Gabe's Song
Fleece Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Black it out, curl up inside, we go
(bah doo, bah doo, bah doo, bah doo)
A heart, it lives and breaths
But most of all it makes anger fly
But new horizons change the way, I sigh
Undertow, undertow
Oh, you shock me darling
Undertow, undertow
Breathing feels so much harder now
Water lungs, isolation, we're bound
Swim surface now, don't you let coral take you low
Choking chone europhia, anchored
Oh, a fire's burning
Undertow, undertow
Oh, you shock me darling
Undertow, undertow
(Bass Solo)
Oh, a fire's burning,
Undertow, undertow,
Oh, you shock me darling,
Undertow, undertow
The lyrics to Fleece's song "Gabe's Song" depict a person on a lonely road, seeking comfort in their lullaby. The lyrics suggest that the heart is a complicated entity, capable of both love and anger, but ultimately new horizons can lead to a change in perspective. The metaphor of water is also used throughout the song, with references to drowning and being anchored, but also the potential to swim to the surface and escape the coral that threatens to pull them down.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, with the repetition of the words "Undertow, undertow" creating a sense of being pulled under by something powerful and overwhelming. The use of the word "fire" also adds to the intensity of the emotions being described, with a sense of both warmth and danger.
Overall, the lyrics suggest a journey of self-discovery and transformation, with the potential for both joy and pain along the way.

My lullaby, shines a lot on a lonely road
My soothing tune brings comfort on an empty journey
Black it out, curl up inside, we go
Retreat from the world and find solace within
(bah doo, bah doo, bah doo, bah doo)
Musical interlude
A heart, it lives and breaths
The heart is a vital organ
But most of all it makes anger fly
But emotions can lead to outbursts of rage
But new horizons change the way, I sigh
But changes in perspective can alter one's reaction to a situation
Oh, a fire's burning
Passion ignites
Undertow, undertow
A metaphor for feeling pulled under and overwhelmed
Oh, you shock me darling
The intensity of the emotion is surprising
Breathing feels so much harder now
Anxious thoughts make it difficult to breathe
Water lungs, isolation, we're bound
Feeling trapped and alone, suffocating like being underwater
Swim surface now, don't you let coral take you low
Rise above the negativity and don't let it consume you
Choking chone europhia, anchored
Feeling euphoric but also trapped
Oh, a fire's burning
The passion continues to blaze
Undertow, undertow
The overwhelming feeling persists
(Bass Solo)
An instrumental break
Oh, you shock me darling
The intensity of the emotion is surprising
Undertow, undertow
The overwhelming feeling persists

I hate you all. I literally can't get this song out of my head.
Also, make more music like this. This is fucking money. It could land you some big gigs if you do it right.ย
However, I guess the better message should be keep doin what you're doing. Your music is great and you all seem to have this enthusiasm to create original pieces that I am in awe of.
