Passage
H.Garden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I followed a sign, a pattern that bends
On the roads with abrupt ends
Just leave me hanging upside down
The blind is leading the blind
And I stared through the window of the world

A painting without a frame
From an artist without a name
A brush with the colours of the invisible
A blind is leading the blind
And I stared through the window of the world

Pin me down with nails
On an outward passage someone sails
It will never ever make sense
Life time prisoners behind this fence
And I stared through the window of the world
And I stared through the window of the world
I stared myself blind

Pieces of dreams become reality
Pieces of reality become dreams





And I stared through the horror
And I stared through the horror of the world

Overall Meaning

In "Passage", H.Garden explores the themes of uncertainty and confusion through metaphorical language that creates a vivid mental image of a person traversing a difficult path. The opening lines speak of following a pattern that bends, which suggests that the singer is attempting to find their way through a difficult situation. The reference to the roads with abrupt ends indicates that the path ahead is not clear, and the singer is struggling to make sense of it all.


The metaphor of being hung upside down creates a feeling of disorientation, which is fitting for the subject matter. The singer is lost and doesn't know which way to turn. The reference to the blind leading the blind adds to the sense of confusion and suggests that no one has a clear understanding of what's going on.


The final lines of the first stanza, "And I stared through the window of the world," suggest that the singer is trying to make sense of the world around them but doesn't quite understand what they're seeing. The metaphor of a painting without a frame from an artist without a name adds to the sense that the world is chaotic and confusing.


The chorus features the repeated line of "And I stared through the window of the world," which reinforces the feeling of being lost and unsure of what's happening. The reference to pinning someone down with nails suggests that the situation is desperate and that people are trapped. The line "Life time prisoners behind this fence" further emphasizes the idea that the situation is dire.


The final lines of the chorus, "And I stared through the horror of the world", highlight the fact that the world can be a terrifying place, and it's easy to get lost in fear and confusion. The final stanza, with its dreamlike language, suggests that reality and fantasy are difficult to distinguish from one another.


Overall, "Passage" is a complex and thought-provoking song that explores themes of uncertainty, confusion, and fear in a poetic and evocative way.


Line by Line Meaning

I followed a sign, a pattern that bends
I followed a path that is not straightforward, it bends and twists


On the roads with abrupt ends
On these paths, there are sudden stops and dead ends


Just leave me hanging upside down
I feel lost and confused


The blind is leading the blind
People who do not know what they are doing are leading each other


And I stared through the window of the world
I observed the world, its beauty and confusion


A painting without a frame
Something beautiful that is incomplete


From an artist without a name
The creator of this beautiful thing is unknown


A brush with the colours of the invisible
The colours used to create this beautiful thing are not visible to the naked eye


Pin me down with nails
I feel trapped and helpless


On an outward passage someone sails
Someone is going on a journey


It will never ever make sense
This journey will never be fully understood


Life time prisoners behind this fence
We are trapped in our own lives, unable to escape


And I stared myself blind
I have observed the world so much that I am now overwhelmed and cannot see clearly anymore


Pieces of dreams become reality
Sometimes our dreams come true


Pieces of reality become dreams
Sometimes our reality feels like a dream


And I stared through the horror
I have seen the horrible things in the world


And I stared through the horror of the world
I have seen and observed the world, both its beauty and horror
