New World
Sleep Good Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time will take it away from you
And leave you hoping its not true
I'd like you to remember me
But I know you'll forget
This life we used to live
But this new world can't insure it will

Care if I change a life
It won't care what I leave behind
It won't care when I say goodbye
oh no, no, no

My friends say they don't matter now
There's nothing they won't think about
Its left some wanting out
Left some wanting out
Its alright, I've felt that many times
But every time I do
I realize I get through
But this new world can't insure that it will

Care if I change a life
It won't care what I leave behind




It won't care when I say goodbye
Oh no no no

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sleep Good's song New World convey a sense of loss and a fear of being forgotten. The first two lines speak to the inevitability of time taking everything away, leaving behind only memories that may eventually fade. The singer acknowledges that they would like to be remembered but recognizes that they will likely be forgotten in the grand scheme of things. They lament the loss of the life they used to live, but recognize that the new world they find themselves in offers no guarantees. The chorus drives home this point, emphasizing that the new world won't care if they change a life, what they leave behind, or when they say goodbye.


The second verse delves deeper into a sense of detachment and isolation. The singer's friends have become indifferent, leaving some feeling like they want out. The singer admits to feeling this way themselves, but also recognizes that they have persevered before and will likely do so again. However, the same uncertainty remains, as the new world provides no guarantees that they will be able to weather whatever challenges come their way.


Overall, the lyrics of New World speak to the transience of life and the fear of being forgotten. The singer acknowledges that change is inevitable, but also expresses a sense of fear and uncertainty about what the future holds. The chorus drives home the point that the new world offers no assurances, leaving the listener with a sense of foreboding.
