Right Track
The Queenstons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Admiring shapes beneath me
Caught my eye glowing brightly from a distance
What on earth could that be
Do you call yourself stronger
When you avoid it altogether
Just hold out a little longer
You're on the right track
So rock on
And we won't turn back
So rock on
It was you and we shared a silent moment
And I crossed the bridge on my way back home and
Now I'll never know you
Right now I barely know a thing
Do you call yourself stronger
When you avoid it altogether
Just hold out a little longer
And overcome the destroyer
You're on the right track
So rock on
And we won't turn back
So rock on
The Queenstons's song Right Track seems to be about the struggle of self-improvement and moving forward in life despite the obstacles that come along. The opening line, "Back from sending a little part of me away," could be interpreted as letting go of a part of oneself that was holding them back or hindering their growth. The lines "Admiring shapes beneath me/Caught my eye glowing brightly from a distance/What on earth could that be" suggest that the singer is seeing something new and intriguing and possibly inspiring.
The chorus encourages perseverance and determination, reminding the listener that they are on the right track and to keep going. The lines "Do you call yourself stronger/ When you avoid it altogether/Just hold out a little longer/ And overcome the destroyer" acknowledges that sometimes it's easier to avoid or give up, but true strength comes from facing and overcoming challenges.
The second verse brings up the idea of missed opportunities and how we never truly know what we have until it's gone. The line "Now I'll never know you/Right now, I barely know a thing" could be about someone lost or a situation that has passed, leaving the singer with regret.
Overall, the song seems to be a motivational message to keep pushing towards your goals and not give up, even when it seems impossible.

Back from sending a little part of me away
Returning from a journey where I left a part of myself behind
Admiring shapes beneath me
Looking down at the beautiful shapes from above
Caught my eye glowing brightly from a distance
Something distant caught my attention by shining brightly
What on earth could that be
I wonder what that could possibly be
Do you call yourself stronger
Do you believe you are strong
When you avoid it altogether
When you choose to completely avoid a situation
Just hold out a little longer
Keep going and don't give up yet
And overcome the destroyer
And defeat the thing that is trying to destroy you
You're on the right track
You are doing the right thing
So rock on
Keep going and don't stop
And we won't turn back
And we won't give up or go back to where we started
It was you and we shared a silent moment
We had a moment of quiet together
And I crossed the bridge on my way back home and
On my way home, I crossed a bridge
Now I'll never know you
I will never get to know you better
Right now I barely know a thing
At this moment, I don't know much
