slow motion
Amarante feat. Angie Davis & Davey Lyon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We move in slow motion
We move
We move in slow motion
We free ourselves beneath the ocean
I'm ready for this
For this
Free myself from this
From this
Let this tide sweep over me
Can't go on
Go on
In just a flash you see your life
Images racing through your mind
Too late for regret you've made your choice
The water will drown out your voice
We move
We move in slow motion
We move
We move in slow motion
We free ourselves beneath the ocean
We move in slow motion
When the blue envelops me and all my thoughts and memories
Become trapped beneath the sea
One last breath will set me free
As the water fills my lungs i'm sinking down
And as the water fills my lungs i'm sinking down
We move
We move in slow motion
We move
We move in slow motion
We free ourselves beneath the ocean
We move in slow motion
The lyrics of Amarante's Slow Motion talks about surrendering to the slow motion of life and freeing oneself beneath the ocean. The chorus emphasizes the idea that the only way to truly free oneself is to move slowly and at a calm pace, allowing oneself to be submerged in the moment. The verses talk about the inevitability of life and how one's life flashes before them at the moment of death. The lyrics also explore the idea of one's choices in life, and how regret is futile when it's too late to change anything.
The lyrics have a melancholic and reflective tone, as they contemplate the fleeting nature of life, and the fact that everything we do will eventually come to an end. The repetition of the phrase "We move in slow motion" emphasizes the cyclical nature of life, and how we are constantly moving towards an inevitable end. The reference to the ocean as a metaphor for life highlights the vastness and depth of our experiences, and how we are often just a small part of something much greater.
