Iceland
Crimson Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Leave me here
Lying in between blind and motionless
Cold... My heart has gone astray again
Days go by
And still I cannot reach your mind

So... Here it ends
Where only sound of trees wandering through the land
Oh, Lord... How could I follow you?
I reached for you a million times
But still I cannot reach your heart

Like a daydream to escape my aching memory
Like a stranger passing by who just won't wait
Like a lifetime that's so long to feel

Why we always move in circles
Biding our time

Between the idea and the reality
Between the emotion and the act
Falls a shadow

Between the desire and the spasm
Berween the potency and the existence




Between the essence and the descent
Falls a shadow

Overall Meaning

The song Iceland by Crimson Blue is a heartfelt track that speaks about the feeling of being lost and abandoned. The opening lines "Leave me here, lying in between blind and motionless" creates an image of someone who has been left alone and stranded. The feeling of abandonment is further emphasized in the next line "Cold... My heart has gone astray again," which reveals that the person has lost all hope of finding love or happiness. The following lines "Days go by and still I cannot reach your mind" further emphasize the theme of feeling secluded and isolated from the world.


The chorus of the song further elucidates the message of the song, where the singer laments his inability to connect with the person he loves. The lines "I reached for you a million times, but still I cannot reach your heart" is a poignant reminder of how love can sometimes be elusive and unattainable. The lyricism of the song is incredibly moving, with lines such as "Like a daydream to escape my aching memory, like a stranger passing by who just won't wait, like a lifetime that's so long to feel" painting a vivid picture of the singer's state of mind.


The song's closing lines are perhaps the most thought-provoking, "Between the idea and the reality, between the emotion and the act, falls a shadow. Between the desire and the spasm, between the potency and the existence, between the essence and the descent, falls a shadow." These lines can be interpreted in many ways, but they seem to speak about the human condition and how we often hold ourselves back from actualizing our desires due to our fears and insecurities.

Leave me here
I want to be left alone


Lying in between blind and motionless

Cold... My heart has gone astray again
I am feeling emotionally distant


Days go by
Time passes


And still I cannot reach your mind
I can't connect with you mentally

This is where it all comes to a close

Biding our time
Waiting for something to happen


Between the idea and the reality
There's a divide between what we imagine and what's actually happening

Falls a shadow
Something is blocking us from fully realizing our ideas and emotions


Between the desire and the spasm
We may want something but not be able to fully achieve it


Berween the potency and the existence
There's a gap between what we're capable of and what actually exists


Between the essence and the descent
Our true nature may conflict with our actions


Falls a shadow
Something is blocking us from fully realizing our potential
