Soft Light
Frausdots Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Close the curtains
Flick off the soft light if you want to see me
In the morning lies will certainly be dancing across your face like an angle
[Chorus]
Reject it
Delete it
Accept it
Conceal it
Deny it
Believe it
I don't want to live forever baby
I don't want to take another step
I don't want to live forever baby
[Repeat: x2]
There you are
Here I am
Turn off the water
Close the curtains
Flick off the soft soft light
Now you see me
Those are saying
This will all end bad
And I am as lost as a man can be now
[Chorus]
Reject it
Delete it
Control it
Accept it
Conceal it
Deny it
Believe it
I don't want to live forever baby
I don't want to break another heart
I don't want to live forever baby
I don't want to live forever baby
I don't want to live forever baby
No
I don't want to live forever baby
I don't want to live forever baby
The lyrics to Frausdots's song "Soft Light" are emotional and introspective, touching on themes of mortality and the desire for connection. The opening lines, "Turn off the water, close the curtains, flick off the soft light if you want to see me," suggest a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, with the singer asking for a certain level of privacy in order to reveal themselves fully. The following line, "In the morning lies will certainly be dancing across your face like an angle," is more cryptic, but lends a sense of sadness or regret to the poem.
The chorus is a series of imperatives, urging the listener to "reject it, delete it, control it, accept it, conceal it, deny it, believe it." These verbs suggest a sense of inner turmoil or conflict, with the singer grappling with their emotions and trying to come to terms with a difficult situation. The lines "I don't want to live forever baby, I don't want to take another step" suggest a feeling of hopelessness or despair, with the singer feeling stuck or lost. The repeated "there you are, here I am" suggests a desire for connection, but also perhaps a sense of resignation or acceptance.
