Our Symphonies
Polaris At Noon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Provides me nightly with these empty streets
And the signs I need
And even though everyone's gone
They always come back when the seasons come around
From different corners of the world
We're going separate ways as we all find our own design
We have the same blood and we won't forget
Wait for me
We're all going alone but now I've come to see
That we're conducting different symphonies
And there's hope in our sound
So don't let me down
Yeah don't let me down, don't let me down
The seconds turn to days and years
The photos document the days we've spent
With childish intent
And all the times I've looked away
In fear that memories will start to fade away
'Cause we all want something that is real
We are all dying just to feel
So promise me one thing
That you'll never forget everything we've done together
Wait for me
We're all going alone but now I've come to see
That we're conducting different symphonies
And there's hope in our sound
So don't let me down
This town I grew to love then hate
Provides me nightly with these empty streets
From different corners of the world
We're going separate ways as we all find our own design
Wait for me
We're all going alone but now I've come to see
That we're conducting different symphonies
And there's hope in our sound
So don't let me down
Yeah don't let me down
The opening lines of Polaris At Noon's "Our Symphonies" expresses the love and hate relationship the singer has with their current location. The town may be filled with empty streets, but the signs and memories provide them with a sense of comfort. The singer reflects on how, even though people come and go, they always have a way of returning when the seasons change. This concept of the cyclical nature of life is further emphasized in the repetition of the chorus, "Wait for me, we're all going alone but now I've come to see, that we're conducting different symphonies, and there's hope in our sound, so don't let me down."
The following verse highlights how people are now headed in different directions but that as humans, we share a common bond. The line "We have the same blood and we won't forget" indicates that through this common bond, we have a sense of unity that should never be lost. The second repetition of the chorus continues to remind us that though we may be living different lives and conducting different symphonies, we still have hope and should not let each other down. The final verse further emphasizes this idea of how people are searching for something "real" and how memories are fading away, reminding listeners that it is important to hold onto what is true.
The song's themes of memories and the cyclical nature of life are woven into its title, "Our Symphonies." The symphony could be seen as a metaphor for life, with each person creating their unique musical piece that is part of the larger, overall masterpiece. The song's emphasis on the importance of unity and not letting one another down is also a theme that is found in the band's other music.

This town I grew to love then hate
I used to love this town, but now I hate it
Provides me nightly with these empty streets
Every night, the streets are empty and it feels lonely
And the signs I need
I see signs that I need to guide me
And even though everyone's gone
Despite everyone leaving
They always come back when the seasons come around
They return when the seasons change
From different corners of the world
People are coming from various parts of the world
We're going separate ways as we all find our own design
Everyone is going their separate ways as they pursue their own goals
But in the greater scheme of things
In the bigger picture
We have the same blood and we won't forget
We are all connected and we won't forget that
Wait for me
Please wait for me
We're all going alone but now I've come to see
We are all on our own journey, but I've realized something
That we're conducting different symphonies
We all have different lives and stories that make up our 'symphony'
And there's hope in our sound
There is hope in our unique stories
So don't let me down
Please don't disappoint me
Yeah don't let me down, don't let me down
I really mean it, don't let me down
The seconds turn to days and years
Time goes by so quickly
The photos document the days we've spent
Photos help keep memories of the past alive
With childish intent
We did things with the innocence of a child
And all the times I've looked away
There were times when I couldn't bear to face what was happening
In fear that memories will start to fade away
I was afraid that I would forget the memories
'Cause we all want something that is real
We all desire something genuine
We are all dying just to feel
We are all yearning for an emotional connection
So promise me one thing
Please make me a promise
That you'll never forget everything we've done together
That you won't forget the memories we've shared
