Save The World
Leah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ever ceasing to resign, when the forecast speaks of storms around
You're never gonna save the world (so give up the fight)
You're never gonna change the world (and I don't even mind)
You rejoice when the dark gets darker
Cause it means that you'll be gone before too long
But what if we are here for a while?
You're never gonna save the world (so give up the fight)
You're never gonna change the world (and I don't even mind)
Don't polish brass on this sinking ship (so wipe off that grin)
It's all going to hell in a hand basket (even God can't win)
These self-fulfilling prophecies
A plague, a virus and disease
You're never gonna save the world (so give up the fight)
You're never gonna change the world (and I don't even mind)
Don't polish brass on this sinking ship (so wipe off that grin)
It's all going to hell in a hand basket (even God can't win)
You're never gonna save the world
You're never gonna change the world
Time to reach for higher ground
Time to take the time
Winds of change have blown me down
Conquering the line
The song "Save the World" by Leah is a reflection on the futility of trying to make a positive impact on the world. The lyrics describe a sense of resignation and defeat, as if the singer has given up on trying to change things for the better. The first verse begins with the singer expressing a constant search for some indication that the world is falling apart. Despite feeling overwhelmed by the negativity and turmoil surrounding them, they refuse to give up. However, the chorus bluntly states that any efforts to save or change the world are ultimately futile, as it is all going to hell in a handbasket. The lines "Don't polish brass on this sinking ship" and "even God can't win" suggest that even divine intervention cannot save us from our doomed fate.
The second verse takes a somewhat nihilistic turn, with the singer relishing the darkness and hoping for a swift exit from the world. However, the final lines of the song offer a glimmer of hope. The chorus is repeated, but with a slight alteration: instead of telling the listener to give up the fight, it urges them to reach for higher ground and take their time. The winds of change, though they may have knocked the singer down, are also an opportunity to rise up and conquer.
Overall, "Save the World" is a poignant commentary on the human condition. It captures the sense of hopelessness and despair that can often overshadow our attempts to enact change, but it also suggests that there is still a chance for us to make a difference if we are willing to persevere and adapt.
