Blue Lights
Fictional Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See the ferries passing by
Waiting for the final day
Which almost never comes
I see blue lights in your eyes
Reflections of another land
Our golden sun will rise
I will never understand
Why I've lost you
Remembering your face again
When I found you
I see blue lights in your eyes
Reflections of another land
Our golden sun will rise
I will wait untill the end
Your hair still smells like the sea
Your blue lips are so cold
I would really die to see
Your pale skin in the light
I see blue lights in your eyes
Reflections of another land
Our golden sun will rise
I will wait untill the end
So your'e gone forever
Will never be awake again
But I am still waiting
For the day which never comes

This song came up for me randomly on my playlist yesterday and I haven't heard it in forever, it's always nice when songs you loved just randomly pop up years later 💜

I always danced to this song. Fictional played live at a club called Barbarella, located in downtown Orlando, Florida during 2001.
The vocalist had good stage presence, but he was reading song lyrics from a small notebook.
The show sounded great, and the band chilled in the bar afterwards.

Fictional was created by Gerrit Thomas of Funker Vogt and Ravenous. Tim Fockenbrock, the vocalist here, was also the vocalist for Ravenous.
The show at Barbarella was only one of two times that Fictional performed live in the States, but it was also the only show where Funker Vogt, Fictional, and Ravenous played the same night.
I was in Tampa, but had the flu, so I missed out.
@WinstonVanCoon
Thank you, I'd forgotten Garret Thomas was Funker Vogt, Ravenous, and Fictional's songwriter.

I used to dance to this at The Church nightclub in Denver Colorado years ago.

This song reminds me of the 1980’s-1990’s “Medieval” style tv shows. The one’s that are about the couples who are “destined to be together, and nothing could tear them apart.” The shows that were always filmed during twilight or sunset.
