Windowsills
Gentle Robot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm losing grip of myself on this road
I'm walking through the dark in the cold
Struggling to think of what to say when I'm done listening
Legs can't stop trembling, I try to ease the shivering
But I'm melting on windowsills
Melting on windowsills
Does this mean as much to you, as it does to me
I have a feeling I'm alone in this reality
Does this mean as much to you, as it does to me
I have a feeling I'm alone in this reality
Does this mean as much to you, as it does to me
I have a feeling I'm alone in this reality




Does this mean as much to you, as it does to me
I have a feeling I'm alone in this reality

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Gentle Robot's song "Windowsills" depict a sense of isolation, uncertainty, and vulnerability. The singer describes feeling lost and disconnected while walking through darkness and coldness, struggling to find the right words to express themselves. The imagery of trembling legs and shivering symbolizes the singer's fear and anxiety. The repetition of the phrase "melting on windowsills" suggests a feeling of emotional melting or breaking down, as if they are slowly losing themselves.


The repeated question, "Does this mean as much to you, as it does to me?" reflects the singer's longing for validation and connection. They wonder if their emotions and experiences hold the same significance for someone else, hoping to find solace as they navigate their own reality. However, the underlying feeling is one of loneliness and a worry that their reality and feelings may not resonate with others. It is a reflection on the inherent subjectivity of experiences and the fear of being alone in one's perception of the world.
