Rewind
Slightly Left of Centre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel inspired... to make a new world with your bare hands.
Don't desire... what will beat you in the lonely end.
But then... again... it always seems so hard.
Alarmed... what can we possibly do?

Pre-Chorus
Bitter run, hold on, I think we're onto something now
Speed up, make sure, we're always gonna live it down
Team up, make friends, sometimes it's the only way
Never go alone again and make the changes just today

Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time
So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I

We're up against a wall and just...
Can't seem... to make the sound that we need to believe... in...
And let ourselves.go again.
And then alive...
We're kickin' and screamin' (Don't give in)

Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time
So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I.
Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time
So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I...

Bridge/Solos

/Outro
Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time
So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I.
Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time
So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I...
Can we rewind and bring you back?
For just one more time, just one more time




So we can prepare the final attack
It's the end of the line for both you and I.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Rewind" by Slightly Left of Centre are about taking action before it's too late. The first two lines are about feeling empowered to create positive change, but not being tempted by short-term victories that ultimately lead to a lonely end. The next two lines express the frustration of how difficult it can seem to bring about change, leaving the singer feeling alarmed and unsure of what to do.


The pre-chorus suggests that teamwork and making friends is necessary for achieving the changes we wish to see. This leads to a more positive outlook in the chorus, where the singer asks if we can rewind time and start again with renewed energy and purpose. The final attack mentioned in the chorus likely refers to making the changes we need to make, and doing it together.


The bridge and solos seem to evoke a sense of urgency and intensity, as if time is running out and action is necessary. The outro repeats the chorus, emphasizing the importance of taking action now rather than waiting until it's too late. Overall, "Rewind" is a call to action and a plea for people to work together to make positive change happen.
