JUMP
Franja de Gaza Lyrics

The lyrics to "Jump" by Franja de Gaza speak about the desire to take a leap of faith and try again, despite the fear of failure or getting hurt. The first line, "I'm gonna fly again because I just can't feel it" suggests that the person feels disconnected from their current reality and wants to break free from it. The repetition of the line, "I'm gonna jump again into this old blue sky," reinforces the determination to take that leap and make things happen.

However, the second stanza reveals a sense of hesitation and fear of the unknown. The questions posed in the lines, "What if I hit the ground? If all these houses came closer?" suggests the fear of failure and the possibility of things not going as planned. Despite this fear, the person longs for the intimacy and connection they once had with a past lover. The lines, "Would I feel our naked bodies? Would I feel that heat again? Would I feel our bodies rising to the top of my refrain?" suggest a yearning for the physical and emotional closeness they once shared.

The final lines, "I'm flying for forgiveness and pain," suggest that the person is seeking redemption or closure through their actions. They are flying not just for themselves, but also to seek forgiveness or let go of the pain they may have caused themselves or others.
