaction of not backing down
Turn your life fucking around
You just have to let go
Think positive, fuck the lows
Fuck the lows!




Turn your life fucking around
Never give up, never back down!

Iโ€™m Japanese. Sorry if I donโ€™t make sense for my poor English. Thank you everyone here for praying for Japanese people and Japan.

We are definitely having one of the worst time, there are still people who canโ€™t escape and stuck under the collapsed houses. Moreover, a plane crashed at Haneda airport and again, people died.

We completely lost festive atmosphere for the new year and I, also have been feeling devastated and downhearted for the people whoโ€™re suffering right now.

What a start of 2024. I also hope things gets better soon and I feel sorry for people who lost their loved ones.

Please be well-prepared for natural disasters, everyone

Praying for the people, especially those who were badly affected. Praying that no more aftershocks and tsunami. I feel bad upon hearing it. Love the country and its people,as well.

Praying: the solution that solves nothing. The only thing it does is to make people think they are actually helping, without having to do anything whatsoever.

@FOAB-Carlos

โ€‹@ajfhalfj . You're the litteral living definition of "you must be fun at parties" If thats the Case, Praying is no different than the people saying "free palestine" who aren't really doing anything to help palestine. Are you gonna say anything about that too, lol?
