Revolution Lyrics

There's a quiet revolution in my head
As we take another 365 around this mess
But a quiet revolution in my head
Don't mean anything unless I let it out

Won't let the days form, no night fall
'Til change comes around
Watching the world spin away from us now
Hey

I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you, babe
No
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you, babe

Lost in the universe
We got the modern curse, but we try, we try
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe (with anyone)
With anyone but you, babe

So bring on quiet revolutions in our heads
Keep on fantasizing futures we should try to make
As we're falling through the universe again
Still the jokers and the thieves never fall down

Won't let the days form, no night fall
'Til change comes around
Watching the world spin away from us now
Hey

I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you, babe
No
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you, babe

Lost in the universe
We got the modern curse, but we try, we try
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe (with anyone)
With anyone but you, babe

I just can't
I just can't
I just can't imagine
Spinning around the world with anybody else
No quiet, no quiet, quiet revolutions
Spinning around the world with anybody (hey)

I don't want to
'Round the sun
With anyone but you, babe (with anyone)
With anyone but you, babe
No
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you, babe

Lost in the universe
We got the modern curse, but we try, we try
I don't want to go around the sun
With anyone but you, babe
With anyone but you

What is the Meaning of Revolution?

Exploring themes of personal transformation and intimate connection, this song delves into the quiet revolutions occurring within one's mind. The lyrics suggest an internal struggle for change and growth, marked by the repetition of a "quiet revolution." This introspective journey is juxtaposed with a deep yearning for companionship, as the narrator expresses a desire to navigate life's complexities exclusively with a significant other. The recurring motif of not wanting to "go around the sun" without this person underscores their indispensable role in the narrator's life. Additionally, references to being "lost in the universe" and dealing with a "modern curse" highlight existential concerns and contemporary challenges. Ultimately, the song portrays an intertwining of personal evolution with relational steadfastness, emphasizing that meaningful change is most profound when shared with someone special.
