Revolution
Night Beats Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I just can't keep these feelings
Inside my head

Talking to myself like I had a crowd
Rolling down the street with no-one around

I wake up every morning
Maybe a quarter past 2

I left so many bodies behind
Please lord take this wheel

I'll start a revolution
Inside of my mind
I look back at all the bridges I've burned
I swear I'll turn it around

I left my job from nowhere
I called myself a friend
I took my bag, tried to lose a crowd
Dont care dont fit in
Yeah I don't care I don't fit in

Start a revolution
Inside of my mind
I look back at all the bridges i burned




I swear i'll turn it around
I swear i'll turn it around

In the latter part of the song, the singer reflects on their decision to leave behind their job and social circles, embracing a sense of non-conformity and self-discovery. The defiant declaration of "Yeah I don't care I don't fit in" showcases a rebellious spirit and rejection of societal norms, as they continue to embrace their journey towards personal growth and authenticity.
