Until it's over
Solar Fake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been to your private hell
And I thought it's our farewell
But to keep up the will is a gift and a curse and it's treason
And our dreams will divide
And all thinking gets out of the light
We can't reach each others hand unless we fall

We're beautiful – as long as we believed we're getting closer
But as we grew closer we're unsuitable to live the perfect life
And just get older until it's over

We're becoming weaker, could be time to admit our defeat
But there's so much left undone, but no 2nd chances
Time is passing us by and it doesn't seem right
That you're dying in my arms and leave me behind

Who cast the first stone into the water so that the waves would rise and rise
And tear ourselves away from home




It doesn't matter what we do and what we feel or say
You're looking far too frail...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Solar Fake's song "Until It's Over" explore the complicated emotions that arise when a once-strong relationship begins to falter. The singer starts by acknowledging that they have been to their partner's "private hell" and that they had thought their relationship was ending. They then sing about the difficulty of maintaining the will to keep the relationship alive, as it can feel like both a gift and a curse, and ultimately lead to betrayal. The next verse addresses how dreams and desires can divide people, making it impossible to bridge the gap between them without falling. The chorus highlights the beauty of their relationship when they believed they were getting closer, but how they've become unsuitable for the perfect life they thought they wanted, and are now just getting older until the end.


As the song continues, the singer laments that they are becoming weaker and considers admitting defeat. However, there is still so much left undone, and they will not get a second chance to make it right. The passing of time is seen as unfair, especially when a loved one is dying in their arms and leaving them behind. The final verse questions who started the process of the relationship's decline, and how it was inevitable that they would be torn away from their sense of home. Despite all the effort they put into the relationship, it doesn't matter what they do, say or feel, as their partner is looking "far too frail."


Overall, the theme that runs throughout "Until It's Over" is the fragility of relationships, and the pain that comes when they begin to weaken. It paints a powerful and poignant picture of the struggle to keep a relationship alive, and the realisation that sometimes love alone is just not enough.


Line by Line Meaning

I've been to your private hell
I've seen the deepest, darkest parts of you


And I thought it's our farewell
I thought our goodbye was final


But to keep up the will is a gift and a curse and it's treason
Holding onto hope can be both helpful and harmful, and sometimes it feels like betrayal


And our dreams will divide
Our aspirations will no longer align


And all thinking gets out of the light
Our thoughts become clouded and unclear


We can't reach each others hand unless we fall
We need to hit rock bottom before we can help each other again


We're beautiful – as long as we believed we're getting closer
We were attractive when we thought we were making progress


But as we grew closer we're unsuitable to live the perfect life
As we got more intimate, we realized we're not perfect for each other


And just get older until it's over
We'll continue to age until it's all said and done


We're becoming weaker, could be time to admit our defeat
We're losing strength and may need to concede


But there's so much left undone, but no 2nd chances
There are still things we wanted to accomplish, but there's no opportunity for a do-over


Time is passing us by and it doesn't seem right
Time keeps moving and it's unsettling


That you're dying in my arms and leave me behind
You're passing away while in my embrace and I'm left alone


Who cast the first stone into the water so that the waves would rise and rise
Who started the chain reaction that caused all of this chaos?


And tear ourselves away from home
And separate ourselves from our safe haven


It doesn't matter what we do and what we feel or say
Our actions, emotions, and words are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things


You're looking far too frail...
You appear incredibly delicate and weak
