Devotion
Aurora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

NO ONE FELT LIKE YOU AND LITTLE I
LIKE A FRAGILE LEAF ON A RAINY NIGHT

WE OPENED OUR EYES IN THE SKY
IN THE HOPE OF SEEING THE SIGN
TO MOVE FURTHER OUR DEVOTED LIVES

AND WE BUBBLED WITH LOVE
AND OUR STONED EYES
WERE TRAPPED WITHIN THE SUNSHINE

BETWEEN US NOTHING BUT AIR
THE LOVE WE DESPAIRED
THE COOL BREEZE DOWN THE SPINE

NO ONE FELT LIKE YOU AND LITTLE I
LIKE A FRAGILE LEAF ON A RAINY NIGHT
COMFORTABLY NUMB AND OUT OF MIND
DEAD TO THE BONE OUT OF TIME

AND OUR MINDS UP IN THE SKY
DIDN'T PASS US ANY SINGLE WORD
EVENTHOUGH WE DESPERATELY TRIED

BUT WE COULDN'T FIND THE WORDS
THAT WOULD BREAK THE SILENCE
THAT SURROUNDED US WITH SLOW DEMISE

BETWEEN US NOTHING BUT AIR
THE LOVE WE DESPAIRED
THE COOL BREEZE DOWN THE SPINE
AND THE TWO FRUSTRATED CLOWNS

... BUT I WANTED TO SEE
WHAT YOU WERE WEARING INSIDE
BUT I COULDN'T BREAK THROUGH
AS YOUR SKY WAS THICKER THAN MINE...





BUT DEVOTED WE WERE?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Devotion" by Aurora are about two people who are deeply in love with each other but are unable to express their emotions completely. They are like two fragile leaves on a rainy night, feeling lost and alone. They are trying to find a way to move ahead in their lives with their devoted love. They are trapped in their own world, and even though they try to communicate, they are unable to find the right words to express themselves, which makes them frustrated and sad.


In the second stanza, the lyrics talk about how their minds are up in the sky but they can't find any words to speak, and they feel dead inside. The two frustrated clowns are a metaphor for their inability to communicate with each other. They try to break the silence between them, but they cannot find the words to do so, which creates a bigger gap between them. They both want to be close to each other, but they can't due to their inability to express their emotions fully.


Overall, the song is about the struggle of two people who are deeply in love but are unable to communicate their feelings to each other, which makes them feel frustrated and lost. They are devoted to each other, but their inability to express their love puts up an impenetrable wall between them, making them feel stuck and unable to move ahead.

LYRICS FOR YOU


on Conqueror

Lyrics :)

Broken mornings, broken nights and broken days in between
Open ground, the sky is open, makes an open sea

Just like in fiction, in every addiction
Oh oh, fantasy's taking over, awake me

I've been looking for the conqueror
But you don't seem to come my way
I've been looking for the only one
But you don't seem to come my way

Broken me and broken them
You are broken too
Open ears, their eyes are open
Makes me call for you

But there's no seduction only destruction
(Oh oh) oh fantasy take me over and break me

I've been looking for the conqueror
But you don't seem to come my way
I've been looking for the only one
But you don't seem to come my way

I've been looking for the conqueror
But you don't seem to come my way
I've been looking for the only one
But you don't seem to come my way

I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live

I've been looking for the conqueror
But you don't seem to come my way
I've been looking for the only one
But you don't seem to come my way

I've been looking for the conqueror
But you don't seem to come my way
I've been looking for the only one
But you don't seem to come my way

I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
I feel ali-li-live
