Dragon
Sadko & Matisse & Martin Garrix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We were never meant to be quiet

I'm on the edge got to get away
I've seen it all before
I'm going down like a renegade
And I'm still begging for more

This is the last time I tell you to open your eyes
The city is sleeping, the monster's outside
The fire is burning, there's nowhere to hide
And I won't say it anymore

Break through the silence
I can feel the energy rising
Turn up the sirens
We were never meant to be quiet

Break through the silence
I can feel the energy rising
Turn up the sirens
We were never meant to be quiet

There are lights that'll lead the way
To what we're searching for
A million miles from yesterday
And it's right here on the floor

This is the last time I tell you to open your eyes
The city is sleeping, the monster's outside
The fire is burning, there's nowhere to hide
And I won't say it anymore

Break through the silence
I can feel the energy rising
Turn up the sirens
We were never meant to be quiet

Break through the silence
I can feel the energy rising




Turn up the sirens
We were never meant to be quiet

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Dragon" by Sadko, Matisse & Martin Garrix convey a sense of rebellion and a desire to break free from constraints. The opening lines, "We were never meant to be quiet, I'm on the edge gotta get away," suggest a feeling of restlessness and a need to escape. The singer feels as though they have experienced everything before and are ready to venture into the unknown, even if it means going against the norm.


The chorus emphasizes the need to break through the silence and embrace the rising energy. It speaks to the idea of not being silenced or muted, but rather letting one's voice be heard and making a statement. The repeated line, "We were never meant to be quiet," reinforces the theme of defying societal expectations and embracing one's true nature.


The second verse adds an element of hope and discovery, with the mention of lights leading the way and the sense of possibility in finding what we're searching for. It highlights the idea that sometimes, what we're seeking is right in front of us, yet it requires openness and awareness to recognize it.
