Cambodia
The Anthem Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We′ve given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone's lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can′t believe that it happened
Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

Everyone walks around we're like preachers, we're all talk
And when you′ll call my name, I′ll be there, it's what I came here for
Have you seen this girl? Would you take her friend?
Well you know you′ve got 5 minutes to get her
Let's ride this party as we always do
Let′s score our goals

We've given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone′s lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can't believe that it happened
Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

Were just the best I've ever seen you say and I smile
And no one knows how you guys saved my live, and I swear
I don′t need a girl when I got you close, I would give you all I can offer
Play this game together like we′ve always done
We'll win for sure

We′ve given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone's lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can′t believe that it happened
Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

Just let the instinct take all the roads
Just let the rhyme get stuck in the bones
Let's get to the top of the world

We′ve given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone's lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can't believe that it happened
Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

We′ve given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone′s lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can't believe that it happened
Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

We′ve given up because
We were losing our heartbeat
Running out of breath
Everyone's lost control
Crawling on the floor
Can′t believe that it happened




Need a little rest
We will see us this fall

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Anthem's song Cambodia depict a sense of exhaustion and loss of control among a group of people who have been partying hard. They feel like they've given up because they are losing their heartbeat and running out of breath. The reference to crawling on the floor indicates that they are completely drained and can't believe that it has happened. They need a little rest before they can pick themselves up again to face the world. However, despite the exhaustion, they feel a sense of camaraderie and support for one another. They walk around like preachers, offering each other support, and knowing that they always have each other's backs. In the end, they are confident in their abilities to succeed and be victorious, as they always have been.
