Dark Therapy
Echobelly Lyrics

High above the roof tops,
The singer is above everything, in a state where they feel superior.

Higher than the milky way,
The singer is in a place where they are higher than anything else that exists, even up to the vastness of the universe.

Slipping through the hour glass,
The singer is moving through time, but it feels as if they are passing it quickly.

Shooting up the desert plain,
The artist is moving swiftly through a barren and lifeless place, seemingly at high speeds.

You are one life older than before,
The artist has aged and has become more experienced

But you can't stop the chill,
Despite their growth, the singer still has fears and anxieties that cause them to feel a cold shiver down their spine.

Now you're falling in slow motion,
The singer is falling, but it feels like time is slowing down while they do so.

Though the air is still.
Even though the artist is moving, there's a sense of stillness in their surroundings.

You are on the outside,
The artist is separated from something or someone.

Hands upon the window sill,
They are physically outside, with their hands resting on the ledge of the window.

I am on the inside,
Someone else is inside where the singer is not.

Carving up the hunters kill.
There is a sense of violence, as if the person inside is hunting and killing something or someone.

Cruising on a missile,
The singer is moving at high speeds on a missile, feeling almost invincible.

Cruising on a desert plain,
The singer is still moving through a lifeless and arid place.

Wading through a minefield,
There is a sense of danger and uncertainty involved in the singer's movements.

Wading through the monsoon rain,
The artist is struggling through a heavy and intense rainstorm.

Surfing on an oil spill,
The artist is riding on the negative effects of something (in this case, an oil spill), exploiting it for their own benefit.

Surfing on a perfect wave,
The singer is riding a wave and using it to their advantage, enjoying the high point of their life.

Porn upon the airwaves,
There is a sense of vulgarity and immorality, as if the singer is surrounded by inappropriate things.

Rituals of the mating game.
There are social customs and traditions associated with courtship that the artist is participating in.

If you close your eyes than I can take you all the way,
The artist is offering to guide someone and show them something, but they must trust them enough to close their eyes.

Let me close your eyes and I will take it all the way.
The artist will take the other person on a journey, but first, they must give up control and let the artist do the guiding.
