Further Seems Forever
Punk Goes Pop Vol. 1 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time is standing still
The world as we know it has disappeared
Nothing left for me to hold
Let's start over again

Lock this memory down
All it does is glow
All the wishes fall

Into the sea

Waves come crashing down
Wash away these footprints i never knew
This isn't how it's supposed to be
I'm supposed to follow you

Now I look away
I would have pulled you down if I was there
I feel your light shine down on me
I was blind, but now I see

I was only here to help
I know you see it in me
"Please don't try to understand
Come back here, take my hand"

Time is standing still
The world as we know it has disappeared
Nothing left for me to hold
Let's start over again

Time is standing still
The world as we know it has disappeared
There's nothing left for me to hold

Oh my god take what's left of me
One second seems forever

Oh my god take what's left of me
One second means forever.

Line by Line Meaning

Time is standing still
Everything has come to a halt, and nothing is progressing

The world as we know it has disappeared
The familiar, predictable world has vanished

Nothing left for me to hold
I have lost all that I have held on to

Let's start over again
It's an opportunity to begin anew

Lock this memory down
Seize hold of this memory while it still exists

All it does is glow
Recalling this memory brings back an overwhelming warmth to me

All the wishes fall
The dreams I had were merely wishes, and they have all vanished

Into the sea
Their disappearance meant nothing, and they vanished like drops in an ocean

Waves come crashing down
The waves crashing signify the familiar have vanished quickly

Wash away these footprints i never knew
Tears washed away what I never knew and longed for

This isn't how it's supposed to be
Something was supposed to happen in a different way

I'm supposed to follow you
I was supposed to go on this journey with you

Now I look away
I avoided an opportunity in the past due to fear, and it still haunts me

I would have pulled you down if I was there
I couldn't help you even though I was there

I feel your light shine down on me
I sense the hope and positivity that you are trying to spread

I was blind, but now I see
I can see clearly now that my doubts and worries are lifted

I was only here to help
My sole intention was to provide support and aid

I know you see it in me
I'm proud to display my good will and love towards you

"Please don't try to understand
I'd rather be vague than let you see how badly I am struggling

Come back here, take my hand"
I need you to lead me to safety, for I am too scared to do it alone

Oh my god take what's left of me
God, please take what little there is left of me

One second seems forever
I am dying a slow death, and this pain is eternal

Oh my god take what's left of me
God, please take what little there is left of me

One second means forever.
Every moment with you feels like an eternity, even though it's passing so quickly

Bye bye bye
I'm doing this tonight
You're probably gonna start a fight
I know this can't be right
Hey baby come on
I loved you endlessly
When you weren't there for me
So now it's time to leave and make it alone

I know that I can't take no more
It ain't no lie
I want to see you out that door
Baby bye bye bye

Bye bye Don't want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
You may hate me but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye
Bye bye
Don't want to make it tough
I just want to tell you that I've had enough
It might sound crazy but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye

You just hit me with the truth
Now girl you're more than welcome to
So give me one good reason
Baby come on
I've lived for you and me
And now I really come to see
That life would be much better once you're gone

I know that I can't take no more
Ain't no lie
I want to see you out that door
Baby bye bye bye

Bye bye Don't want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
You may hate me but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye
Bye bye
Don't want to make it tough
I just want to tell you that I've had enough
It might sound crazy but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye

I'm givng up I know for sure
don't' want to be the reason for your love no more
Bye bye
I'm checking out, I'm signing off
Don't want to be the loser and I've had enough

Don't want to be your fool in this game for two
So I'm leaving you behind
(Bye bye bye)
I don't want to make it tough
(Make it tough)
But I've had enough
(Bye bye)
And it ain't no lie

Bye bye Don't want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
You may hate me but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye
Bye bye
Don't want to make it tough
I just want to tell you that I've had enough
It might sound crazy but it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye
