Seasons
Emily Davis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Slyer than a cat, it seems
Bringing chills and ending dreams
Of warmer, peaceful days
Autumn's slowly killing me
With glimpses from your painful eyes
Echoes of your hushed goodbyes
The winds blew away
Autumn has a way with me
She comes and brings apathy
See, that′s the last thing that we need
It's cold enough outside
Autumn loves to play with me
Her icy winds always reminding
The summer season is so fleeting
And so spent was our time
Evidently, it's over, it′s over now
Should′ve seen it coming
Evidently, we're over
We′re over now
You bring me summer, you bring me summer
In the coldest of months filled with change
You bring me summer, you bring me summer
In the darkest of days
You bring me summer, you bring me summer
In the coldest of months filled with change
You bring me summer, you bring me summer
In the darkest of days
But all seasons must come to an end
Come to an end
Come to an end
Oh, come to an end
All seasons must come to an end
Emily Davis's song Seasons is an emotive piece that captivates the listener through her vivid use of language and powerful imagery. The song begins with the verse "Autumn's creeping up on me, Slyer than a cat, it seems, Bringing chills and ending dreams, Of warmer, peaceful days". Here, Davis sets the tone for the song by using a metaphor to compare the impending arrival of autumn to a cat, known for being elusive and unpredictable. She continues to paint vivid images by describing how autumn not only brings colder temperatures but also "ends dreams of warmer, peaceful days". The second verse repeats the same idea of autumn slowly killing the persona, not physically but emotionally through "glimpses from your painful eyes" and "echoes of your hushed goodbyes". The chorus juxtaposes the idea of summer with autumn, with the former bringing warmth and joy, while the latter brings coldness and apathy. Davis uses the metaphor of seasons to represent different stages in relationships, emphasizing how all seasons – the good and bad times – inevitably come to an end.
The repetition of the line "You bring me summer in the coldest of months filled with change" emphasizes the importance of having a comforting and supportive presence in difficult times. The bridge "Evidently, it's over, it's over now, Should've seen it coming, Evidently, we're over, we're over now" feels like a confession where Davis expresses regret for not realizing the relationship was ending sooner. The last verse ends with the repetition of "All seasons must come to an end" driving home the main message of the song, that life is constantly changing, and all good things must come to an end.
