Jungle
Dhruv Visvanath Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stop, as we wait
For the motions to bear
Hold, all those things
You hold dearly
Colour, all your eyes
As you stop and stare
This handsome fog lies
Nowhere else

Time to run
Time to run from the
Rising sun
All those shadows
Behind me I thought
I had to run
Time to hide
All these valleys
to overcome
All these shadows
Behind me I thought
I had to run

Wait
Don't you know
Why I chase you through forests
Attatched to your soles
Don't be afraid
For the darkness you give
Becomes more than shade
I'm listening, to the end of the day
My silence is golden
I'm humbled I fear
As night becomes home
My soul disappears singing

Ooohhh

Time to run
Time to run from the
Rising sun
All those shadows
Behind me I thought
I had to run
Time to hide
All these valleys
to overcome
All these shadows




Behind me I thought
I had to run

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dhruv Visvanath's "Jungle" can be interpreted as a representation of the struggle between light and darkness within oneself. The song starts with a request to stop and wait, implying the need for pause and reflection before moving forward. The following lines tell the listener to hold onto the things they cherish, perhaps a metaphor for holding onto one's true self amidst the chaos of the world. The lyrics also paint a vivid picture of the surroundings, describing the beautiful and mysterious fog that lies all around.


As the song progresses, the singer tells the listener it's time to run and hide, suggesting they are running from something. The rising sun and shadows cast around the singer symbolize a new day and the darkness and fears that they carry with them. The singer then asks the listener not to be afraid, for their dark side might just be what attracts him to them. The last stanza has the singer describing how he disappears into the night and into the music, singing their soul away.


Overall, the song portrays the duality that exists within every individual: the light and dark parts of oneself that are constantly at odds with each other. The lyrics suggest that it's essential to embrace both sides and come to terms with them to live a fulfilling life.
