...and Oceans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's all the same, but is it forever?
Another way, another time
Silence and happiness now together
Another end, another life
It's all the same, it's all over
Another smile for parasites
And the dogs that can smell her
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Another face, another smile
Nails carving deeper and deeper
Another eye, another sight
Seeing nothing never and ever
Another form, another light
Crawling higher, higher and higher
Another skin another white
And a sun that is brighter
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Another voice another sigh
Calling stronger and stronger and stronger
Another scent, another life
Now smell the filth odor
Another taste, another try
On your tongue the fruit so bitter
Another world, another side
In control to crush your soul
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Can't you see the light? Can't you see the light?
No, no, no, no
Another face, another form
It is her face that forms worms
The lyrics of ...and Oceans's song Angelina depict a dark and despairing picture of life, where every day and night is the same, and nothing ever changes. The singer, possibly Angelina herself, questions if life will always be like this, if it is permanent. She finds solace in the silence and happiness and is ready to embrace the end of her life, while parasites and dogs that can smell her smile. She seems to taunt someone, daring them to see the light even though she knows they can't. The repetition of 'Can't you see the light?' alludes to an existential crisis and frustration with one's inability to see beyond the darkness.
The second verse continues with the same dark theme, introducing the concept of personal destruction. With every smile or nail that carves into flesh, Angelina plunges deeper into a life of suffering, seeing nothing and never ever finding any reprieve. She crawls higher and higher to reach some form of light, but only finds a self-destructive cycle of white skin and a sun that is brighter, an inverse relationship between bright light and pain.
The third verse adds more dimensions to the picture, where Angelina is tormented by a voice and scent that seems to torment her. The fruit becomes bitter and her soul is crushed, and she realizes that the light she was searching for is nothing but worms that form in her face, a reference to her personal decay. Overall, the lyrics paint a vivid picture of depression, loneliness, and despair, where every aspect of life becomes an insurmountable obstacle.
