Symbols and Maps
Circulatory System Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let's take off in the sky
Painting symbols and maps
Keeps us occupied
The sound in the forest
You heard the whisper
I know you've come a long way
And reveal all the worlds that we've locked inside
The sound in the forest
You heard the whisper
I know you've come a long way.
The lyrics to Circulatory System's song Symbols and Maps suggest a yearning for exploration and a desire to escape from the mundanity of everyday life. The phrase "such a long way, a long way" could refer to a physical or emotional distance that the singer has traveled, and they seem eager to continue that journey by taking to the skies. Painting symbols and maps is presented as a way to stay occupied during this flight, but it could also symbolize a need to create order out of chaos and find meaning in existence.

The forest is often associated with mystery and the unknown, and the whispered message could represent a secret truth that the singer is seeking.
