In Flames: Trigger Meaning
Trigger Lyrics
Have we lost the spark or a guide?
What's the latest on the screen?
Can't be too late to turn around
I need all the help from you
I need to find
Something to blame for a long lost time
[Pre-Chorus:]
I am running from something that...
-
What about the green and red... our days pass by, a mock to the stock market - news on the tv... could be?
-
"Have we lost the spark or a guide?
What's the latest on the screen?
Can't be too late to turn around
I need all the help from you"
Have we lost our knowledge on how to live?
What is the media saying today?
We can turn this around, we can live on our own
But we must confide in each other.
"I need to find
Something to blame for a long lost time"
There is something that has caused this thought in our society, what is it?
"I am running from something that I don't know
I am searching for something, which way to go?
I am trying to separate what's real
I'm running in a wheel"
I am keeping away from unknown things
I search for a 'right' way to live
Trying to figure out what is real and surreal
It is a never ending circle, a wheel.
"Is it dark or is it bright?
What's the latest on the screen?
Please tell me my name
I haven't checked it today"
Is my future dark or bright?
What are they trying to feed us today?
Tell me my alias, it seems to change by the day.
"From green to red our days pass by
Waiting for a sign to tell us why
Are we dancing all alone?"
Our days go by like sand in an hourglass, never stopping
We wait for them to tell us why they go so quick
Are we on our own?
"Collect some stars to shine for you
And start today 'cause there's only a few
A sign of times my friend"
Find a way to shine, not artificially,
And find that way today, there aren't many days left
A sign of times my friend
"My friend avoid infinity
Are you for real?"
Stay away from what is said to last forever
Are you for real (asking after person didn't avoid 'infinity')
"Just scratch the surface
And you will find
Something to blame for a long lost time"
You keep searching, but the answer is closer than you think, don't second guess
And you will find
What the cause of all your lost time truly is. -
"from green to red our day passed by, we were waiting for a sign to tell us why are we dancing all alone"- we need to live life to the fullest, and enjoy those we love while they're here, because tomorrow, they could be gone...
they also use TV as an example of one of those things we waste out numbered days on "whats latest on the screen...i need to find something to blame for long lost time...."
Another thing present in the lyrics is that we may waste time looking for something, chasing a goal or something we think we need, and not enjoying what or who we have... -
It's about taking your part in the world quick because life isn't that long(EX: the chorus)
