Equilibrium
Honey Maid Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Early to faith, to fallen
Only to make an appearance
Only your life is sold out

Counter defensive mood
Whatever you speak
you're moaning
This verse has needs, distorted

Once over the breach,
Once over
Now we set the mood

INSTRUMENTAL

Where ever the wind may blow it
Holding the candle, early
See that you don't become me
I am not you
Dig through the deepest sorrow
Shove it in deep tomorrow
Ever the apple polisher
In the need of fruit
Know where to base importance
Kinda what Nixon told us
Bit off the perfect bullet

INSTRUMENTAL

She buried the caution light
We'll drowned in the foresight, likely
Revamp the fuck flick, honey
Nothing is taboo
Audit the sin for audit
Survey says, good morning
Out of trifle habit
I'm needing something more
Early to faith to fallen
Only to make an appearance

Only your safe is sold out
Counter-defensive man

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Honey Maid's song Equilibrium are quite abstract and open to interpretation. In the first verse, the singer seems to be reflecting on their past, acknowledging that they were once faithful but have since fallen from that path. They only appear for fleeting moments and their life feels like it has been sold out. The second verse seems to be more introspective as the singer discusses their defensive mood and tendency to moan. They feel like their needs are distorted and they need to set a different mood.

The song then goes into an instrumental break before returning to another verse in which the singer seems to be cautioning someone else. They urge them to hold onto their own identity and not become like the singer. They encourage them to face their deepest sorrows and not be afraid to be different. The next few lines are a bit difficult to interpret but seem to suggest that the person should focus on what is truly important rather than following others blindly. The final lines of the song suggest that the singer is still searching for something more in their life despite their current state of equilibrium.

Line by Line Meaning

Early to faith, to fallen
Starting faithful, but eventually falling

Only to make an appearance
Only presenting a facade

Only your life is sold out
Giving up your real life for something false

Counter defensive mood
Being defensive and on guard

Whatever you speak you're moaning
Only speaking negatively

This verse has needs, distorted
This part of the song is complicated and unclear

Once over the breach, Once over
Getting past a difficult situation

Now we set the mood
Creating a certain atmosphere

Wherever the wind may blow it
Not having control over outcomes

Holding the candle, early
Trying to be optimistic

See that you don't become me
Don't follow in my bad example
