Ethereal
Dulcie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To think that we are all equal
We are ethereal souls
Masquerading here as people
I don’t know where I lost myself
Feasting on words that you said
Making it personal
Scratching and scaring and scouring the earth
Breathe into me
Out of my own eyes I can hardly see Out of my body of my entity
Out in the open I will learn to be
As one, as one
If we abandon it all
See if we will take it or leave it
Inside I creep and I crawl
Wonder what’s real in my dreaming
I don’t know where I lost my mind
Didn’t we all lose ourselves just to find, find I don’t know why we can’t see the mystery If I catch glimpses of you inside every part of me
Breathe into me
Out of my own eyes I can hardly see Out of my body of my entity
Out in the open I will learn to be
As one, as one
As one as one
As one as one
As one as one
As one as one
Breathe into me
Out of my own eyes I can hardly see Out of my body of my entity
Out in the open I will learn to be
As one, as one
The song "Ethereal" by Dulcie explores the concept of oneness and the interconnectedness of humanity. The opening lines express the idea that despite our differences, we are all equal and interconnected spiritual beings who are currently inhabiting physical bodies. This is further reinforced in the chorus, where the singer seeks to reconnect with this higher understanding and learn to exist as one with the universe.
The second verse speaks to the challenges of this quest for interconnectedness, as the singer grapples with self-doubt and the pain of personal experiences. The line "Feasting on words that you said/Making it personal" suggests that the singer has taken criticism or negativity to heart, perhaps in a way that has caused her to question her own value. However, despite these struggles, the singer insists that she will persevere and continue to seek unity with the world around her.
Overall, "Ethereal" is a beautiful and thought-provoking meditation on the nature of spirituality and our place in the world. Its gentle, uplifting melody serves as a fitting backdrop for the lyrics' message of hope and interconnectedness.
