Equador Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Could we let go of everything
All of the things that we knew
We are human
And we could surrender to anything
But there's too much to lose
But you stay close to me
Why don't you wage war on me
We are human, you see
Could surrender to anything
All our things we stand to lose
Lost in the symmetry
Lost in the symmetry
When we trust in the dust
And we don't know that all of it's given us
Tighten the clasp
I could move over the familiar shadow
I've been trying to
But you've chained me to you
And you stay close to me
So we're dancing in symmetry
Why don't you wage war on me
We are human, you see
And we could surrender to anything
But it's too late to choose
Lost in the symmetry
Lost in the symmetry
Tell me what we're fighting
Tell me
What are we fighting, fighting for?
Lost in the symmetry
Tell me, tell me, tell me
What are we fighting, fighting for?
Lost in the symmetry
Tell me, what are we fighting, fighting for?
Lost in the symmetry
Tell me, tell me, tell me
What are we fighting, fighting for?
Lost in the symmetry
The song "Symmetry" by Equador is a melancholic yet meaningful track that talks about the value of surrendering and letting go of things that we hold onto despite knowing that it's causing us damage. The lyrics start by questioning the importance of speaking the truth and if it's worth letting go of everything we've known to grow as human beings.
The lines "We are human and we could surrender to anything, but there's too much to lose" highlight our tendency to hold onto things that are familiar to us even if they're not good for us. However, the chorus gives us hope that even though we're afraid to lose what we have, finding someone who shares the same fear and staying close can lead to a beautiful dance in symmetry, a harmony that can only be achieved by letting go.
The lyrics in the second verse refer to the fear of moving on from something that's familiar to us. The lines "Tighten the clasp, I could move over the familiar shadow, I've been trying to, but you've chained me to you" suggest that even if we want to move on, the fear of the unknown and the comfort of familiarity might be holding us back.
Overall, the song encourages us to ask ourselves what we're fighting for, and whether holding onto certain things is worth losing our freedom and happiness.
Line by Line Meaning
While we're speaking the truth
As we talk honestly and openly
Could we let go of everything
Can we release our attachments and surrender ourselves
All of the things that we knew
All of the knowledge and experiences we've accumulated
We are human
We are vulnerable beings
And we could surrender to anything
We have the capacity to let go of anything
But there's too much to lose
But the stakes are too high
But you stay close to me
But you remain by my side
So we're dancing in symmetry
So we move in perfect harmony
Why don't you wage war on me
Why don't you challenge me and push me to the limit
All our things we stand to lose
All of our possessions and what's at stake
Lost in the symmetry
Stuck in the pattern of our relationship
When we trust in the dust
When we believe in things that are fleeting
And we don't know that all of it's given us
And we don't realize that everything has been provided for us
Tighten the clasp
Hold on tightly
I could move over the familiar shadow
I could break free from my old patterns
I've been trying to
I've been attempting to do so
But you've chained me to you
But you're the one keeping me trapped
But it's too late to choose
But the choice has already been made
Tell me what we're fighting
Please enlighten me about the conflict between us
What are we fighting, fighting for?
What's the point of this battle we're engaged in?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Please inform me
Lost in the symmetry
Trapped in the intricate cycle of our relationship
