Deep Sea Diver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hold your remorse
Like a gun with no trigger
On your sideways corpse
High horses waiting
The reigns are sawed off
Your skeletons remain
You're the only one
ooh
That I'm ever thinking of
Show me the way
I'll be waiting
Anywhere you walk tonight
Remember my love
ooh
You're the only one
ooh
That I'm ever thinking of
I know you so well
I saw you drowning the light of the moon
Still trying to disfigure
All the lies from the truth
You've got your reasons
But you might be wrong
All your skeletons remain
ooh
You're the only one
ooh
That I'm ever thinking of
Show me the way
I'll be waiting
Anywhere you walk tonight
Remember my love
ooh
You're the only one
ooh
That I'm ever thinking of
I know you so well
Once in a while
I wish you'd pause
Long enough to feel the way
Of what you
Once in a while
I wish you'd pause
Long enough to feel the way
Of what you'd
Done
Remember remember your first
Remember your first love
Remember remember your first
Remember your first love
Remember remember your first
Remember your first love
Remember remember your first
Remember remember
Remember remember your first
Remember remember your first love
Show me the way
I'll be waiting
Anywhere you walk tonight
Remember my love
ooh
You're the only one
ooh
That im ever thinking of
I know you so well
The lyrics of "Secrets" by Deep Sea Diver have a mysterious and haunting quality to them, evoking the idea of holding onto someone's secret sorrows and regrets like a loaded gun. Through their verses, the singer laments about their love, who seems to be struggling with some unknown internal conflict. The metaphor of high horses without reigns and drowning the light of the moon conveys a sense of wrestling with inner demons, while the chorus repeats the lover's fixation on their object of affection, despite their flaws and secrets. The line "Once in a while, I wish you'd pause long enough to feel the way of what you'd done" highlights the desire for the other to take stock and reflect on their actions, perhaps revealing their secrets and remorse to the singer.
The song draws on classic themes of love, passion, and mystery in a poetic and evocative way, leaving the listener with a sense that there is more beneath the surface than meets the eye. The raw vocals and guitar-driven instrumentation heighten the emotional resonance of the lyrics, making them hit that much harder.
Line by Line Meaning
I hold your secrets
I'm aware of your secrets
I hold your remorse
I know you regret your past actions
Like a gun with no trigger
You're carrying a burden that can't be resolved
On your sideways corpse
You're metaphorically dead or defeated
High horses waiting
You're grandiose and arrogant
The reigns are sawed off
You've lost control of your actions
Your skeletons remain
Your past mistakes still haunt you
You're the only one
You're the only person on my mind
That I'm ever thinking of
You occupy my thoughts constantly
Show me the way
Guide me through difficult times
I'll be waiting
I'll be here whenever you need me
Anywhere you walk tonight
I'll follow you anywhere
Remember my love
Don't forget that I care for you
I know you so well
I understand you deeply
I saw you drowning the light of the moon
You're struggling with your emotions
Still trying to disfigure
You're still trying to hide the truth
All the lies from the truth
You've been deceiving yourself
You've got your reasons
You have your motives for your actions
But you might be wrong
Your reasoning might be flawed
Once in a while
Sometimes
I wish you'd pause
I wish you'd take a moment to reflect
Long enough to feel the way
Take enough time to truly understand your feelings
Of what you've done
To consider the consequences of your actions
Remember your first love
Recall a time when you felt pure love

played at grenadier club of Detroit, MI out loud, was standing staring at the house in aw that a voice like this was coming out of the old broken wood that kept the club together on the second floor. My body stood in awe. For a year I troubled myself to find this song, now found.

Besides being an extremely talented group of people they are all sweethearts! Jessica Dobson (lead singer) even remembered my sisters name from their previous visit to San Diego (mind you it was about a year after)and then when I went to buy some merch after they played I mentioned to her how I had lost my previous copy of their older album and she just gave it to me! I know musicians need to make their money, so it meant a lot to me. Add the fact how humble and kind she was to everyone around her regardless of being bombarded by multiple people, she kept her cool...😎 GOD, I LOVE THEM!❤😍
