The cu… Read Full Bio ↴There are two bands and a dance music artist named Westworld:
The current version is an american band formed in 1998 by vocalist Tony Harnell and guitarist Mark Reale. Soon, bassist Bruno Ravel and drummer joined John O'Reilly and they released their first album in 1999. Harnell was the lead vocalist for TNT.
The original Westworld were a British three-piece rock band active in the late 1980s.
Named after the sci-fi film Westworld they were formed in 1986 by former Generation X (band) guitarist Bob "Derwood" Andrews and American vocalist Elizabeth Westwood. The line up was completed by drummer Nick Burton.
Visually the band were styled in a way reminiscent of comic book art and musically they were a blend of classic 1950s rock and roll, glam and punk updated with beatboxes and sequencer. They became an instant success with their debut single Sonic Boom Boy reaching number 11 in the UK charts on February 1987; this was accompanied by a memorable comic-book styled video. They had one more top 40 hit Banana Bamboo which reached number 37 on May 1987. They released three albums before moving to the Arizona desert in 1992 to form the band Moondogg.

Westworld Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I keep letting go of things and people too
Getting closer to the where
But how and when I just don't know till I get there
Lately I really miss you
Yeah I miss you all the time
But it's just my lonely mind
Glass and steel, places to go
Another sidewalk lies beneath me
Still I'm not moving
Of keeping up with nothing to show
The city never sleeps and I'm tired
Standing here in limbo
Waiting for anything
Be the master of my destinations
Can I really have control?
The stream of consciousness I indulge can stop me cold
It's just that when I start to fly
Lately I don't need a reason
For the manic things I do
I go off just to feel emotion
'Cause at least it's something new
Another sidewalk lies beneath me
Still I'm not moving
Glass and steel, places to go
Of playing games with people who cheat
The city never sleeps and I'm tired
It's crazy here in limbo
Everybody tells me what I'm doing wrong
But I'm looking in the mirror
They're the same as me
Not sad or happy
Wanting somewhere to run too
Well you know it's been awhile
I kepp letting go of things and people too
Lately I really miss you
Yeah I miss you all the time
The Westworld song Limbo explores the feeling of being stuck and lost in life while feeling disconnected from the people and places around you. The lyrics describe a sense of restlessness and a desire for something new and exciting. The song also touches on the theme of loneliness and missing someone from your past.
The opening lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the track, with the singer acknowledging that it has been a while since they have felt truly connected to anyone or anything. They feel like they are getting closer to where they want to be, but don't know how or when they will get there. The next verse focuses on the feeling of missing someone, but acknowledging that it's just their "lonely mind" that's making them feel like they should be with that person.
The chorus then brings in the theme of feeling stuck and waiting for something to happen, but not knowing if they have any control over their life. The bridge of the song explores the feeling of wanting to break free and do something spontaneous, but at the same time being scared of the unpredictable nature of life.
Overall, the song Limbo speaks to the universal feeling of being lost and disconnected, while still holding onto a sense of hope that eventually things will fall into place.
Line by Line Meaning
Well you know it's been awhile
It has been a long time since I have seen you
I keep letting go of things and people too
I tend to detach myself from things and people easily
Getting closer to the where
I am getting closer to my destination
But how and when I just don't know till I get there
I am uncertain about how and when I will reach my destination
Lately I really miss you
I have been missing you a lot lately
Yeah I miss you all the time
I miss you constantly
But it's just my lonely mind
It is only my mind that is making me miss you
Feels like I should be with you
It seems like I belong with you
Glass and steel, places to go
I am surrounded by tall buildings and busy streets
Another sidewalk lies beneath me
I am walking on yet another pavement
Still I'm not moving
I feel stalled despite all the commotion around me
Of keeping up with nothing to show
I am struggling to keep pace with the world, yet have nothing to show for it
The city never sleeps and I'm tired
The city continues to be active while I feel exhausted and drained
Waiting for anything
I am waiting for something to happen
Be the master of my destinations
I want to have control over where I am going
Can I really have control?
I am questioning my ability to be in control
The stream of consciousness I indulge can stop me cold
My excessive thinking can leave me stuck and unable to act
It's just that when I start to fly
I am at my best when I am soaring
Lately I don't need a reason
I have been acting impulsively without any real reason
For the manic things I do
I tend to be wild and frenzied at times
I go off just to feel emotion
I act out just to experience some kind of feeling
'Cause at least it's something new
I am attracted to new experiences, even if they are not always good for me
Of playing games with people who cheat
I am tired of dealing with people who are deceitful
It's crazy here in limbo
I feel lost and confused, unsure of where I am headed
Everybody tells me what I'm doing wrong
People are quick to criticize me and point out my faults
But I'm looking in the mirror
I am reflecting on my own actions and behavior
They're the same as me
These people are no different from me
Not sad or happy
I do not feel particularly happy or sad
Wanting somewhere to run too
I am in search of a place to escape to

This song is quite possibly Tony Harnell's and Mark Reale's best song of each of their careers - and that's saying something! R.I.P., Mark. You live on through your music.
