Sooner or Later
S.A.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now

(So you're sad)
About the moment you lost your love (Damn)
You couldn't see her leaving
(You were gassed)
And that's sucks don't it cause
God yanked the rug and holding your heart will not help you breathe

Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now

It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it

(So you're sad)
And you should own it and you fucked up (Damn)
You thought that you were the team
(You were gassed)
And now you're a opponent who wears your gloves (Damn)
A nightmare just ate up your dreams

Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now

It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it

(So you're sad)
Could have had so much done you blew it off (Damn)
Your chance is passing you by
(You were gassed)
Time waits for no one
And it cost for a lost
Because made joke should you laugh or cry

Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now

It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it




It's over believe it
It's over believe it

"From The Album of the Same Name" is one of my favorite albums of all time! It's so full of happy teenage memories for me that I actually restrain myself from listening to it, to avoid "erasing" the memories by replacing them with new ones. I found my 1st copy of this album in a discount store in 1982 for $0.88 and I got it for "Magic". I played the crap out of that copy and have found other replacement copies since then, along with a CD reissue that included "Just Let Me Be".

Pilot is an amazing band!
I know that the phrase 'they deserve more recognition' is tossed around, but I definetly think it is warranted in Pilot's case, even though I know they have had their share in the earlier days.

Maykol Guevara

The best band forever!!
