Interstellar
Nominee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
BURN OUT TO LET THE TIME PASS
BUT TIME IS RELEVANT
SO WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
YOU FOUND ME WITH THE SURFACE CRACKED
BURNING BRIGHT WITH A BROKEN BACK
AND I HATE THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN YOU AND THE EMPTINESS
BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE GRAVITY
TRY IF YOU'D LIKE, BUT THE HARDER YOU FIGHT
THE FASTER I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES
I'M SORRY, I KNOW THAT I'VE BEEN WEARING YOU TOO THIN
PULLING YOU IN EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DIRECTION
BEGGING YOU FOR HELP ONE DAY
AND THE NEXT ONE PULL AWAY
I'M ALWAYS CRAVING WHATEVER IS WORST FOR ME
PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
MAKING EMPTY THREATS AND PROMISES
TO KEEP YOUR ATTENTION
I'M LOST IN THE VOID AGAIN
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN YOU AND THE EMPTINESS
SO LAY IN THE LIGHT, PRETEND THAT YOU MIGHT
BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE GRAVITY
TRY IF YOU'D LIKE, BUT THE HARDER YOU FIGHT
THE FASTER I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES
PLEASE, DON'T LET ME GO
DON'T LOSE YOUR GRIP,
I THINK I WOULD MISS IT
TIME IS MOVING SLOW
BUT IT GIVES ME TIME TO GROW
I KNOW IT'S MOVING FAST FOR ME
BUT FOR YOU IT'S ETERNITY
SO LAY IN THE LIGHT, PRETEND THAT YOU MIGHT
BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE GRAVITY
TRY IF YOU'D LIKE, BUT THE HARDER YOU FIGHT
THE FASTER I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES
The song "Interstellar" by Nominee is an emotional track that delves into the complexities of a relationship where one person is struggling and the other is trying to hold them together. The opening lines, "You showed up to see me collapse, burn out to let the time pass" suggest that the singer has been going through a difficult time and the other person has been there to see the chaos unfold. Nevertheless, the singer muses that time is relative, and it may not matter whether they are burning out or trying to take it easy.
The singer is full of contradictions; they hate the distance between them and the emptiness yet crave what is worst for them. They feel sorry for pulling the other person in every direction, begging for help one day and pulling away the next. The line "I'm lost in the void again, somewhere in between you and the emptiness" is particularly poignant as it underscores the sense of disconnection that the singer feels. The chorus suggests that the other person is in danger of being pulled down with them, regardless of how hard they try to resist. The final lines, "Please, don't let me go, don't lose your grip, I think I would miss it," convey the singer's desperation for the relationship to continue despite their problems.
Line by Line Meaning
YOU SHOWED UP TO SEE ME COLLAPSE,
You came to witness my downfall
BURN OUT TO LET THE TIME PASS
And waited for my flame to extinguish so time could pass
BUT TIME IS RELEVANT
But time is not important
SO WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
So what does it matter
YOU FOUND ME WITH THE SURFACE CRACKED
You discovered me with visible flaws
BURNING BRIGHT WITH A BROKEN BACK
A vulnerable image of me burning and injured
AND I HATE THE DISTANCE
I despise the separation between us
BETWEEN YOU AND THE EMPTINESS
That creates the void between us
SO LAY IN THE LIGHT, PRETEND THAT YOU MIGHT
So for now, bask in the brightness of my presence and imagine a future
BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE GRAVITY
But you cannot avoid the inevitable pull of my mistakes and problems
TRY IF YOU'D LIKE, BUT THE HARDER YOU FIGHT
Although you may attempt to resist it, the more you try, the worse it will be
THE FASTER I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES
As I become worse, I will harm you more
I'M SORRY, I KNOW THAT I'VE BEEN WEARING YOU TOO THIN
I apologize for burdening you and causing you distress
PULLING YOU IN EVERY SINGLE F#$@ING DIRECTION
I am dragging you in every direction and causing you chaos
BEGGING YOU FOR HELP ONE DAY
One moment, I plead for your assistance
AND THE NEXT ONE PULL AWAY
And the next I push you away
I'M ALWAYS CRAVING WHATEVER IS WORST FOR ME
I am always drawn to what is harmful and detrimental to me
PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
Stopped on the side of the road
MAKING EMPTY THREATS AND PROMISES
Making promises and threats with no intention of carrying them out
TO KEEP YOUR ATTENTION
Just to keep your focus on me
I'M LOST IN THE VOID AGAIN
I am once again lost in the emptiness
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN YOU AND THE EMPTINESS
Trapped between you and the void
PLEASE, DON'T LET ME GO
Please do not abandon me
DON'T LOSE YOUR GRIP,
Please don't let me slip away from you
I THINK I WOULD MISS IT
I believe I would regret it if you let go
TIME IS MOVING SLOW
Time feels slow to me
BUT IT GIVES ME TIME TO GROW
However, it also gives me the opportunity to improve
I KNOW IT'S MOVING FAST FOR ME
I realize that time seems to move quickly for me
BUT FOR YOU IT'S ETERNITY
But for you, it feels like an endless amount of time
TRY IF YOU'D LIKE, BUT THE HARDER YOU FIGHT
Even if you try, the worse it will be
THE FASTER I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES
As I worsen, I will harm you more
