Changelings
Gazelle Twin Lyrics

In Gazelle Twin's song "Changelings", the lyrics seem to describe a feeling of isolation and loneliness, as the singer sits alone and waits for someone else to join them. The use of the phrase "lonely like a shadow" creates a sense of darkness and emptiness, as if the singer is a mere echo of something greater. The repetition of the phrase "you sit here a while" lends a melancholic tone to the lyrics, as if the singer is resigned to waiting for someone who may never come.

As the lyrics progress, there seems to be a sense of inevitability and change. The singer and the person they are waiting for have both seen the end of the world and will disappear before the next star rises. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for the fragility of life and how everything is impermanent. The repetition of the phrase "changing over and again" suggests that despite the cyclical nature of life, there is always something new and different to experience.

The final lines of the song, "So you go feel the Son / I'll watch you knowing all your cheaters and liars" appear to be a direct address to the person the singer is waiting for. It's unclear who the "Son" refers to - it could be interpreted as God, or as a reference to the sun - but the line appears to suggest that the person is going to seek something out while the singer watches, aware of their flaws and lies. The use of the word "watch" implies a sense of detachment and distance, as if the singer knows they are separate from the other person and their journey.
