Eureka
Alex M.O.R.P.H. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are your skies clear and sunny down there?
Even in this rain the breath of the breeze is reaching me here
Here on this phone
A quarter a day room for me
And as things stay the same
I'm quickly running out of change
While you're sitting there on your ass
Fresh crease in your shirts
No stain of sweat on your back
There's no need
There's an employee
To make up for all of your slack
A seed don't make a tree
Without a servant who waters the grass
The lyrics to Alex M.O.R.P.H.'s song "Eureka" paints a picture of a distant relationship between two people. The singer starts by asking if the other person can hear them and whether their skies are clear at the other end; even though it's raining on his side, he can feel the breeze blowing. He then talks from a phone booth, which costs a quarter a day, indicating his financial inability. He is running out of change because nothing has changed, and he still feels distant from the person he's speaking to. He sarcastically talks about the other person's success and how they're doing well, as opposed to him. He also notes that they must have someone working for them, making up for all their shortcomings.
In summary, the lyrics of "Eureka," reveals the gulf that comes between people in a long-distance relationship, with one party apparently thriving while the other struggles to make ends meet, waiting for a breakthrough.
