Winded
Iron Chic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And if I make mistakes at least they are my own
There is no fate but what we make
And in the end we all terminate
If we try and make our time worthwhile
Then we've done alright
The lights are out the doors are closed
The end of the show the end of the road
But we know
Iron Chic's song "I Never Get Winded" is a testament to a life lived to the fullest, regardless of consequences. The lyrics "These are the risks I take, this is the life I chose" embody a certain sense of rebellion, of doing things on one's own terms. It's a theme that runs through the entire song, as the singer seems to reject the notion of fate, preferring instead to make his own path in life.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, with the lines "And in the end we all terminate/If we try and make our time worthwhile/Then we've done alright". It speaks to the idea that, no matter what fate might have in store for us, we can still make our time on this earth meaningful. It's a call to action, a reminder that we should always strive to make every moment count.
The final stanza of the song brings the message home, as the lights go out and the doors close. The end of the show and the end of the road are inevitable, but we can still make the most of the time we have. It's a bittersweet message, but ultimately one of hope.

I understand that it's okay to make mistakes as long as I take responsibility for them and learn from them
There is no fate but what we make
Our lives are determined by the choices and actions we take, not by some predetermined destiny

No one is immortal and eventually we all come to the end of our lives
If we try and make our time worthwhile
We can make the most of our lives by pursuing activities that are meaningful and fulfilling

The lights are out the doors are closed
The show or experience is over and it's time to move on
The end of the show the end of the road
This is the final curtain call, the end of the journey
We can pretend that we don't know
We may try to deny or ignore the fact that the end is near
But we know
Deep down, we all understand that our time is limited and that we need to make the most of it
