Gravity
Hit the Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel the gravity?
Right now!
Can you feel me closing in counting down satellites?
Can you see the galaxies brighten when we're aligned?
And every star that navigates,
I've been orbiting but you could pull me through
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel the gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy,
As it pulls you into me?
Can you gravitate to me?
Do you lie awake scanning the stars at night?
Are you holding out hope for a sign of life?
Do constellations carry you?
Do galaxies come into view?
Do you wait for me?
Cause I could wait for you!
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Do you feel the gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy,
As it pulls you into me?
Can you gravitate to me?
Right now!
Don't!
Don't pass me by
If we let go
Our worlds collide
Our worlds collide
Can you feel our gravity?
Can you gravitate to me?
Can you feel our gravity?
Right now
Can you feel our energy?
Could it pull you into me?
Can you feel our gravity?
Right now
The song Gravity by Hit the Lights is a song about being pulled towards someone by a strong force that feels like gravity. The first verse talks about how the singer is closing in and counting down satellites, almost as if tracking their journey towards the person they're singing to. They ask if the other person can feel the same pull and if they're gravitating towards each other. The chorus repeats the question and the urgency of the situation is emphasized with "right now". The second verse asks if the other person is also watching the stars at night, hoping for a sign of life and waiting for the singer. The bridge is a plea for the other person not to pass them by and to let their worlds collide, a metaphor for coming together despite any obstacles.
The use of space imagery throughout the song adds to the feeling of distance and longing, as well as the idea of a powerful force that can't be controlled. The repetition of the questions throughout the song also emphasizes the urgency and importance of the situation. The song's overall message is about the intense attraction and connection between two people and how it can feel like a magnetic pull towards each other that can't be ignored.

No life till leather
We're gonna kick some ass tonight
We got the metal madness
When our fans start screaming it's right, well alright
When we start to rock we never
Want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
We know our fans are insane
We're gonna blow this place away
With volume higher
Than anything today, the only way
When we start to rock we never
Want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
With all our screaming
We're gonna rip right through your brain
We got the lethal power
It's causing you sweet pain, oh sweet pain
When we start to rock we never
Want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
