Fade In–Out
Oasis feat. Johnny Depp Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
(One, two, three, four)
Get on the roller coaster, the fair's in town today
You gotta be bad enough to beat the brave
So get on the helter skelter, bowl into the fray
You gotta be bad enough to beat the brave
You fade in-out
Without a doubt
I don't see no shine
Today is just a daydream
Tomorrow we'll be castaway
Comin' in out of nowhere, singin' rhapsody
You gotta be bad enough to wanna be
Sittin' upside a high-chair, the devil's refugee
Is gonna be blinded by the light that follows me
She fade in-out
She fade in-out
Without a doubt
I don't see no shine
Today is just a daydream
Tomorrow she'll be cast away
(Ah!)
We fade in-out
We fade in-out
Without a doubt
I don't see no shine
Today is just a daydream
Tomorrow you'll be cast away
So get on the roller coaster, the fair's in town today
You gotta be bad enough to meet the brave
Get on the helter skelter, step into the fray
You gotta be bad enough to beat the brave
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
You fade in-out
The lyrics of "Fade In-Out" by Oasis featuring Johnny Depp seem to convey a sense of intensity and unpredictability, drawing parallels between life's challenges and the adrenaline rush of being on a roller coaster or navigating a fairground. The imagery of the roller coaster and fairground setting sets the stage for a metaphorical journey where one must be bold and daring to overcome obstacles and stand out from the crowd.
The repeated phrase "fade in-out" can be interpreted as the fluctuating nature of life and experiences, where things may appear and disappear in a cycle of highs and lows. This notion is reinforced by the lines "Without a doubt, I don't see no shine," suggesting a sense of uncertainty and fleeting moments of brilliance that may not always be noticeable or lasting.
The references to being "bad enough to beat the brave" and the idea of being a "devil's refugee" hint at themes of rebellion, defiance, and resilience against societal norms or expectations. The singer seems to be embracing their own individuality and standing up against challenges with a fearless attitude, even if it means going against the grain and facing opposition.
Overall, the lyrics of "Fade In-Out" evoke a sense of living in the moment, embracing the unpredictability of life, and being unafraid to confront obstacles head-on. The song captures a spirit of defiance, freedom, and the exhilarating sense of pushing boundaries and taking risks, all set against a backdrop of a raucous fairground atmosphere where anything can happen.
