Spinning Globe
Slaughter Beach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I have nothing prepared
And I've got sand in my eyes from the greedy race
‘Cus I've been walking for days
I've had to tell everyone it's a waste of time
‘Cus there is nothing to find
And everything's on the line until the end
Everyone knows that there's nothing to show you
I don't wanna let go
I'll do the thinking alone
Everyone knows that there's nothing to show you
I don't wanna let go
I'll do the thinking alone
Everyone knows that there's nothing to show you
I don't wanna let go
I'll do the thinking alone
Everyone knows that there's nothing to show you
I don't wanna let go
I'll do the thinking alone
The lyrics to Slaughter Beach's song Spinning Globe paint a picture of a person who is feeling lost and adrift in the world. The singer is struggling to keep up with the fast pace of life and feels unprepared for what lies ahead. They have sand in their eyes, a symbol of how they feel blinded by the greed and competition that surrounds them. Despite walking for days, they haven't found anything of value, and they're starting to believe that there's nothing to be found.
The singer seems resigned to their fate, telling everyone else that it's a waste of time to search for something that isn't there. They feel like they're constantly under pressure, like everything is on the line until the bitter end. But at least when that end comes, they'll be able to stop pretending and be their true selves.
Throughout the song, the singer repeats the phrase "everyone knows that there's nothing to show you." This could be interpreted as a pessimistic outlook on life, suggesting that there's no point in trying because there's nothing to gain. However, it could also be seen as a call to action - by acknowledging that there's nothing to show, perhaps the singer is freeing themselves from the pressure to conform and allowing themselves to be more creative and adventurous.
Overall, Spinning Globe is a poignant reflection on modern life, with its rapid pace, constant pressure, and seemingly never-ending cycle of searching for something that may not exist.

Time's going fast and I think I care
I feel time is running out, but I'm not sure if it matters
But I have nothing prepared
I'm unprepared for what's to come
And I've got sand in my eyes from the greedy race
The competitive nature of society is blinding me
‘Cus I've been walking for days
I've been tirelessly trying to find direction in life
I've had to tell everyone it's a waste of time
I've been telling others that searching for meaning in life is pointless
‘Cus there is nothing to find
Because there is no ultimate purpose for human existence
And everything's on the line until the end
Everything I do is going to be judged in the end
When you don't have to pretend
At the end of life, I won't have to fake who I am
Everyone knows that there's nothing to show you
Everyone understands that life is ultimately meaningless
I don't wanna let go
I don't want to give up on finding purpose
I'll do the thinking alone
I'll try to figure out the meaning of life on my own, without outside influence
