Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
depression, depression
depression wave, depression wave (8x)
i see the stars, i see the moon
see the sky above me
and everything seems so little
like falling apart
the stars
the moon
all
the things in the universe
i really don`t know
i really don`t know what love is
i really don`t know (2x)
i really don`t know what paradise means (2x)
don`t know what paradise means
i really don`t know what paradise means (2x)
and i was dreaming
(dreaming away)
i was dreaming
(dreaming away)
dreaming my little life away
(dreaming away)
dreaming my love away
(dreaming away)
wasting away
(dreaming away)
high balance in the sky
floating
deep
so deep
creation and earth
creation itself
what that means?
The song "Depression" by A.n.K.h is a poignant expression of the singer's struggle with depression. The repetition of "you look so sad" sets the tone for the song, suggesting that the singer is addressing someone who is struggling with despair. The repetition of "depression wave" reinforces this imagery, suggesting a feeling of being overwhelmed by negative emotions.
The second stanza shifts focus to the natural world, as the singer describes looking up at the stars, moon, and sky. However, rather than finding solace in nature, the singer feels small and insignificant in the face of the vast universe. This sense of insignificance is echoed in the line, "i really don't know what love is," suggesting a loss of connection with other people.
The final stanza continues the theme of being adrift, with the singer describing themselves as "dreaming away" and "wasting away." The reference to "creation and earth" suggests a desire to find meaning and purpose, but the line "what that means?" suggests a sense of hopelessness or confusion. Overall, the song captures the sense of despair and disconnection that often accompany depression.
