Axel Flóvent Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Under the colors
I wish you best
But all you can think of
Is the truth
It's all in your head
You're not that upset
It's the idea of something
It's gone

It's bittersweet
How I can stay in this forest?
Never want to leave
This place
The constant collision
Is making me wanna go back
But it's not an option
Anymore

I thought you had something
Left on your mind
But it seems to be all forgotten
Tried to find balance
Something that helps you untie
'Cause you are the light

Under the colors
Where your heart will rest tonight
The ghost of you will stay the night
We have our protectors
The ones that do care
You just have to find them
Have to

I thought you had something
Left on your mind
But it seems to be all forgotten
Tried to find balance
Something that helps you untie

'Cause you are the light
No, 'cause you are the light

Overall Meaning

The song "Fireworks" by Axel Flóvent is a reflective song about trying to find balance amidst having contradicting emotions. The opening lines "Under the colors, I wish you best, but all you can think of is the truth" depicts the mixed emotions and the inability to fully let go of something that is now gone. The singer then provides a reassuring tone, saying that the person is not that upset but rather caught up in the idea of what could have been. The lines "It's bittersweet, How I can stay in this forest? Never want to leave, This place" shows how staying in a familiar place can be comforting but at the same time, can make one feel stuck.

There are also hints of a supportive environment in the song as the singer mentions "We have our protectors, The ones that do care. You just have to find them, Have to" portraying the importance of having people that genuinely care around. The song ends with the repeated line "Cause you are the light", as if to remind the person that they have something special to offer, even amidst their struggles.

Line by Line Meaning

Under the colors
In the midst of celebration and joy

I wish you best
I hope for the best for you

But all you can think of
You're solely focused on

Is the truth
Confronting the reality

It's all in your head
The issue is within your mind

You're not that upset
You’re not as disheartened as you seem

It's the idea of something
You’re troubled by the thought of it

It's gone
It’s vanished from your life

It's bittersweet
It's a conflicted feeling

How I can stay in this forest?
How can I remain in this blissful state?

Never want to leave
I don't want to depart from here

This place
This particular moment in time

The constant collision
The unavoidable clash of emotions

Is making me wanna go back
Is drawing me back towards the past

But it's not an option
I can't go back

Anymore
The chance has passed

I thought you had something
I believed you still had feelings

Left on your mind
Lingering thoughts or emotions

But it seems to be all forgotten
But it appears to no longer exist

Tried to find balance
Seeking harmony and stability

Something that helps you untie
Something to help release and free yourself

'Cause you are the light
You’re the beacon of hope and positivity

Where your heart will rest tonight
Where your emotions will find solace tonight

The ghost of you will stay the night
The memory of you will linger through the night

We have our protectors
We have those who are there for us

The ones that do care
The ones who genuinely show concern

You just have to find them
You just have to seek them out

No, 'cause you are the light
No, it's because you’re the source of brightness amidst the darkness

I always feel deep nostalgia when I listen to any of your songs, they bring me back to when you first started making music, and the fact that you wrote this song during the time of “Forest Fires” just makes it even more nostalgic. I love everything you do!
