Ascension
Irrelevant Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Che ci vado a fare a Londra?
Io sto bene qui con me
Con gli amici e la mia donna
voglia di partire non ce n'è
Non ci vengo a questo incontro
o mia bella bretone
se ti amo e poi ti perdo
il dolore resterà con me
Ma c'è un sogno che
sale dentro me
Londra me and you
nel pianeta blu
Barricato nella stanza
cerco il cielo ma non c'è
c'è rimasta un'ora d'aria
per soffrire le altre 23
Ma quando arriverà
no non se ne andrà
Londra you and me
io ti aspetto qui
non fare così
ora lasciami
Londra me and you
nel pianeta blu
Ma c'è un sogno che
sale dentro me
Londra me and you
nel pianeta blu
Non fare così
ora lasciami
Londra you and me
io ti aspetto qui




I don't wanna go to London…
ay ay ay ay ay

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Irrelevant's song "Ascension" seem to revolve around the inner conflict of the singer, who is torn between staying in his current surroundings with his loved ones, and pursuing his dreams in London. In the first stanza, he questions the purpose of going to London when he is content with his life with his friends and girlfriend. He expresses his reluctance to attend a meeting with a woman he loves, as the fear of losing her would be unbearable. However, despite his reservations, there is a growing desire within him to pursue his dream of being in London, the "blue planet". He yearns for the chance to be with his loved one in London, as he barricades himself in his room, surrounded by the pain of his conflicted emotions.


The second stanza highlights the singer's struggle with his current situation, as he seeks solace by looking up at the sky, but to no avail. He is trapped in his room, with only an hour of air left, making him suffer for the remaining 23 hours. Yet, despite all this, there is an undeniable feeling of hope within him that the dream of being in London with his loved one will come true one day. The chorus repeats the singer's desire to be in London with his loved one, as he begs her not to leave him behind. In the end, he repeats the affirmation that he doesn't want to go to London, perhaps indicating his fear of the unknown, but at the same time not being able to resist the pull of his dreams.
