Catamaran
Kyuss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cool air surrounds
Soft and savory
Take me to God, you can take me to God
No it doesn't take your
Will to set your brace on me
I never doubt your possibilities
Please let go of my sleeve
Smooth stones behind me
Cold air surrounds
Soft and savory
You can take me to God, you take me to God
No it doesn't take your
Will to set your brace on me
I never doubt your possibilities
Please let go of my sleeve
The lyrics of Kyuss's song Catamaran are evocative and enigmatic, inviting listeners to imagine a scene of serenity and escape. The opening lines paint a picture of physical sensations: the smooth stones beneath the singer, the cool air surrounding them, and a sense of softness and pleasure. But there is also a spiritual dimension to these feelings, as the singer invites someone or something to take them to God. The repetition of this phrase adds to its significance, suggesting a desire for transcendence and connection to the divine.
The second verse repeats the same sensory descriptions, indicating that the singer remains in this idyllic state, but there is a shift in tone with the line "No it doesn't take your will to set your brace on me." This could be interpreted as a rejection of external pressures or expectations, a refusal to be held back or controlled, or perhaps a warning to someone who is trying to influence the singer. The following line emphasizes the singer's faith in their own abilities and potential, even as they ask the other person to let go of their sleeve.

I had the privilege of seeing the almighty Kyuss play live in the Indio desert in the early 90s. It forever redefined my definition of beautiful.
