Born Again
X-Crash Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They told we were the ones to blame
I don't believe those lies
Please give me back my smile
For one last time and night
Let me hold you in the light
Time passes and we're not the same
The world expects you to
Grow forever young too
Indeed we'll become the same
In the name of this big game
And how is it to be born again
To be again where we began
When we first met, my friend.
Like when we were only friends
When love wasn't real
When at first glance we saw
A light shinin' through
We need to start anew
From the ashes we'll be born again
Not dull as the world
We'll be something else
We'll start a new journey
Looking for what we were
And how is it to be born again
To be again where we began
When we first met, my friend
In the song "Born Again" by X-Crash, the lyrics convey a longing for a return to a more innocent and joyful time. The first verse challenges the notion that time is constant and suggests that society has propagated lies, shifting the blame onto the individual. The singer refuses to believe these lies and pleads to have their smile restored, symbolizing a lost sense of happiness and contentment. They yearn for one last moment of purity and clarity, desiring to hold onto someone dear in the light.
As the song progresses, the second verse reflects on the passing of time and the feeling of inadequacy that comes with aging. The pressures of society to stay forever young weigh heavily on the singer, making them feel insignificant. However, the lyrics also suggest that eventually, we all become the same and conform to societal expectations in this big game called life.
The chorus of the song poses the question of what it would be like to be born again, to go back to the beginning when the singer first met their friend. The mention of being "only friends" and love not being real suggests a return to a time before romantic complications and the complexities of relationships. There is a longing for the simplicity and purity of that initial encounter when a light was shining through.
Overall, "Born Again" is a reflective and introspective song that explores the desire to reclaim lost innocence and start anew.

They told us time was the same
They tried to convince us that time is constant and unchanging
They told we were the ones to blame
They placed the blame on us, making us feel responsible
I don't believe those lies
I refuse to accept those falsehoods
Please give me back my smile
I long to regain my happiness and joy
For one last time and night
Just one more moment, one more night
Let me hold you in the light
Allow me to appreciate you in a positive and radiant way
Time passes and we're not the same
As time goes on, we undergo changes and evolve
Youth passes by and I feel lame
As we grow older, I feel inadequate and unfulfilled
The world expects you to
Society places expectations upon you
Grow forever young too
To maintain a youthful appearance and demeanor indefinitely
Indeed we'll become the same
In reality, we will eventually become alike
In the name of this big game
In the pursuit of success and conformity
And how is it to be born again
What is the experience of starting anew?
To be again where we began
Returning to the place where we first started
When we first met, my friend
The time when our friendship initially began
Like when we were only friends
Reminiscing about a simpler time when we were merely friends
When love wasn't real
When our relationship wasn't yet defined by deep affection
When at first glance we saw
When we first noticed and recognized each other
A light shinin' through
A radiant presence that captivated us
We need to start anew
We must embark on a fresh beginning
From the ashes we'll be born again
We will rise again, revitalized, from difficult times
Not dull as the world
Uninteresting and mundane like the world around us
We'll be something else
We will become unique and extraordinary
We'll start a new journey
We'll commence an exciting, unfamiliar path
Looking for what we were
Seeking to rekindle the aspects of ourselves that we've lost
And how is it to be born again
What does it truly mean to have a fresh start?
To be again where we began
Returning to the beginning, where everything started
When we first met, my friend
Reflecting on the initial encounter that established our friendship

Moon crown
[Verse 1]
I'd give my heart to this place
I'd give my soul or whatever it takes, never run away
I've got enough angels to storm the gates, I'm not afraid
Behold the brave, not have it no other away
I miss the emergence and these moments of you
The mere reflection of me, that mirror can't change its view
[Chorus]
So until those rivers run out
It runs through me
Wherever you are
I'll bะต there
We carry on (Wะต carry on)
Born again
[Verse 2]
I'd give my heart to this place (I'd give my heart to this place)
I'd give my whole soul and whatever it takes, never run away
And I'd relive this just to see your face again
I know that you'd do the same, born again
[Bridge]
Just tell me what I need to do
I'd die and come back just to love you
Just tell me, I'm begging you
Just tell me what I need to do, oh
