VIOLET
Bokka Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Through the tunnels, I followed glowing worms
I was jumping higher than a man can do
From one tree to another
Don't wake me, don't want to
Don't want to let go
There's no happy ending
Don't wake me, don't want to
Don't want to let go
There's no happy ending
Once doors are closed
The doors are closed
Oh, I was dreaming that I died in a silver room
People watched me as I tried to make a move
With no heart beat and no need to take a breath
I ran to tell you that I died for you
Please, wake me, I want to
I want to let go
There's no happy ending
Once doors are closed
Oh please, wake me, I want to
I want to let go
There's no happy ending
Once doors are closed
The doors are closed
The doors are closed
In "Violet" by Bokka, the singer is in a surreal dream state, exploring an imaginary landscape. The lyrics suggest that the dreamer is not ready to leave this world and return to reality. They're enjoying their freedom and adventure too much to simply wake up and go back to their ordinary life. The violet mountain tops and tunnels filled with glowing worms hint at a mystical or magical atmosphere, as if the dreamer is on a quest. Jumping from tree to tree suggests the kind of wild abandon and liberation that comes with lucid dreaming. However, the dreamer is aware that this joy is fleeting, as hinted by the repeated refrain of "once doors are closed".
The second verse takes a strange turn, where the singer appears to die and enter a silver room in the afterlife. Even though they're physically dead, they're still compelled to find a way to reach out to someone they love. The line "I ran to tell you that I died for you" could be interpreted as the dreamer's final attempt to make a deep connection with someone before leaving this world. The plea to be woken up suggests a desire to stay alive and continue this journey, even if it's only in their mind. The overall message of the song seems to be about cherishing those moments of freedom and adventure while they last, even if they're only temporary.

Operowanie głosem przez Dawida sprawia, że jego zwrotka bardzo przypomina wokalnie czasy Comfort and Happiness. Naprawdę świetne!
Jak widzę w opisie, producentem utworu jest Bogdan Kondracki - producent Comfort and Happiness. Wszystko układa się w całkiem logiczną całość :)
