Tierra
Survive Said The Prophet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say "an eye for an eye", "A cheek for a cheek".
But the heart can never be a fair trade.
If love was all I need.
If love could give me peace.
Well, then tell me.
Tell me what would happen if it leaves.
(If conscience take controls)
Of our stories still untold.
(Pictures black and white)
Kept hidden in my soul.
If these feelings were controlled.
Then what′s the point of our love.
When you lost it in the first place.

It's hard to let you go on Mondays.
But here I am content on Sundays.
Time will tell, time will tell.
It′ll all make sence.

It' all depends on you.
Well, you can take my heart.
Well, you can steal my soul.
You'll never be what I need.
What I need

Love me now, now you don′t.
Hate me, now you will.
Cos reminiscing based off what we missed or what I did or didn′t do for you would prove I am no good for you.
It's true, but take a second.
You′re the one who promised this so called honestly.
But honestly we all knew you had another plan.
Funded by another man.
Or funded by another fun.
I know.
It was funded by another man.
I remember when you stumbled back.
Did it mean our sex ain't half bad.
Compare to what you had.
But there was no true love.
There was no true love.

It′s hard to let you go on Mondays.
But here I am content on Sundays.
Time will tell, time will tell.
It'll all make sence.

It all depends on you.
Well, you can take my heart.
Well, you can steal my soul.
You′ll never be what I need.
What I need

It's hard to let you go on Mondays.
But here I am content on Sundays.
Time will tell, time will tell.
It'll all make sence.

And there she was alone on Mondays.
But here we again on Tuesday.
Time will tell, time well tell.
It′ll all make sence.

It all depends on you.
Well, she can take my heart.
And she can steal my soul.




But can she truly be what I need.
What I need.

Overall Meaning

"Tierra" by Survive Said The Prophet is a mournful yet empowering reflection on love, loss, and self-realization. The lyrics explore the idea that love cannot be an equal trade, as the heart is too valuable. The singer questions what would happen if love were to leave and conscience takes control of their untold stories and hidden emotions. The suggestion is that the loss of love would reveal the truth about their emotional state, complicated by the idea that their feelings are controlled or suppressed. In the end, the question is raised: What's the point of our love when you've already lost it?


The song's emotionally charged lyrics explore the paradox of love and the devastation it can bring when it's no longer present. The line "an eye for an eye, a cheek for a cheek" implies a fair, equal exchange, but the heart can't be traded fairly, especially when it comes to love. The lyrics suggest that love is more valuable than anything else and that it should be treated delicately, with respect and tenderness. The singer seems to feel that their love wasn't enough, that they weren't able to provide the peace they wanted, and questions why they should bother with it after it's been lost.


Tierra is a deeply introspective song filled with regret and sadness, yet there is also something inherently inspiring about it. The song is a celebration of self-realization, and of coming to terms with what you really need. The final verse suggests that there is someone new in the picture, and that the singer is unsure if they can provide what they truly need. The chorus remains a solemn reminder of the value of self-love and respect. "You'll never be what I need, what I need" implies an understanding that no one but yourself can provide the kind of love and acceptance that you need. In the end, the singer seems to suggest that the search for true love is an ongoing journey, one that takes time, patience, and a whole lot of introspection.

2019 anyone?

[Lyrics]
Whenever you are feeling lonely and afraid
The time will pass away on you
So many times you feel like losing to the pain
And you try to fade away

Kurayami no naka kirisakareteta
Kioku o yomigaerasete
Yoru ga akete mo nemurenai mama
Kizuato o nokoshiteiru no

Tatta hitotsu no omoide mo marumete nagesutete

We can't find you anything now!!
There's nothing to be seen
We can't find you anything now!!
I will never, never, never, never, never say it
Tell me when you will come back
Will wait 'til the time is over
Tell me when you will come back
Never, never, never never never say it

Now you remember when you were afraid alone
And you will start it over again
You understand that you can't change, the time is gone
But it is nothing you can break

Tsumikasaneteta mono ga kuzurete
Katachi ga naku naru mae ni
Sabishikunai to kidzukenai kara
Ashiato o keshite miru no

Tojikometeta kotoba de mo todoitekureru nara

Hello, what's going on my friend??
You can always count on me
Hello, what's going on my friend??
I will take it, take it, take it, take it, take it over
Goodbye to the painful days
Maybe I can see you later
Goodbye to the painful days
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, over

You'll decide
It may be hard to achieve
And memories might never let you go
You'll believe
If you could leave it somewhere in your heart
Today, it will be with you

Taisetsuna mono wa koko ni aru noni kimi to boku dake ga
Ima, mada mada mada mada tookute
Itsuka nakushita nani ka o kakaete soko ni iku no wa
Boku de wa nakute kimi dakara
Boku de wa nakute kimi dakara

We can't find you anything now!!
There's nothing to be seen
We can't find you anything now!!
I will never, never, never, never, never say it
Tell me when you will come back
Will wait 'til the time is over
Tell me when you will come back
I will never, never, never, never, never say it
