Shut Down
FOXOS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pass by the harbor
His golden shadow hunts the moon
My mother told me once
Pass by the harbor
He's waiting back-to-front for a zoom
This is the part that we
Cut out today
Shut down
This is the part that we
Cut out today
My mother told me twice
Go where you find him
He's waiting there to fly over the roofs
My mother told me twice
Go where you find him
He's waiting there to hide from a gloom
Shut Down
This is the part that we
Cut out today
Shut Down
This is the part that we
Cut out today
So I knew it runs in the blood
For our future and for the stars
I knew it runs in your heart
Too far apart
The lyrics of FOXOS's song "Shut Down" can be interpreted in multiple ways, but at face value, it appears to be a conversation between a mother and child. The mother gives the child advice to "pass by the harbor" and look for someone who is "waiting back-to-front for a zoom" or "waiting there to fly over the roofs," which could symbolize chasing dreams or taking risks. The repetition of the mother's advice emphasizes its importance to the child.
The chorus of the song, which repeats the phrase "Shut Down, This is the part that we cut out today," can be interpreted in a number of ways. It could be a call to action for the child to push aside any distractions or negative influences and focus on their goals. It could also refer to shutting down any negative self-talk or doubts they may have.
The final lines of the song, "So I knew it runs in the blood, For our future and for the stars, I knew it runs in your heart, Too far apart," suggest that the child has inherited the same drive and determination as their mother, but they may feel disconnected from it.
Overall, the song encourages perseverance and taking risks in pursuit of one's dreams, while also acknowledging the challenges and doubts that may arise along the way.
