Линия Жизни
Сплин Lyrics

The lyrics of Сплин's song Линия жизни (Life Line) convey a sense of detachment from society and an embrace of individuality. The repeated phrase "Гни свою линию" (Rot your life line) becomes a mantra for the characters in the song. The opening lines of "Мы легли на дно, Мы зажгли огни" (We lay down, we lit up lights) evoke images of being in the depths of the ocean, with only themselves to rely on. The line "Во Вселенной только мы одни" (In the universe, we are the only ones) further emphasizes this isolation.

As the song continues, they describe the universe around them and suggest that there is nothing left for them to discover or pursue. The line "Мы ушли в открытый Космос" (We left for the open Cosmos) suggests a journey into space that is both physical and metaphorical. The repetition of "Горят огни" (The lights are burning) creates a sense of urgency and intensity, as if they are driven by their own life force.

Throughout the song, there is an undercurrent of rebellion against conformity and a celebration of self-determination. The idea of "rotting" one's own life line implies a rejection of outside influence and a determination to chart one's own course. The lines "В этом мире больше нечего ловить" (There is nothing left to catch in this world) suggest a sort of freedom and liberation from earthly concerns and expectations.
