Revolution
Galantis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wander forever to find it, remember
So I run with the sun and the air til I feel it
Run away to something I believe in
The only place to go is where my heart beats faster

All we ever need is a reason for a revolution
All we ever need is a reason for a revolution
Let the song go
Let the song go
Let the song go

There's nothing that compares to heaven, I hear in my head
So I run with the sun and the air til I feel it
Run away to something I believe in
The only place to go is where my heart beats faster

All we ever need is a reason for a revolution
All we ever need is a reason for a revolution
Let the song go




Let the song go
Let the song go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Galantis's song Revolution suggest the idea that we are all searching for something in life, whether it be purpose, meaning, or happiness. The singer of the song is on a quest, constantly wandering in search of that elusive thing that he remembers from the past. He speaks of running, of chasing the sun and the air until he feels alive. The repetition of the phrase "run away to something I believe in" emphasizes the theme of escapism – the idea that we all want to escape from our problems and find something that aligns with our values and beliefs.


The chorus "All we ever need is a reason for a revolution, Let the song go" makes a powerful statement that suggests that this search for meaning and purpose can be the reason for a revolution. The revolution could mean a personal transformation, or it could be a call for societal or political change. Whatever the case may be, the song emphasizes that all we need is a reason to spark the revolution that we all have within us.


The phrase "There's nothing that compares to heaven, I hear in my head" could be interpreted as a religious reference. It suggests that the singer is seeking spiritual enlightenment and that he is aware that this search may never fully satisfy him. The lyrics are a stirring reminder that we all have a choice to seek out that thing that drives us, that makes our hearts beat faster, and that is worth the effort.
