Time To Fly
Syntax (2004 - Meccano Mind) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's time to fly
Soon we must die
We are running dry
We are always high

And I never wanted to say this
You used to make my life bliss
And I never wanted to see this
I see your disguise along with your lies

Oceans slowly rise time to fly

Time to go to sleep it's dawn
Wrapped in essential smokeable lawn

Oceans slowly rise... time to fly

You don't understand what life is
Your time here is only crisis
You need to evolve
You need to resolve
It's time to fly





Oceans slowly rise... time to fly

Overall Meaning

The song "Time to Fly" by Syntax (2004 - Meccano Mind) talks about the inevitability of death and the need to take action before it's too late. The phrase "time to fly" can be interpreted as a metaphorical way of saying that it's time to move forward or take action. The first line of the song, "it's time to fly, soon we must die," sets the somber tone for the song, highlighting the fact that death is inevitable and that we must make the most of our time before it arrives.


The next two lines, "we are running dry, we are always high," can be interpreted in a few different ways. On one hand, they could be referencing the idea that we're using up the Earth's resources at an alarming rate and that we're constantly seeking pleasure or relief through substances such as drugs or alcohol. Alternatively, they could be a commentary on the fleeting nature of life and the desire to make the most of each moment.


The second verse of the song focuses on a personal relationship and the realization that someone the singer cared about has been dishonest. The lines "and I never wanted to say this, you used to make my life bliss, and I never wanted to see this, I see your disguise along with your lies," suggest a feeling of betrayal and disappointment.


Overall, the song is a reminder that life is short and that we need to make the most of the time we have. It also highlights the importance of honesty and authenticity in relationships.
