Sirens Call
Cats on Trees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing according to plan
If I could just see clear, into you
The same face every day
The sirens calling away
This mean so much more
The floating boat is carrying me
And I can live my story differently
The greedy sirens are chewing all around me
While I sing oh whoa, oh whoa oh whoa
On the falling shoals, I wonder why me?
On my way to the falls, I hope you see
We are heading to the wall even if you are sorry
While I sing oh whoa
Oh whoa oh whoa, oh whoa
In my sleep, nothing same
Nothing according to plan
If I could be someone, without you
The same smile everyday
The sirens calling away
This mean so much more
The floating boat is carrying me
And I can live my story differently
The greedy sirens are chewing all around me
While I sing oh whoa
Oh whoa oh whoa
And in my sleep, nothing same
Nothing according to plan
And if I could be
Someone, without you
The same smile everyday
The sirens calling away
This mean so much more
This mean so much more
The sirens calling
Floating boat is carrying me (the sirens calling)
I can live my story differently
While I sing oh
The floating boat is carrying me
And I can live my story differently
The greedy sirens are chewing all around me
While I sing oh whoa
Oh whoa oh whoa
On the falling shoals, I wonder why me?
On my way to the falls, I hope you see
We are heading to the wall even if you are sorry
While I sing oh whoa
Oh whoa oh whoa
The floating boat is carrying me
And I can live my story differently
The sirens calling
If I could be someone
The falling shoals, I wonder why me?
On my way to the falls, I hope you see
We are heading to the wall even if you are sorry
While I sing oh whoa
Oh whoa oh whoa
Oh whoa
The lyrics of "Sirens Call" by Cats on Trees are about being in a relationship that has lost its meaning and feeling trapped by it. The first verse talks about the monotony of everyday life with the same face and the same smile every day, and how nothing seems to go according to plan. The mention of sirens calling away represents the pull of temptation and the desire to break free from the routine.
The second verse suggests the possibility of change and living one's story differently. The floating boat symbolizes the freedom to explore new possibilities and escape the grasp of the sirens, which represent the enticement of a stagnant relationship. The chorus repeats the imagery of the floating boat carrying the singer away and the sirens calling from afar, emphasizing the struggle between staying in a comfortable yet unfulfilling situation and the fear of the unknown in pursuit of something more meaningful.
The lines "On the falling shoals, I wonder why me? / On my way to the falls, I hope you see / We are heading to the wall, even if you are sorry" add a sense of urgency to the theme of the song. The singer questions why they are trapped in this situation and hopes that their partner will see the need for change before it's too late. Despite the potential for regret, the singer is determined to break free from the sirens' call and live their story differently.
Line by Line Meaning
Whatever way, the same
Life seems monotonous, no matter how I approach it
Nothing according to plan
Unexpected things happen, regardless of what I have planned
If I could just see clear, into you
I wish I could understand you better
The same face every day
I see the same person every day
The sirens calling away
The allure of something dangerous is tempting me
This mean so much more
This has greater importance than it seems
The floating boat is carrying me
I feel like I am being carried by life
And I can live my story differently
I have the ability to make changes and shape my own destiny
The greedy sirens are chewing all around me
There are many tempting but dangerous things around me
While I sing oh whoa, oh whoa oh whoa
Expressing my emotions through song
On the falling shoals, I wonder why me?
When things go wrong, I question why it had to happen to me
On my way to the falls, I hope you see
I hope you can see me on my path to destruction
We are heading to the wall even if you are sorry
We're headed for trouble regardless of apologies
And in my sleep, nothing same
Even in my dreams, things are not predictable
If I could be someone, without you
I wish I could change who I am, apart from you
The same smile everyday
I see the same facial expression every day
The sirens calling away
I feel drawn to something dangerous
This mean so much more
This is of greater significance than it seems
Floating boat is carrying me (the sirens calling)
Life is taking me in a certain direction
While I sing oh
Expressing myself through music
