Wade In
Everything Is Made in China Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Words stuck in my head denied
Just don't get me wrong, I lied

Wade in myself, wade in my, wade in myself, wade in myself

I start to cut the rope behind
Wish I wrote my swan song in time
Wade in myself, wade in my, wade in myself, wade in myself





Stars not running late, I've got the last ticket to the empty train
It will lock me in, the end starts at the beginning

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Wade In" by Everything Is Made in China are somewhat cryptic, but there are some themes that can be discerned. The phrase "words stuck in my head denied" could refer to the feeling of being unable to express oneself fully, perhaps because of fear or doubt. The following line, "just don't get me wrong, I lied," could suggest a sense of guilt for not being truthful or open about one's thoughts and feelings.


The repeated refrain of "wade in myself" seems to be a call to take action, to confront one's own inner turmoil and face it head-on. The line "I start to cut the rope behind" could indicate a desire to break free from one's current circumstances, to sever ties with the past and move forward. The mention of a "swan song" suggests the possibility of impending doom or an ending, but there is also the implication that it could have been avoided if the singer had acted differently.


The final lines of the song, "stars not running late, I've got the last ticket to the empty train / it will lock me in, the end starts at the beginning," could be interpreted in a number of ways. It could be a metaphor for the inevitability of death, or a more abstract statement about the cyclical nature of life. The idea of having the "last ticket" could suggest that the singer has come to some sort of realization or acceptance, but the fact that the train is "empty" implies a sense of isolation or emptiness.
