Rejoice
Hercules Love Affair Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The more convict
The crime
Tears are not needed
Did you have your lot today?
Of guilt and sorrow
Secrets have taught you
Live life with joy
Go on and just do it
Why won't you come and take it?
Go on and just do it
Why won't you come and take it?
Slave to the darkest hour
We're longing for the light
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice every situation
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice, don't let life pass you by
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice every situation
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice, don't let life pass you by
You crave focus with no meaning
You pray again to the heroine
You keep on looking for
Something to get on over
But the journey meaning and rule your life
Go on and just do it
Why won't you come and take it?
Go on and just do it
Why won't you come and take it?
Slave to the darkest hour
We're longing for the light
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice every situation
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice, don't let life pass you by
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice every situation
Rejoice from this very day
Rejoice, don't let life pass you by
Go on and just do it
Ooooh go on
Go on and just do it
Come and take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Come and take it
The song "Rejoice" by Hercules Love Affair is an anthem for living life to the fullest, in spite of guilt and sorrow. The lyrics encourage listeners to embrace every situation and find joy in life. The opening lines describe a feeling of tightness, as if being trapped in a difficult situation from which escape seems impossible. However, the song quickly changes direction, encouraging the listener to break free from the darkness and take control of their destiny.
The chorus is particularly powerful, urging people to "rejoice from this very day" and not let life pass them by. It's clear that the singer believes that no matter what difficulties life may throw their way, it's always possible to find happiness and satisfaction in the present moment. The final section of the song is particularly uplifting, as the lyrics urge listeners to "just do it" and "take it" - whatever "it" may be - and make the most of every opportunity that comes their way.
Overall, "Rejoice" is a powerful reminder that life is too short to waste on negativity and regrets. By embracing every situation and finding joy in life, we can weather even the darkest hours and emerge stronger and more fulfilled in the end.
