Get Into Action
the HIATUS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Facing a red brick wall, weathered and baked by the sun
Air stream from the drum, strange peace settles over me
Like a lion in a cage, taking a midday nap
Not a clue what to do, who knows what you're gonna get, oh, oh
It's time to get into action
You know it may not be too late
So come here and spin it up
Walk about in heavy summer rain
Everywhere I go there's some sort of pain
Only thing I need is some sort of luck, spin it up
Loud streets, honking horns, everything seems so real
Marks an old district, life on a massive scale
Perched on a red fort top, fading letters barely read
It's time to get into action
Who's gonna tell me what to do
You know it may not be too late
I got to come here and spin it up
Walk about in heavy summer rain
Everywhere I go there's some sort of pain
Only thing I need is some sort of luck, spin it up
Fate has other plans
Say it's alright, say don't live in the past
Just don't wait and go now, let it flow away
It's time to get into action
Who's gonna tell me what to do
You know it may not be too late
So come here and spin it up
Walk about in heavy summer rain
Everywhere I go there's some sort of pain
Only thing I need is some sort of luck, spin it up
Fate has other plans, oh, oh
In the song "Get Into Action" by The HIATUS, the lyrics depict a sense of restlessness and a longing for change and action. The singer finds themselves in an old laundromat, distant from their usual surroundings, facing a weathered red brick wall. As they feel the air stream from the washing machine drum, they experience a strange peace settling over them.
The lyrics compare the singer to a lion in a cage, taking a midday nap, suggesting a feeling of confinement and uncertainty. They admit to not having a clue about what to do next and emphasize the unpredictability of life. There is a sense of urgency as they proclaim that it's time to get into action and seek guidance on what steps to take.
The song also highlights the contrast between the bustling, noisy streets and the singer's desire for something more real and meaningful. The reference to an old district and a red fort top alludes to a historical place, possibly symbolizing the weight of the past. Fading letters and barely legible signs represent the passing of time and the challenges of navigating life's paths.
Throughout the song, the lyrics express a desire for change, a need for luck, and a willingness to take action despite the uncertainty of fate. The repetition of the phrase "spin it up" suggests a desire to break free from inertia and embark on a new journey. The line "Fate has other plans" acknowledges that things may not always go as expected, but the singer remains determined to forge their own path.
Line by Line Meaning
Three thousand miles away, in an old laundromat
Far away from home, in a run-down place filled with memories
Facing a red brick wall, weathered and baked by the sun
Confronting a symbol of time's passing and the harshness of life
Air stream from the drum, strange peace settles over me
As the laundry spins, a peculiar tranquility washes over my troubled mind
Like a lion in a cage, taking a midday nap
Confined like an animal, temporarily escaping the worries of the world
Not a clue what to do, who knows what you're gonna get, oh, oh
Lost and uncertain about the future, unsure of what awaits
Loud streets, honking horns, everything seems so real
Noisy urban surroundings, reminding me of the harsh reality
Marks an old district, life on a massive scale
Witnessing the marks of time and the vibrant nature of city life
Perched on a red fort top, fading letters barely read
Sitting atop a historic monument, struggling to decipher its fading history
Fate has other plans
Unexpected twists await, beyond our control
Say it's alright, say don't live in the past
Assuring oneself that it's okay to move on and not dwell on the past
Just don't wait and go now, let it flow away
Avoid hesitation, seize the present moment, and let go of burdens
Fate has other plans, oh, oh
Unknown forces shape our lives, beyond our comprehension
