The Passenger
LUM!X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped-back sky
And everything looks good (good)
I am the passenger
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
He sees the silent hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped-back sky
And everything looks good
I am the passenger
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
The lyrics to LUM!X's "The Passenger" describe the experience of being a passenger in a vehicle and taking in one's surroundings. The singer sees the stars come out and looks up at the bright, hollow sky overhead. They note how the cityscape looks different from this vantage point, with its "ripped-back" sides and winding ocean drive. Despite any negativity or flaws that might exist on the ground level, the singer declares that "everything looks good" from their elevated position in the vehicle.
The repeated refrain of "I am the passenger" suggests a feeling of detachment and observation from the singer. They are not driving the vehicle, but rather simply along for the ride. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for how we often experience life - we are not always in control of our circumstances, but can instead choose to observe and appreciate the world around us.
Overall, the lyrics to "The Passenger" capture a certain feeling of wonder and openness to the world. The song encourages listeners to appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of their environment, even if it takes a shift in perspective to do so.
