Up in the Air
noredirect/Thirty Seconds to Mars Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been up in the air
Out of my head
Stuck in a moment of emotion I've destroyed
Is this the end I feel?
Up in the air
Fucked up our life
All of the laws I've broken, loves that I've sacrificed
Is this the end?
I wrap my hands around you neck so tight with love, love

A thousand times I've tempted fate
A thousand times I've played this game
A thousand times that I have said today, today, today

I've been up in the air
Lost in the night
I wouldn't trade out for you lies you lost for my life
Is this the end
You were the love of my life, the darkness, the light
This is a portrait of the tortured you and I
Is this the, is this the, is this the end?
I wrap my hands around you neck so tight with love, love, love

A thousand times I've tempted fate
A thousand times I've played this game
A thousand times that I have said today, today, today
A thousand times I've tempted fate
A thousand times I've played this game
A thousand times that I have said today, today, today

I've been up in the air
Is this the end I feel?
Up in the air
Chasing a dream so real
I've been up in the air (I wrap my hands around you neck)
Is this the end I feel
Up in the air
Chasing a dream, Chasing a dream

Take no more
Take no more
Take no more
I'll take no more

A thousand times I've tempted fate (I'll take no more)
A thousand times I've played this game (I'll take no more)
A thousand times that I have said today, today, today (I'll take no more)

Today (I wrap my hands)
Today (hands around)
Today (your neck)
Today (with love, love)
Today (I'll wrap my hands)
Today (around your neck)
Today (with love, love)
Today





I'll wrap my hands around your neck
I'll wrap my hands around your neck with love, love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Up in the Air" by Thirty Seconds to Mars depict a sense of regret and remorse for past actions, as the singer reflects on the consequences of their decisions. The lines "Stuck in a moment of emotion I've destroyed" and "Fucked up our life / All of the laws I've broken, loves that I've sacrificed" suggest that the singer has made mistakes and paid a steep price for them. The repetition of the phrase "Is this the end?" further emphasizes the singer's uncertainty about their future and the uncertainty of the situation.


The chorus of the song is particularly intriguing, as it contains the line "I wrap my hands around your neck so tight with love, love." This seems contradictory to the regretful tone of the song, as the stranglehold could be seen as an act of violence or frustration. However, it can also be interpreted as a desperate plea for control and connection, as the singer tries to hold onto something or someone they love, even if it means taking drastic measures.


Overall, the lyrics of "Up in the Air" explore complex emotions and contradictions, with a balance of regret, uncertainty, and desperation.

Does the XIM4 with mouse and keyboard work just like on PC? Can you set the DPI and Sensitivity? Is there input delay? I'm considering to buy one since I really better likes to play with mouse and keyboard, and CoD is almost dead on PC.
