Coming from Bucharest - Romania, the five piece metal act started as an unexpected mixture of former members from the heavy metal band Thunderstorm and the winner of the 2008 national TV casting show Megastar.
The five guys met and as soon as they played together, all hell broke loose. After realizing that there's great potential to this unusual mix of different musical backgrounds, the band was soon to be baptized "Goodbye to Gravity", a name that's meant to defy strict rules, preconceived ideas and genre limitations.
The music they play is the natural result of the chemistry spawned by the collision of the two musical worlds. The traditional vs. the new, the brutal vs. the sensitive, the riffs vs. the melody. The band's full-on, high-energy tunes with great hooks and heavy breakdowns, is sure to rattle some bones in the industry.
The band ended their activity in 2015 after Colectiv club fire: 4 members died and vocalist Andrei Galut was seriously injured.
Band Members (last known line-up):
Andrei Galut - vocals
Alex Pascu - bass (deceased)
Vlad Telea - guitars (deceased)
Bogdan Enache - drums (deceased)
Mihai Alexandru - guitars (deceased)
Waking Up
Goodbye to Gravity Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Awaking
Forsaking
We're reaching through
We're making
The breaking
To hide the truth
And taking
You're faking
Ever wondered why we're needing more
Buying
And lying
Denying
We lose control
We're crying
And dying
We can't let go
Of tying
Ourselves through every single word
They're prying
From my own self in judging day
As long as you hide
Your inner side
We still have a long way to climb
Through all this course
Just wake up this day
And open up your
Open up your
Eyes
As long as you remember
I will not surrender
Harness what they can't control
When the powers that be will take them down
Down again
As long as you hide
Your inner side
We still have a long way to climb
Through all this course
Just wake up this day
Wake up
Wake up
The lyrics of Waking Up by Goodbye to Gravity describe the struggles faced by individuals to deny their innermost selves in order to conform to societal pressures. The song starts by highlighting the journey of realizing the true self by breaking through the facade that has been created by the individual to fit in. The lyrics explore the concept of hiding our true emotions and needs and instead, putting on a mask to meet the expectations of others. By doing so, we forsake our genuine desires and hopes, and instead, chase after the superficial things like buying material possessions and lying to maintain an image.
The lyrics further delve into the consequences of this behavior, which results in losing control, feeling helpless, and eventually breaking down. The song emphasizes the need to break free from these societal norms, to let go of the ties that bind us, and to accept ourselves for who we truly are. The chorus highlights the importance of opening our eyes, to realize the futility of this cycle of pretending and to embrace our authentic selves.
In conclusion, the lyrics of Waking Up by Goodbye to Gravity remind us of the value of self-introspection and the importance of being true to ourselves.
