ANBERLIN

- Godspeed Lyrics

Burning down Neverland, scatter the ashes
White lines, black tar, the matches
Is this another dead by misadventure?
Tell me what you got, what you really got, hey, hey

We'll rest in our graves
Lexington, course your veins
Sleepers can't just wake the dead
When needles and lovers collapse on guilty beds

Fall asleep
Don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

They lied when they said that the good die young
They lied when they said the good die young, whoa, oh, oh, oh
They lied when they said the good die young
Stay with me, stay with me tonight

Burning down bridges now, scatter the ashes
Godspeed to all you're after
Is this a life left just to remember?
Tell them who you were, who you really were, hey, hey
Kill yourself slowly over time
Fashion statement suicide
She's still asleep in the Chelsea hotel
Bad turns to worse and the worse turns into hell

Fall asleep
Don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

God saved the eyes that are dim tonight
They lied when they said the good die young, whoa, oh, oh, oh
They lied when they said the good die young
Stay with me, stay with me tonight

Whoa, oh, oh, oh

They lied when they said the good die young, whoa, oh, oh, oh
They lied when they said the good die young
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
They lied when they said the good die young, whoa, oh, oh, oh
They lied when they said the good die young
Stay with me, stay with me tonight

What is the meaning behind Godspeed lyrics?


When we take a closer look at its interpretation, Anberlin's 'Godspeed' takes a deep dive into the original nature of the self-destructive people, and it raises the question whether dying young is really a sign of being good. The song's narrating pictures very vividly the negative lifestyles and one’s craving for company and comfort when facing the hardships coming both from within and without. The words of Godspeed mostly veer towards one feeling persons’ emotions: angst, heartbreak, despair, reflection and nostalgia. On the other hand, the music is accompanied by very pronounced themes of life's fragility and endings, addiction and self-destruction, loss and yearning. The song's lyrics are laced with mentions of drug intake, self-inflicted injuries, and allusions to death and suicide, which are classified as "adult" materials. Such aspects call for a restricted rating as they might be inappropriate for kids below 17 years old without parents' supervision.
