Halcyon
Fuvk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Tell me about your day"
Flipping through your notes
We start to escalate again
I never seem to understand
Any of it in the end
I replay each moment slowly
In my mind i'd like to change
Everything i said that day
Talking on a summer night
"We can do it your way"
Turns into a fight
I start to raise my voice again
You never seem to understand
Any of it in the end
I replay each moment slowly
Frame by frame - a different story
In my mind i'd like to change
Everything i said that day
And i still remember every sentence
That i said that made you cry
And if i could go back to evening
in question
I'd do everything different this time
The lyrics of Fuvk's song Halcyon are about a couple who are experiencing communication issues. In the first verse, the couple is sitting at a coffee shop, and one of them asks to hear about the other's day. However, a conflict arises, and they begin to escalate quickly. The singer expresses their frustration that they never seem to understand each other, and they replay each moment frame by frame in their mind, wishing they could change what they said.
In the second verse, they are talking on a summer night, and once again, a discussion turns into a fight. The singer becomes agitated and raises their voice, but their partner still doesn't seem to comprehend what they are saying. The singer replays the conversation in their head, and they still remember every sentence that made their partner cry. They desperately wish they could go back and change everything.
The lyrics suggest that the couple is stuck in a cycle of conflicts and misunderstandings, and the singer longs for a time when they could communicate more effectively. The song is a melancholic reflection on a problematic relationship and the possibility of what could have been if they had communicated better.
