Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Those times when love's what you hate
Somehow
We keep marchin on
For those nights when I couldn't be there
I've made it harder to know that you know
That somehow
There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have, I promise you that
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
For all of the plans we've made
There isn't a flag I'd wave
Don't care if we bend, I'd sink us to swim
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know
We're not what we've seen
For this dance we'll move with each other
There ain't no other step than one foot
Right in front of the other
There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have, I promise you that
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
For all of the plans we've made
There isn't a flag I'd wave
Don't care if we bend, I'd sink us to swim
We're marching on
We're marching on
We're marching on
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right
We're marching on
We'll have the days we break
And we'll have the scars to prove it
We'll have the bombs that we save
But we'll have the heart not to lose it
For all of the times we've stopped
For all of the things I'm not
We put one foot in front of the other
We move like we ain't got no other
We go where we go
We're marchin on
There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have, I promise you that
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
We're marchin on
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right
We're marchin on
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right, right left
Right, right, right
We're marchin on

A good idea for a music video with this song would be:
A person being bullied on the ground with people saying mean things to the person being bullied.
Then near the beginning of the songs the person being bullied wipes off the tears and starts to get up and walk forward bravely.
Then the people who were bullying him started to follow him still saying bad things.
Then at the end of the song the person being bullied crossed this finish line as the camera only shows his feet.
Then the camera shows the grown person being bullied with a nice family with no bullies left.

I guess OneRepublic was a gift for all 2000's kids. Nostalgia is a strong and awesome feeling.
