Horizon
Desdemonia Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see your dreams with my eyes
I take your love with me
Rise
You see me now as an enemy
I blame my words with my eyes

Possessor of life
This need you deny

I see your dreams drowned in pain

You, you are not different
Lost

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Desdemonia's song Horizon suggest a sense of loss and misunderstanding in a relationship. The singer seems to be describing a situation where they were once in love with someone and intimately familiar with their dreams and desires, but now the two have become estranged. The singer claims that the other person now sees them as an enemy, though they do not clearly state why. Perhaps there was a falling out or a misunderstanding, or maybe the two have simply grown apart. Despite this, the singer still remembers the other person's dreams and feels a connection to them, even if they are not reciprocated.
