Out Of Nowhere Lyrics

//Mmmmmmm
mmmmmmm//
seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
i didn't know that i was next in line but it is not as if i had much time
jet black all around me voices calling saying please don't go away
last thing i remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead

out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere
i saw it over there before it hit you on the head
i saw it over there
out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere
i saw it over there before it hit you on the head
i saw it over there

//mmmmmmm
mmmmmmm//

seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
didn't know that i was next in line but it is not as if i had much time
jet black all around me voices calling saying please don't go away
last thing i remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead

then
when i came around somebody helped me to my feet and said i can't believe you're still alive
i seen twenty other people in the last half an hour who've been hit right between the eyes
it seems that somebody somewhere's on a mission to protect ya cos there's no way that you should've survived
hurrah, hurrah, hurrah //hurrah//
we're still alive

out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere
i saw it over there before it hit you on the head
i saw it over there
out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere
i saw it over there before it hit you on the head
i saw it over there

out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere
i saw it over there before it hit you on the head
i saw it over there

out of nowhere

I totally do NOT get this song. It seems like it's a song about being hit on the head by someone. Or something. It's so strange...

nearly dying but not quite and surviving? cant really see if theres meant to be a hidden meaning or anything! strange indeed..

lmfao its hilarious, i absolutly love the start its so wonderfully weird, i think thsi has got to be one of my fav songs theyve done.

Great song!

Before is saw these lyrics I thought that it said:

jet lag all around me

rather than

jet black all around me

cos that would of made more sense because i thought that he was in an airport and there was a terroist attack.

But probably wrong. Who cares! Great song!

it's about god watching over the song writer even though the odds were against him

'it seems that somebody somewhere's on a mission to protect ya cos there's no way that you should've survived'

i don't know if it's a real life experience though

Cover art for Out Of Nowhere lyrics by Athlete

there could potentially be a reference to war. there is the feeling that he is running from an attack, while many of his mates have been killed he is escaping through a tunnel and once he is in the clear he has a mind revitalizing epiphany: he could of just as easily been killed but is alive

I reckon It's about some kinda ball game - Cricket or something 7 people out, 14 left to bowl "I didn't know that i was next in line" Didn't know he was on the field next "Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head" They bat the ball and it hits the chappy and knocks him out "Hit right between the eyes" suggests he was hit by the ball and hes not in some kind of war

Here's what I've got out of this song.

There are 21 people put in line for execution. Just when the next turn comes to him, a third party arrives, neutralizes the executors and some of them even hits the remaining 14 people in the head with the back of their rifle.

I don't know why, but the song makes sense to me this way :)
