Rollercoaster
Two Years Later Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walk away, and let the feelings die.
Every word that you can say, and every word that i can say
Means nothing unless they're the last.
Never say that you apologize,
Until after those feelings subside.
Walk on coals and stand on glass
Baby was it meant to last the night?
It never will
We'll scream and shout and wonder how
But are you happy now?
We'll play this game and feel the same
But are you happy now?
Swallow pride and let sleeping dogs lie
In an hour, in an evening I
Have thought a thought of letting go,
And a million saying no
I love you so, love you so
We'll scream and shout and wonder how
But are you happy now?
We'll play this game and feel the same
But are you happy now?
The song "Rollercoaster" by Two Years Later is about the ups and downs of a relationship. The lyrics describe a couple who have reached a breaking point and need to decide whether to hold on or let go. The first verse encourages letting go of negative feelings and walking away from the situation. The second verse explores the idea of swallowing one's pride and letting go of past grievances in order to move forward. The chorus questions whether the other person is happy with the current state of their relationship, despite the emotions and back-and-forth nature of it all.
