Underground
Sounds Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let us go back to the time when the underground
Was the place where we all used to hide away
Let us go back to the streets where it all begun
How could I know, it was the last time I saw you?

Seventeen and believed in just anything
Could be true, could be bad, something in between
I recall all those lazy summer nights
And all I knew was the time I spent with you

[Chorus]
I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like it's never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong
I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like it's never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it
(though people say that this is where you belong)

Let us go back to the time when the underground
It used to be our place it belonged to us
And I'd go back if I could but it's not the same
And now I know, it was the last time I saw you?

[Chorus]

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like it's never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong

I could always try to reach you




And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Sounds' song "Underground" take the listener on a journey back in time to a place where the underground was the place where they all used to hide away. The song speaks to the nostalgia that people feel for the past, especially for those who once felt like they belonged somewhere special. The next lines talk about the streets where it all began, and the innocence and naivete of youth. The singer is filled with a sense of regret that they didn't know that it would be the last time they saw their friend or lover.


As the song progresses, a sense of longing and loss pervades the lyrics, as the singer reminisces about lazy summer nights spent with their friend or lover. The chorus emphasizes the power of the past to haunt and influence one's present, and the desire to return to a place that may no longer exist. The singer longs to stay in the past, to remain in the underground where they once belonged.


The song's final lines reinforce the idea that the past is a place that we can never return to, and yet, the desire to do so never truly fades. The singer speaks of trying to reach their friend or lover, of feeling that connection still pulsing through their veins. The song is a powerful tribute to the power of memory, and the pain of loss.
