Barbott Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That turns me on
It's hard for me to get by
But it won't stop.
How come nobody knows
it's so fucking hard
to be left in the past?
it's hard for me
But for you to let down
I wouldn't doubt
How come nobody knows
it's so fucking hard to be
left in the past?
As I go through the line
As I go through the line
As I go through the line
Feels alright
Feels alright
The lyrics of Barbott's song Cream seem to hint at feelings of nostalgia and heartache. The song starts with the lyrics "And the ocean flows, that turns me on" which could be interpreted as how nature brings comfort to the singer even amidst difficult times. The next line "It's hard for me to get by, but it won't stop" could represent that despite struggling, the singer is persevering but still feeling alone in their struggles as they question "How come nobody knows it's so fucking hard to be left in the past?"
The second stanza shifts towards thoughts of a relationship, with the lyrics "How will I ever get her, it's hard for me / But for you to let down I wouldn't doubt". The singer is struggling to figure out how to win over their love interest as they lament how difficult it is for them. The stanza ends with the repetition of the first line, further emphasizing the connection the singer has with nature, perhaps looking towards the ocean for guidance during this challenging time.
The last stanza repeats the phrase "As I go through the line" three times before ending with "Feels alright" twice, possibly symbolizing that despite all the heartache, sometimes the simple act of going through the motions can bring peace and normalcy.
Overall, the lyrics of Cream are open to interpretation and could speak to various experiences of heartache, longing and the search for comfort.
