Oh, it's calling out, and I won't walk away I've been breaking, hiding from the spotlightĪnd the more I reach, the more I fade away I've been shaken, waking in the night light Throughout this progression, we're going to hear Imagine Dragons reminisce on making mistakes, wanting something more, and eventually achieving it or, at least, be in the process of achieving it. In this song, as with many pop songs, the verses tell us a story, the chorus communicates the main theme, and the bridge provides a different perspective, both musically and lyrically on the entire situation. Let's see if it stands up to explication. The song's interesting, written almost entirely by band members, and focuses on a theme of improving one's self. So, to make sure that I wasn't wasting time, I looked at the last four I hadn't explained yet and decided that "Rise Up" was likely the deepest one I hadn't explained. Two of the ones I've explained so far have been unfortunately rather shallow or rather vague in a "pop music sort of way" that leaves me wanting something deeper from Dan Reynolds and Imagine Dragons. I've already explained seven out of the eleven songs on Evolve, and I'm not going to explain every song on the album.
