Miracle
Oceanlab & Above & Beyond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don’t they know that there’s something going on?
What they’re harming with their indecision
But who will be left standing when I’m gone?
There’ll be nothing left but a vision

It’s too easy to turn a blind eye to the light
It’s too easy to bow your head and pray
There are some times when you should try to find your voice
This is one voice that you must find today

Are you hoping for a miracle,
As the ice caps melt away?
No use hoping for a miracle
There’s a price we’ll have to pay

Don’t they know that there’s something they can do
To be sure of tomorrow’s tomorrow
And too late is too late for me and you
No more time left for you to borrow

It’s too easy to turn a blind eye to the light
It’s too easy to bow your head and pray
There are some times when you should try to find your voice
This is one voice that you must find today

Are you hoping for a miracle
Am I still there in your plans
No use hoping for a miracle
There’s a price we’ll have to pay





Are you hoping for a miracle
Are you hoping for a miracle

Overall Meaning

The song "Miracle" by Oceanlab & Above & Beyond discusses the urgent need for mankind to take action towards saving the planet before it is too late. The lyrics begin by questioning whether people are aware of the ongoing climate crisis and the damage caused by indecision. The lines "What they're harming with their indecision / But who will be left standing when I'm gone? / There'll be nothing left but a vision" convey a sense of urgency and remind listeners of the long-term impact of ignorance and apathy towards the environment.


The chorus urges people to take action instead of just hoping for a miracle to save the planet. The lines "Are you hoping for a miracle, / As the ice caps melt away? / No use hoping for a miracle / There's a price we'll have to pay" emphasize the direness of the situation and the fact that the choices we make now will ultimately determine the fate of the planet. The song also stresses the importance of individual responsibility and the need for each person to find their own voice and act accordingly.


Overall, "Miracle" is a powerful call to action to address the climate crisis and emphasizes the need for everyone to take urgent and meaningful steps to preserve the planet for future generations.
