Meridian Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's too late to turn around
What's done is done it can't be found
Life's a chance, we only have one shot
To be everything we can be

You’re taking your life down a hopeless road
Life has a way of catching up to you

You left me so much older
You left me feeling colder
And I, will try, to make it in time
Maybe not for tonight but for the rest of my life
For the rest of my time

For the rest of my time

Looking back on mistakes I've made
I question “Was it really worth it?"
And “How we let it get this far?"
The past eats away our minds

Maybe I was wrong?
As it sleeps in your mind and haunts your brain

You’re taking your life down a hopeless road
Life has a way of catching up to you

You left me so much older
You left me feeling colder

And I, will try, to make it in time
Maybe not for tonight but for the rest of my life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Meridian's song Waves delve into the themes of regret, the passage of time and the consequences of our actions. The opening lines of “It's too late to turn around, What's done is done it can't be found” establishes a sense of despair and finality, almost as if the singer is resigned to the fact that there is no going back on the choices that have been made. The line “Life's a chance, we only have one shot, To be everything we can be” can be interpreted as a call to action, a plea for us to make the most of the time we have and to live our lives to the fullest.

The verses touch upon the sense of regret and the insidious nature of memory, with lines such as “Looking back on mistakes I've made, I question ‘Was it really worth it?’ And ‘How we let it get this far?’ The past eats away our minds”. The singer is tormented by the choices they have made, and the consequences they have to face. The chorus of the song “You left me so much older, You left me feeling colder, And I, will try, to make it in time, Maybe not for tonight but for the rest of my life, For the rest of my time” serves as a reminder that our choices affect not only ourselves but others in our lives, and the consequences of those choices can last a lifetime.

Life has a way of catching up to you

Life's a chance, we only have one shot
Life has a way of catching up to you

You left me so much older
You made me feel as if I’ve aged and gone through more than I should

You left me feeling colder
You left a void that is so immense, I feel cold and empty

And I, will try, to make it in time
I will do my best to accomplish what I need to succeed

Maybe not for tonight but for the rest of my life
My future is important, and I will do what it takes to succeed.

For the rest of my time
For the rest of my life, I will strive to do better

Looking back on mistakes I've made
Reflecting on past mistakes

I question “Was it really worth it?”
Were the decisions I made the right ones?
