Pass It On Lyrics

Every day I recognise
What's deceased and what's alive
But don't repeat what I just said
Until boulders turn to lead
Then all the tales will be told
Whilst you and I are in the cold
But don't think this is the end
Cos it's just begun my friend
And when it's done
And all this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on

For every tear cried in shame
There'll be someone else to blame
And every crime that I commit
There'll be a punishement to fit
But I'd accept what's coming round
If I could only lose this sound
That's been ringing in my ears
And tormenting me for years

When it's done
And all of this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on

And when it's done
And all of this is gone
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on
Just find a feeling pass it on

Gotta be my favourite song that the Coral have released. Pretty self explanatory lyrics I think!

i think that instead of "until boulders turn to lead" it should be "until gold has turned to lead" Alchemists used to try to turn lead to gold so the imagery fits

I think this song is an obvious life plan sort of song. "And all the tales will be told Whilst you and I are in the cold But don't think this is the end 'Cause it's just begun my friend" We miss out on things we would have loved but it doesn't matter "it's just begun"

For every tear cried in shame There'll be someone else to blame And every crime that I commit There'll be a punishment to fit I think the first two lines are confusing, in this seemingly ideal song there's the idea of passing the blame onto someone else for your "shame". However the second couplet seems to fix this because you're going to be punished for your crimes and mistakes. The fact that these two contradict each other confuses me though

And I'd accept what's coming round If I could only lose this sound That's been ringing in my ears And tormenting me for years For this verse I automatically thought of the song by Florence and the Machine "Drumming Song". In that song "drumming" is a clear metaphor for love. I think perhaps the "sound" in this song is also a metaphor for love, perhaps he's wanting to lose the feeling of being in love with someone so that he can just live his life in his way. Or perhaps it's the opposite and he wants to give up on feelings of hate so that he can "find this feeling".

I love this song, I've been thinking of getting a tattoo from this song for years

he could be referring to a spliff or a real feeling. it's something that takes you away from whatevr it is anyway. i love it acshelly. I can imagine if i was ina film and i was sat round a campfire on a beach at night with a load of friends and this playing in the background.
