Action
Program The Dead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wasted my life for the slogan,
For a land so lost and broken
Heavy like a word that goes unspoken,
Hit me now,
Cuz I'm wide open

Don't give me words
Give me some action,
Don't give me words
Give me some action now

Ready to come, come and get me?
Pick up the dollhouse pieces
Of my injured body.
This ain't like nothin' you've seen
On TV
Free to touch me, but really,
How free are we?

I need your sex and war
I am the love so pure
The one you're waiting for,

Love rain down now,
Love rain down,
Love rain down on me,




Love rain down.
Love rain down...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Program The Dead's song Action portray a narrator who feels that they have wasted their life for a broken and lost land. The heaviness of this realization is likened to the weight of an unspoken word. The singer is calling out for action rather than empty words, indicating a desire for actual change and improvement rather than just talk. There is a sense of vulnerability in the line "hit me now, cuz I'm wide open", as the singer seems to be offering themselves up for change or reckoning.


The second verse of the song portrays the singer as someone who has been injured in some way, needing to be picked up and put back together. They question the idea of freedom, suggesting that perhaps it is not as absolute as it may seem. The song concludes with a plea for love to rain down, emphasizing the need for connection and unity.


The lyrics of Action are open to interpretation, but they seem to speak to a wider societal commentary on the need for action and change in the face of brokenness and disillusionment.

A little late for Season 1. A little early for Season 2. Just the right time for promotions! Also, that Ryukwoo shout made by Heechul made me laugh. 🤣🤣🤣
