Explode
James Fauntleroy - Explode (Prod. by Underdogs) [www.RnB4U.in] Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm right here
When the world explodes
Try to remember these words
When the world explodes!

In the darkest of nights
You are my endless fire inside
Across the waters and back to shore

There's space in time, you guide me

Afraid there's not much time
Life's a matter of moments
Face the truth
That I cannot run
I always known

So if I never get to say this to you
You should still know, dry your eyes
Find a stream that leads toward the water of the divine
Come lay with me

Face the truth, that I cannot run
I always known (I always known)

So if I never get to say this to you
You should still know, dry your eyes
Find a stream that leads toward the water of the divine
Come lay with me (lay with me)

So if I never get to say this to you
You should still know
Dry your eyes dry your eyes

Find a stream that leads toward the water of the divine
Come lay with me

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of James Fauntleroy's song "Explode" is a plea to remember the present moment when everything around us might be falling apart. Fauntleroy is a lover comforting his other half through trying times when everything is uncertain, and the world is threatening to take them down. The repeated phrase "when the world explodes" represents the chaos that can ensue in our lives and how our relationships can be the only thing that helps us understand each other.

The second verse of the song focuses on the vulnerable moments experienced in life. Fauntleroy seems to reassure his lover that he will always be there for her when times get rough. The line "there's space in time, you guide me" represents how much his lover's presence and influence means to him. The last two lines of the verse, "that I cannot run, I always known", embodies the fact that life moves quickly and trying to run away from problems only makes them worse.

The chorus is a moving declaration of love when faced with the possibility of not being able to say these words again. Fauntleroy encapsulates the message of the song in the lines, "Dry your eyes, find a stream that leads towards the water of divine, come lay with me." In essence, he is saying that no matter what happens, she can always count on him to be by her side through thick and thin.
