Worlds Apart
The Generators Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
IÂ'm holding on to the hands of time
This darkest hours got a hold on me
A raging storm is driving me out to the sea
Cause I canÂ't breathe without you
Is this what itÂ's all coming down to
Watching the moment pass me by
In the back of my mind
I hear you call
IÂ'm trying to stay still
But now I fall
We hold our ground like frozen statues
Breaking from pieces
I used to have something
But now I got nothing left to believe in
Cause I canÂ't breathe without you
Is this what itÂ's all coming down to
Watching the moment pass me by
Am I turning back around again
Or am I â??
Going out the morning wind
I feel itÂ's all just slipping away
Cause IÂ'm feeling worlds apart now
Falling further into the darkeneb backround
The foundation keeps on breaking
Every move I take is so painstaking
This condition IÂ'm compounded
Splintered from this new world
That I just founded
Splintered from this new world
That I just founded
Watching it all just fade away
The lyrics of The Generators' song "Worlds Apart" depict a sense of desperation and longing for someone or something that is no longer accessible. The singer feels a deep connection to this person or thing, emphasized by the line "I can't breathe without you." They question if this is the end result, watching moments pass them by and feeling lost.
The reference to holding on to the "hands of time" suggests a struggle against the inevitable passing of time and its impact on their relationship. The line "We hold our ground like frozen statues, breaking from pieces" implies that they are trying to maintain their resolve and strength, but ultimately feel broken and without anything left to believe in. The theme of distance and separation is further emphasized by the repetition of "worlds apart" in the chorus, signifying a growing divide between the singer and what they once held dear.
The lyrics also hint at a sense of self-doubt and uncertainty, as depicted in lines like "Am I turning back around again, or am I going out the morning wind?" This internal conflict contributes to a feeling of everything slipping away, as if the singer is losing their grip on their desired reality.
Overall, "Worlds Apart" showcases the struggle of clinging to something that feels out of reach, the emotional toll it takes, and the realization that it may ultimately fade away.

I'm holding on to the hands of time
I'm desperately clinging to the passage of time, hoping to maintain a sense of control
This darkest hours got a hold on me
The most difficult moments in life have a firm grip on my being
A raging storm is driving me out to the sea
Strong and uncontrollable emotions are pushing me towards uncertainty and vulnerability
Cause I can't breathe without you
You are essential to my well-being, and without you, I feel suffocated
Is this what it's all coming down to
Is this the ultimate consequence or outcome of everything we've experienced
Watching the moment pass me by
Observing life's fleeting moments slipping away, unable to fully grasp or hold on to them
In the back of my mind
Deep within my thoughts
I hear you call
I perceive your presence and your voice resonating within me
I'm trying to stay still
I'm attempting to remain steadfast and composed
But now I fall
Nevertheless, I'm losing my stability and succumbing to my emotions
We hold our ground like frozen statues
We try to maintain our stability and resilience, even if it means remaining motionless
Breaking from pieces
Gradually shattering and fragmenting
I used to have something
There was a time when I possessed something meaningful
But now I got nothing left to believe in
Now, I have lost all faith and trust in anything
Am I turning back around again
Am I reverting to my previous state or mindset once more
Or am I ??
Or am I left in uncertainty and confusion
Going out the morning wind
Drifting away like a gust of morning breeze, dissipating into nothingness
I feel it's all just slipping away
I sense that everything is slipping out of my grasp, fading into oblivion
Cause I'm feeling worlds apart now
I am experiencing a profound sense of disconnect and separation
Falling further into the darkeneb backround
Descending deeper into the obscure and somber aspects of life
The foundation keeps on breaking
The basis or support system of my existence continues to crumble
Every move I take is so painstaking
Every decision or action I make is excruciatingly difficult and meticulous
This condition I'm compounded
This state of being I find myself in is complex and overwhelming
Splintered from this new world
Broken and fragmented as I navigate through this unfamiliar reality
That I just founded
That I have recently discovered or established
Watching it all just fade away
Observing everything gradually disappear or lose its significance
