Silver Lining
Go Cozy Lyrics

In the song, "Silver Lining" by Go Cozy, the singer is addressing someone who has left their company. The lyrics suggest that this person had a powerful presence, represented by the metaphor of hanging roots, but they have moved on, leaving only their summer glow behind. The singer's regard for this person is demonstrated by the reference to their "high highs", which suggests moments of extreme happiness or elation, but also by their willingness to endure the "lonely lows", implying that this relationship was not always easy.

Despite this person's departure, the singer seems to be very focused on the idea of the "summer glow". This is referred to three times in the chorus, and seems to represent something very positive about this person (perhaps their personality or their influence). Even as the singer acknowledges that the other person is gone, they cannot help but pay homage to this positive quality.

The second verse acknowledges that this person is now "resting soundly", and that even the "tidal waves" of life would not be able to take them away. The language here suggests a peacefulness; the singer seems to be relieved that the other person has found some kind of rest, though this prompts them to look forward to the morning and the brightness of the day ahead.

All in all, "Silver Lining" is a song that acknowledges the presence of someone who has now left, while still celebrating the positive aspects of who they were.
