Little By Little Lyrics
we dont claim to be perfect but were free
we dream our dreams alone with no resistance
fading like the stars we wish to be
what i just said
but my god woke up on the wrong side of his bed
and it just dont matter now
we gave you everything you ever dreamed of
little by little
wheels of your life their slowly fallin of
little by little
you have to give it all in all your life
i ask myself why
your really here
i know that that sounds foolish but its true
the day has come
and now youll have to accept
the life inside your head we give to you
what i just said
but my god just woke up on the wrong side of his bed
and it just dont matter now
we gave you everything you ever dreamed of
little by little
the wheels of your life there slowly falling off
little by little
you have to give it all in all your life and all the time
i ask myself why
your really here
hey!
(solo)
(repeat chorus)
i'm not sure but it seems like it has something to do with God's and creation... and how the human race has taken everything for granted and "little by little" screwed things up... and left wondering why we are even here
i could be waaayyy off but ya never know, thats how i see it
I actually somewhat agree with you.
I actually somewhat agree with you.
I think it is Noel being existential, 'We the people fight for our exsistence' i think that is people not knowning why they are here and question their exsistence, that was quite obvious. 'fading like the stars we wish to be ' is about mortality and how we seem important but in the end we are all just dust.
'Ididnt mean what i just said but my god woke up on the wrong side of his bed ' I think that is about repenting his religion, he may have said he hated god, for spliting up his relationships or some other tragedy, so he is sorry but still places the blame partly on god. And from questioning god he has realised there isn't much he can do 'you have to give it all in all your life ' but be the best he can be. 'the day has come and now youll have to accept the life inside your head we give to you ' Might be about religio and death aswell "You have to give it all in all your life and all the time ' is also about being a good person but how hard it is.
i think, but i'm just an oasis fan with nothing better to do than over analyze songs
I just don't understand why he uses "we"...."we gave you everything you ever dreamed of" who's "we"?
we the people who made you who you are. who else gives you everything you ever wanted. loving parents, god(s), rich spouses, true friends, entertainers! though giving usually assumes there are no strings attached, right? i think it's implied that someone took the other for granted. people commented about divorce, so maybe that's it. who knows but noel gallagher!

seems he's pondering existence in general. may just be a personal experience that inspired the song, but it masks the true question behind everyone's mind. we're born, we live, we die. while we live, what are we searching for? why did god (or whoever created us) design this circle of life? every action and reaction is part of this same cycle. to live, ask the question, and find the answer. every mystery has an answer. but ultimately, we all seek a perfect world. but if perfection is the answer, in reality, no one person is perfect, and no two people are the exact same.. so the fallacy is we feel pain so we may know true happiness. but is pure happiness having everyone be exactly the same and die side by side (living beings), or having one person left alone in the world and live forever (godly beings)? it still begs the question lol!!! it's like the saying, "what feels worse, being kicked in the balls, or punched in the boob?" now i feel like i'm rambling haha
To me this song seems to be about a child growing up from the eyes of his or her parents, perhaps around the time of high school graduation when we must discover what to do with our lives and even who we really are.
"True perfection has to be imperfect."
That line must give away the topic of the song. So yeah, just be patient for the things you want. And plus, to get what you want, you not only dream about it; you HAVE to work for it too. Like, you go to school to get an education. And with education, you get a future. And if you want a future, like with those professional-ish jobs, as I like to call them, then stick with school. Like... LITTLE BY LITTLE, dude.
You got perfection part and the"We dream our dreams alone with no resistance" but you missed the imperfect part, I think that means you will have imperfections as part of being perfect, like when the guy falls down in the video and he helps him up, but you just have to carry on as you are without looking back.
