Under the Stars
Greek Fire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As the lead takes her hand
The makeup is wet
As the gallery stands
The air is alive
And the city awaits
The air is alive
And the city awaitsOh, under the stars
The canvas has dropped
At the back of the stage
The music is soft
As crescendos await
The air is alive
And the city is waiting
The air is alive
And the city is waiting
Oh, under the stars
The world is a show
Yes, it's always the same
The ending we know
But that's not why we came
The air is alive
And the city is waiting
The moment's arrived
And the angels are shaking
Oh, under the stars
With every name
There is nothing new under the sun
No, it's always the same
Yes, this world will go on
It's always competing
Yes, the show will go on
It's always repeatingOh, the characters play
And the hero will sing our song
As machines raise the gap
The show goes on
And the people are waiting
The moment's arrived
The angels are shaking
Oh, under the stars
I believe in love that will live through the age
I believe that the world is a stage
I believe in a love that will live through the age
I believe that the world is a stage
Oh!
The song "Under The Stars" by Greek Fire speaks about the show that is life and how it goes on every day, always repeating itself. The song starts with a lead taking someone's hand on a stage, where the makeup is wet and the air is alive as the city awaits. The canvas has dropped, and the music is soft awaiting crescendos as the world is a show, always repeating itself. However, the song tries to remind us that amidst all this repetitiveness, there is something unique and special about each person who plays a character on this stage of life. The hero sings our song, and love is believed to be strong enough to live through the ages.
The lyrics to "Under The Stars" are a reminder that life is like a show, and we are all characters playing different roles in it. The chorus emphasizes the "air is alive, and the city is waiting" as a symbol of how life goes on with or without us, and we are just a small part of this grand event. The line "with every name, there is nothing new under the sun" further emphasizes the point about repetition in life. However, the lyrics are also meant to inspire optimism and hope, reminding us that love is strong enough to endure time and that the world is a stage that we play on.
