daybreak
Horticulture Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The birds they’ll all go crazy
And they’ll never understand
They’ll never understand
We met and we were lovers
Under the cover
Of darkness
We never found our way
We hoped the light would take us
Before the dark erased us
But the light it never came our way
It never came our way

And while we wait for daybreak
As we patiently anticipate the arrival of sunrise
The birds they’ll all go crazy
The birds will become frenzied and wild
And they’ll never understand
And they will never comprehend
They’ll never understand
They will never grasp the depth of our situation
We met and we were lovers
We encountered each other and became romantically involved
Under the cover
In a hidden and secretive manner
Of darkness
During the nighttime or in a state of obscurity
We never found our way
We never discovered our path or direction
We never found our way
We never found a solution or resolution
We hoped the light would take us
We had the aspiration that illumination would guide us
Before the dark erased us
Prior to the darkness obliterating or destroying us
But the light it never came our way
However, the light never approached us
It never came our way
It never reached or affected us
