Parachute Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the lights they try to pull me in
Oh and I should be sleeping
Oh but I can't close my eyes anymore
So wide awake again
And everybody says that I should just forget
The hardest part is over with
There will never be a heart that I could break
That I could find to take your place
There's nothing I can do
I can't get over you overnight
I can't get over you overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I watch the strangers pass me by
Every time their face looks just like you
Oh and I still remember you in my arms
When I would hold you
Back when the sun would always rise too soon
And everybody says that I should just forget
The hardest part is over with
But it's so dark and I can't see the light
And there will never be a heart that I could break
That I could find to take your place
There's nothing I can do
I can't get over you, overnight
I can't get over you, overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I can't get over you, overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
I should be sleeping
everybody says that I should just forget
The hardest part is over with
It's so dark and I can't see the light
And there will never be a heart that I could break
That I could find to take your place
There's nothing I can do
I can't get over you, overnight
I can't get over you, overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I can't get over you, overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I can't get over you, overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
I walk these midnight streets alone

Overnight I walk these midnight streets alone
I wander these lonely streets at night, all alone
All the lights they try to pull me in
The city lights attempt to draw me in, but they cannot fill the void in my heart
Oh and I should be sleeping
Although I know I should be getting some rest,
Oh but I can't close my eyes anymore
I cannot find peace and tranquility, and I am unable to fall asleep
So wide awake again
I remain fully alert and wide awake
And everybody says that I should just forget
People advise me to let go of my feelings and thoughts
The hardest part is over with
But for me, the toughest part remains, and it is not yet over
But it's so dark and I can't see the light
I am surrounded by darkness and cannot see any hope or positivity
There will never be a heart that I could break
I will never find someone else to replace you
That I could find to take your place
No one can fill the void caused by your absence
There's nothing I can do
I am helpless and incapable of changing the situation
I can't get over you overnight
It takes time for me to heal and let go of my feelings for you
I watch the strangers pass me by
I observe the unfamiliar faces of strangers as they walk past me
Every time their face looks just like you
But each time, I am reminded of you, as their face resembles yours
Oh and I still remember you in my arms
I cannot forget the times when we held each other close
When I would hold you
Those were moments when I held you in my embrace
Back when the sun would always rise too soon
In the past, the sun would rise too quickly, indicating that our time together was not enough
I should be sleeping
Despite my exhaustion, I should be asleep
everybody says that I should just forget
People urge me to move on and forget about you
I can't get over you, overnight
It is not easy for me to forget my feelings for you overnight
I should be sleeping, overnight
Although I should be sleeping, my thoughts keep me awake through the night
