Make Some Noise
Tiësto Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just dance for ever
Let’s all together
Cause when the sun goes down
On the empty streets
You’ve gotta hold tide
To watching me

Just dance for ever

Let’s all together
Cause when the sun goes down
On the empty streets
You’ve gotta hold tide
To watching me

I’ve never seen you like this before
You run and shout and you’re screaming for more
You ask me how to open the door
When nobody has a key

I’ve never seen you like this before
You run and shout and you’re screaming for more
You ask me how to open the door
When nobody has a key

I’ll never seen you this before
You run and shout and you’re screaming for more
You ask me how to open the door
When nobody has a key

I’ll never seen you this before
You run and shout and you’re screaming for more
You ask me how to open the door
When nobody has a key

Cause when the sun goes down
On the empty streets
You’ve gotta hold tide
To watching me

Just dance for ever
Let’s all together

Just dance for ever
Let’s all together

Just dance for ever
Let’s all together

Cause when the sun goes down
On the empty streets

You’ve gotta hold tide
To watching me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of “Make Some Noise” by Tiesto, Swanky Tunes, and Ben McInerney delve into the idea of living in a moment, letting loose, and indulging in the freedom of dancing. The song encourages to dance forever and all together, regardless of life’s challenges that might bring us down. With a pulsating beat and energetic vocals, it creates an atmosphere of euphoria and spontaneity. It paints a picture of a night where the streets are empty, and the only thing that matters is the music, the rhythm, and the wildness of dance.

The lines “You ask me how to open the door, When nobody has a key” can be interpreted as a metaphor for the limitation of one’s creativity and the search for ways to express oneself authentically. There is a sense of collective liberation in the song, with the crowds coming together to celebrate the power of music and the joy that dance brings. The repetition of “just dance forever, let’s all together” creates a sense of unity and belonging that is central to the human experience. The lyrics in “Make Some Noise” advocate for living in the moment and cherishing the freedom of being alive.

Just dance for ever
Continue to dance without stopping

Let’s all together
Dance together as a group

Cause when the sun goes down
Because when it gets dark outside

On the empty streets
When the streets are deserted

You’ve gotta hold tide
You need to hold on tight

To watching me
To watch me dance

I’ve never seen you like this before
I’ve never seen you act this way before

You run and shout and you’re screaming for more
You run and shout and are asking for more excitement

You ask me how to open the door
You want to know how to access something

When nobody has a key
When no one knows how to access it

I’ll never seen you this before
I have never seen you behave like this before

Cause when the sun goes down
Because when it gets dark outside

On the empty streets
When the streets are deserted

You’ve gotta hold tide
You need to hold on tight

To watching me
To watch me dance

On the empty streets
When the streets are deserted

You’ve gotta hold tide
You need to hold on tight

To watching me
To watch me dance
