Eden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So hold on if you want (Want)
I don't wanna play this, no
I don't have the patience
And last year was a long one
And these days are reruns
A fine time for a breakdown, yes
Let's find words to tear these walls down
And I threw them all away
If I start then I probably won't stop
'Cause the world moves on and the lights stay on
For the next one, and next one, it's an ocean
No, I don't wanna waste forever
But I can if I want to
There's so much that can change my mind
So much of me has changed, how could I ever feel the same?

So dive in, to my home
It's all I have, woah
So drive me, 'till the shore
Spoken like a real life savior
NASCAR, we're just racing in circles again (Woo)
(We'll get it right for the next time)

Bleed out, it's a cold night
City views killed the starlight
Sleeping at the wheel for the first time
It's terrifying when you wake up
A few years later it's a new time
Hard to see how it stands from the inside
Inside, it's tried if it's tiring (Yeah)
You then, leave

So dive in, to my home (Cassini don't come home, you don't want to say it)
It's all I have, woah (And I don't want to know, but I feel it, I feel)
(Coming up for the weekend, running as far as we can)
So drive me, 'till the shore (And I don't want to be here, but I don't want to go)
Spoken like a real life savior ('Cause I need it)
NASCAR, we're ju–

Overall Meaning

Eden's song "909" explores themes of wanting change and feeling stuck in a monotonous cycle. The opening lines, "Hold on if you want, I don't wanna play this, no, I don't have the patience" suggest the singer is tired of repeating the same patterns and wants something different. The lyric "And last year was a long one, and these days are reruns" further emphasizes this feeling of being stuck in an unchanging cycle. The singer expresses a desire to break down barriers and start fresh with the line "Let's find words to tear these walls down." However, there is also a sense of uncertainty and fear of the unknown, with lines such as "If I start then I probably won't stop, 'cause the world moves on and the lights stay on, for the next one, and the next one, it's an ocean."


The second verse continues this theme, with mentions of feeling lost ("Bleed out, it's a cold night, city views killed the starlight") and a fear of change ("It's terrifying when you wake up"). The repeated use of "So dive in, to my home, it's all I have" suggests a retreat into oneself, yet there is still a desire for someone to help guide them ("Spoken like a real life savior"). The final lines of the song, "The lone and level sands stretch far away," bring the song to a close on a note of uncertainty and a longing for change.

So hold on if you want
I don't wanna play this
I don't have the patience, no
And last year was a long one
And these days are reruns
A fine time for a breakdown
Let's find words to tear these walls down
And I threw them all away
If I start then I probably won't stop
'Cause the world moves on and the lights stay on
For the next one, and next one, it's an ocean
No, I don't wanna waste forever
But I can if I want to
There's so much that can change my mind
So much of me has changed, how could I ever feel the same?
