Giving In
Transit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just let the poison take control
It's destroying everything.
Everything within.
(Time takes it toll on us,
Until we have nothing left to give,
I have nothing left to give.)
It poured into your soul
We're going down on this sinking ship.
Open your eyes this will never happen again.
With words that sink like stones we build the walls to our hearts.
It's just a poor excuse that all, a prison filled with innocents.
The lyrics of Transit's song Giving In are about surrendering to the destructive forces in life that can consume a person's being. The first lines tell the listener that they are giving in and letting the poison take control, which could be referencing anything from addiction to negative thought patterns. The poetry continues to explain that this surrender is destroying everything within and that time takes its toll on individuals until there is nothing left to give. The admission that the singer has nothing left to give is a cry for help, a sign that they have lost hope and are struggling to hold on.
Line by Line Meaning
You're giving in.
You are surrendering.
Just let the poison take control
Allow the harmful substance to manipulate you.
It's destroying everything.
The poison is ruining everything.
Everything within.
Everything inside you is being affected.
(Time takes it toll on us, Until we have nothing left to give, I have nothing left to give.)
The passing of time exhausts us and uses up everything we have to offer.
It poured into your soul
The poison has deeply affected your being.
And drowned the heart within.
The poison has drowned the emotions within you.
We're going down on this sinking ship.
We are slowly sinking into an unpleasant situation.
Open your eyes this will never happen again.
Be vigilant in order to prevent a recurrence of this situation.
With words that sink like stones we build the walls to our hearts.
We use hurtful words to construct barriers around our emotions.
It's just a poor excuse that all, a prison filled with innocents.
It is nothing more than a weak justification, trapping the innocent parties involved.
