Closure
Pluto Revolts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As to what to do
Worry weighs a ton
Now you've got to
Run just like the devil's chasin' you
You tried to fight the hunger, but it grew
So feast your appetite
Swallow all the light
Take it capture
Bottle your desires
Surrendering a flag of faded white
The only thing that's left to set it right
Is closure
Is closure
Write it on the breeze
That if we see peace
We should plan for war
Now we can't ignore
The silent rustling in the trees
Lend me your new-fashioned expertise
So feast your appetite
Like a vulture
Swallow all the light
Take it capture
Bottle your desires
Surrendering a flag of faded white (faded, faded white)
The only thing that's left to set it right (set it, set it right)
Is closure
Is closure
So feast your appetite (your appetite)
Like a vulture
Swallow (swallow) all the light (all the light)
Take it capture
Bottle (bottle) your desires (your desires)
Surrendering a flag of faded white (faded, faded white)
The only thing that's left to set it right (set it, set it right)
Is closure
So feast your appetite
Like a vulture
Swallow (swallow, swallow) all the light (all the light)
Take it capture
Bottle (bottle) your desires (your desires)
Surrendering a flag of faded white (faded, faded white)
The only thing that's left to set it right (set it, set it right)
Is closure
The lyrics of Pluto Revolts' song "Closure" describe a situation in which the singer doesn't know how to handle something that is weighing heavily on their mind. The worry has become so overwhelming that the singer feels like they need to run away from it just like the devil is chasing them. They have tried to ignore or suppress their desires, but they have grown stronger. The only way to make things right is to find closure.
The chorus repeats the phrase "feast your appetite like a vulture, swallow all the light, take it capture, bottle your desires, surrendering a flag of faded white" several times. This lyric refers to indulging in one's desires and taking control of them, even if it means sacrificing something in the process. The visual of a vulture feasting on its prey and surrendering a flag of faded white could represent letting go of something that no longer serves a purpose.
The second verse suggests that sometimes, one must prepare for the worst even if they hope for the best. The silent rustling in the trees could represent an imminent threat, one that can't be ignored. The singer acknowledges that they don't have all the answers and need someone with "new-fashioned expertise" to help.
Overall, the song "Closure" by Pluto Revolts is about the struggle of balancing personal desires with the need for closure. The lyrics suggest that sometimes, one must give in to their desires to find closure and make things right.
