Your Turn
Helloween Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't just kick it away, got to get things right
Sometimes it happens fast and nothin' seems to last
The thing that I once started isn't mine anymore
I guess now it's my turn
You've got a face like a child, got a mind like a woman
Your smile is warm and tender
From you and all the problems you might bring
They'll never know, you
Nobody ever knows what to do
They'll never see you cry
They'll never know why
Now it's your turn to break free
When you want it all you've got to see
Now it's your turn to break free
When you want the life, you've got to see what it means
See the little boy holding mama's hand
His eyes can see the things we've long forgotten
The world is easy now, and somehow
He's right
Until there is this day when Mickey Mouse must go away
It's your turn to break free
This world is crying to be free
This world is dying can't you see
We need a turn to do it right
We need a mind-revolution
To get away from this selfishness
Stop playing blind, break free
The lyrics of Helloween's song Your Turn talk about taking responsibility for your actions and making the right choices in life. The song reflects on the idea that life is constantly changing, and we must be ready to adapt and take ownership of our lives. The opening line talks about how there comes a day when we can't simply ignore the changes around us and must get things right. The second verse talks about the delicate relationship between two people and how outsiders might judge the situation without truly understanding it. The chorus urges the listener to break free from their limitations and understand what it means to live life to the fullest.
The last verse mentions a little boy holding his mother’s hand, and how he sees the world with a sense of wonder and ease. The lyrics then take a dark turn as the singer mentions that there will be a day when Mickey Mouse must go away, suggesting that the innocence of childhood inevitably fades with time. The chorus then reiterates the idea that it's time to break free from the limitations of this world and create something better. In summary, the song is a call to action for the listener to take responsibility for their life and create a better world where everyone can flourish.
Line by Line Meaning
Now there is this day, a lot of things are changing
Today marks an important moment, as significant changes are happening
Can't just kick it away, got to get things right
We can't ignore or overlook these changes, we must confront and resolve them
Sometimes it happens fast and nothin' seems to last
Change can occur rapidly, and it may feel like what we have today won't be around tomorrow
The thing that I once started isn't mine anymore
What I once started or had control over has evolved beyond my ownership or jurisdiction
I guess now it's my turn
It's my moment, my opportunity to make my mark and influence the outcome
You've got a face like a child, got a mind like a woman
Your countenance may seem innocent or inexperienced, but your mentality and perspectives far transcend that image
Your smile is warm and tender
Your expression radiates with warmth and kindness
I hear the people say that I should stay away
Others caution me against getting involved with you
From you and all the problems you might bring
You have a reputation or history of causing issues, and people assume you will continue to do so
They'll never know, you
Despite hearing about you or your problems, people don't truly know who you are
Nobody ever knows what to do
Even when faced with challenges or dilemmas, there isn't always an easy or correct solution
They'll never see you cry
Despite any struggles or hardships, you keep your emotions in check and do not let others see you vulnerable
They'll never know why
People may observe or hear about your problems, but they won't understand the true reasons behind them
Now it's your turn to break free
It's your moment to liberate yourself from whatever may be holding you back
When you want it all you've got to see
In order to achieve your goals, you must first envision and understand what it 'all' entails
When you want the life, you've got to see what it means
To pursue the life you desire, you must comprehend what that entails and the changes it may bring
See the little boy holding mama's hand
Observe this young child, still nurtured and protected by his mother
His eyes can see the things we've long forgotten
The purity and clarity of this child's view reminds us of aspects or perspectives we have lost sight of or ignored
The world is easy now, and somehow
From this child's perspective, the world may seem uncomplicated and straightforward
He's right
Perhaps this child is indeed correct, and we need to relearn or reassess our viewpoints
Until there is this day when Mickey Mouse must go away
Change is inevitable, even affecting cherished or beloved things that we never thought would alter or end
This world is crying to be free
Our world, and its inhabitants, are longing for freedom and liberation
This world is dying can't you see
Without freedom or change, this world will stagnate and perish
We need a turn to do it right
We need a chance, or an opportunity, to correct and improve our situation
We need a mind-revolution
We need a complete shift or transformation in how we think or approach these issues
To get away from this selfishness
Our selfishness, our individualistic desires and actions, must be left behind to progress forward
Stop playing blind, break free
Trying to ignore or overlook our problems will only hinder our progress; instead, we must confront and overcome them to achieve liberation
