Line 1
The Swing Kids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Importance severed from this twisted life. Everything evolves, at the same time, numbs.
Just let me feel. Just let me touch. Just let me love. Just let me live.
We've all been fucked up. Twisted lives that we all live.
Twisting the lines that we all take. Sooner or later, we will all die.




Overall Meaning

The Swing Kids song, "Line 1," is a reflection on the struggles and difficulties of modern life. The lyrics suggest that the importance of things has been lost in the chaos and confusion of everyday existence. The line "Importance severed from this twisted life" implies that the meaning and value of life has become disconnected and fragmented. The lyrics go on to describe the numbing effect of this disconnectedness, and the desire to feel alive through love and touch.


The second verse acknowledges that everyone has experienced pain and hardship, and that we all make our own paths in life. However, the song also suggests that this is a lonely journey, and that death is the one thing we all have in common. Ultimately, the lyrics seem to call for a reconnection with the things that make life meaningful, to feel and experience fully before it is too late.


Line by Line Meaning

Importance severed from this twisted life. Everything evolves, at the same time, numbs.
The significance of existence is lost in this distorted reality where everything progresses but also loses its impact over time.


Just let me feel. Just let me touch. Just let me love. Just let me live.
All I ask for is to experience the sensations that make life worthwhile and have the freedom to live it as I choose.


We've all been fucked up. Twisted lives that we all live.
We all have our scars and traumas that have shaped the flawed lives we lead.


Twisting the lines that we all take. Sooner or later, we will all die.
We each navigate our own path in life, but it is inevitably twisted, and we will all meet the same end.
