End Of The Line
Tidal Wave Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

This time you fucked up so much bigger than before
Once you got paralyzed came knocking on my door
I used to help you with the problems that you had
Go on get out of here you filthy parasite

I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Please don't bring me down
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
Go on blame yourself

I told you several times what it does to you
It messes up your head and puts you in a trance
Relationships and friends will turn their backs on you
Now you're alone and got no one to turn to

Now you're dead
Now you're dead
Now you're dead
Won't come alive no more
Now you're dead
Now you're dead
Now you're dead
Won't come alive no more

You're dead, you're dead
Wasted all your life
You're dead, you're dead
Up there in the sky
You're dead, you're dead
Wasted all your life

You're dead, you're dead
It's the end of the line

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "End of the Line" by Tidal Wave are about a person who has repeatedly messed up and made mistakes. The singer has tried to help this person in the past with their problems but they have become too much, and the person has become a parasitic burden on the singer's life. The song speaks to the theme of being able to acknowledge one's mistakes and how situations may become too much for a person to handle.

The first verse of the song talks about the individual's last mistake. The fact that they messed up is something that the individual has done before, but this time it was on a much larger scale. The line "Once you got paralyzed came knocking on my door" refers to the person asking for help after failing to solve their own problems. The chorus suggests that the singer is alive and doesn't want the individual to bring their life down. The person is being blamed for their own mistakes, and it's implied that they need to take responsibility for their actions if they want to turn their life around.
