Drifting
Andrei Samsonov & Laska Omnia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Drifting over midnight spaces -
I hear nothing but your name.
Drown back to where I left you -
What a feeling to provoke to.

And I am addicted to,
Decapitated for insanity.
And I am infected by,
Secretly injected with clarity.

Drifting over moonlit rivers
I feel nothing but your spell.




I'm truthful all this truth
Leaves me naked for you.

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Drifting" depict a sense of detachment and a longing for someone specific. The singer talks about drifting through vast, empty spaces during the late hours of the night, where all they can hear is the name of the person they're fixated on. This suggests that their thoughts and emotions are completely consumed by this individual.


The phrase "Drown back to where I left you" implies that the singer is being drawn back to a past experience or relationship that they had left behind. The feeling provoked by returning to this situation is intense and impactful, suggesting that there is still a strong emotional connection or unresolved issues associated with it.


The second verse delves deeper into the singer's emotional state. They describe themselves as being addicted to something, metaphorically "decapitated for insanity." This could be interpreted as an all-consuming obsession or desire that has caused them to lose their sense of self and rationality. It speaks to the intensity of their emotions and implies that they are willing to go to extreme lengths to satisfy their cravings.


The line "And I am infected by, secretly injected with clarity" suggests a paradoxical situation. Despite being consumed by their obsessions, the singer also experiences moments of clarity and understanding. This clarity is described as being secretly injected, possibly hinting at a hidden source of insight or a newfound awareness that they don't openly acknowledge. It implies that amidst the chaos of their emotions, they gain temporary glimpses of understanding and perspective.


Moving into the final section, the singer describes themselves drifting over moonlit rivers. Once again, the focus is solely on the spellbinding effect that the subject of their affection has on them. Their profound connection to this person makes them feel naked, a metaphor emphasizing vulnerability and honesty. This suggests that the singer is fully exposed emotionally, unable to hide or deny their feelings, as their connection with this person brings out their most authentic self.


Overall, "Drifting" portrays a deep emotional attachment to a specific person, with the singer being unable to escape the thoughts and feelings associated with them. The lyrics express both the intoxicating allure and the consuming nature of this relationship, as well as the conflicting emotions it evokes within the singer.
