Серебро
Би-2 Lyrics

The lyrics in Би-2's song Серебро convey a sense of longing and uncertainty about the future. The singer declares that they will not return to a previous state, perhaps referring to a relationship or a time in their life they have left behind. The use of the imagery of fog swallowing their words and turning them into water creates a sense of confusion and loss. The singer then declares that they would give up everything for the continuation of their journey, even their carefree freedom.

The poem then switches to a description of the current season, winter, symbolizing a difficult and isolating period. The singer expresses feeling uncomfortable and estranged from a person they address in the second person. The lines "Нам не стерпеть друг друга" ("We cannot stand each other") denote a strained relationship that seems to be coming to an end. The singer then mentions a "crazy star" that takes them around in circles, further emphasizing their feeling of being lost and without direction. Finally, the singer describes a moon's light that is untrue and the merging of cities with themselves. It is unclear what this symbolizes, but it seems to represent a futility to escape one's circumstances. The final lines express the hope not to lose the one thing the singer values the most, perhaps referring to a person or an ideal.
