Right Beside You
The Generators Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the evening twilight
A refugee down by the sea
Moving along on and on
By a lonesome highway
And one of these days
IÂ'm gonna set me free, I believe!
I stood in the storm
There IÂ's remain, the sorrow I brought
And I never thought that IÂ'd come in from the rain
You come to terms
You live and you learn
From all the bad breaks
ItÂ's you and you
In the big bad world facing up to the heart aches
But there I am
Right beside you
No one else
Just you and me
In the moment
In the flow of traffic
ItÂ's all getting a bit easier to see
The lyrics of The Generators's song "Right Beside You" depict a journey of self-discovery and resilience. The singer starts off as a displaced individual, feeling like a refugee near the sea, moving aimlessly along a lonesome highway. However, there is a sense of hope ingrained in the lyrics, as the singer declares their belief that they will eventually set themselves free.
The second verse delves deeper into the struggles the singer has faced, describing themselves as weathered and torn in the midst of a storm. They acknowledge the sorrow they have brought upon themselves but express surprise at finding solace and shelter, metaphorically, from the rain. This suggests that they have come to terms with their past mistakes and have learned valuable lessons from them.
The chorus reinforces the idea that the singer is no longer alone in their journey. They emphasize the presence of another person, who is right beside them, offering comfort and support. Despite the challenges they face in the "big bad world," they bravely confront their heartaches and gradually gain clarity and understanding.

How it began, there I am
Reflecting on the start of a journey, acknowledging my presence
In the evening twilight
During a calm and introspective moment
A refugee down by the sea
Feeling displaced and seeking solace near the ocean
Moving along on and on
Continuing forward, never stopping
By a lonesome highway
Traveling along a desolate road
And one of these days
Someday in the future
I'm gonna set me free, I believe!
I will liberate myself and have faith in it
Weathered and torn
Worn out and damaged
I stood in the storm
I endured difficult times
There I's remain, the sorrow I brought
I am still burdened by the sadness I caused
And I never thought that I'd come in from the rain
I didn't expect to find comfort after going through hardships
You come to terms
You accept and reconcile
You live and you learn
Through experiences, you gain wisdom
From all the bad breaks
From all the unfortunate situations
It's you and you
It's just you by yourself
In the big bad world facing up to the heart aches
In the harsh reality, confronting emotional pain
But there I am
However, I am still present
Right beside you
Supporting and standing next to you
No one else
Without anyone else's interference
Just you and me
Only you and I together
In the moment
Fully present and aware
In the flow of traffic
In the midst of life's chaos and movement
It's all getting a bit easier to see
Things are becoming clearer and more understandable
