Locked On
dark station Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Invading my own subconscious
To gain my reality
It′s funny how the fear we run from
Is the only thing that can push us
Are we afraid of what we don't see
The world to break free
I′m locked on ready to move now
With this pain
I'm ready for it
And so long to the virtues
If I hurt you I never meant it
Swallowing my own heartache
To change my taste in humanity
Under the stars I walk
A torn thread
But maybe I'm better, I′m better off dead
I′m better off dead
Whatever it takes me
I am the answer
I'm not the lie
The truth ignored and left behind
I am the answer
The truth ignored
The truth inside
Yeah
I never meant it
I′m locked on ready to move now
With this pain
I'm ready for it
And so long to the virtues
If I hurt you I never meant it
I′m locked on
And so long
If I hurt you
I never meant it
And if I hurt you
I never meant it
The song 'Locked On' by Dark Station speaks about the unconscious mind and how it affects our reality. The writer talks about how we tend to shy away from our fears, but it is often the one thing that truly motivates us. We are afraid of facing our true selves and the possibility of uncovering uncomfortable truths. The lyrics suggest that once we embrace these fears, we can discover a freeing truth that can lead us to the right path. The line "I am the answer, the truth ignored" emphasizes the message of acceptance and the importance of trusting oneself.
The writer also examines the concept of pain, and how it can change and shape a person. They admit to swallowing their own heartache, and experiencing a desire to change their outlook on humanity. Despite feeling broken and damaged, they walk under the stars, hoping to find a glimmer of hope in the darkness. The writer's personal struggle with pain is a relatable theme that makes the song emotionally powerful.
In conclusion, 'Locked On' is a thought-provoking song about the internal struggles that we all face. The lyrics are reflective and introspective, provoking the listener to think about the truths that they may be ignoring. The song encourages us to accept and embrace our fears and past experiences, both good and bad, as essential parts of ourselves.

This song is now in my top 4 faves from Dark Station. It's tied with Heros then my other 2 are Ghost and Obvious. Nathans voice in this song was tested with all the notes he had to hit and the new sounds vs their other songs. He delivered! Then the band sounded just as great but let's be honest, they always do! The video is really good as well it's captivating and gives a lot of focus on the singer and the lyrics. I could write pages on why this song is so great haha.
Dark Station
