Better
Hot Shade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I tell you to go
I know that I need you
But you'll never know
It may be too obvius
But can't you see
You take me to places
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oooh-oh
When it hits me in slow motion
Then it's right where I belong
It runs deeper than an ocean
Now we've only just begun
When I'm underneath the surface
Will you ever let me go?
This could be better
Stronger, deeper than
And when I turn on the lights
Will I still be me
Thinking and dreaming
Of what it could be
Losing myself on the breath in between
The minute you stay and the second you leave
When it hits me in slow motion
Then it's right where I belong
It runs deeper than an ocean
Now we've only just begun
When I'm underneath the surface
Will you ever let me go?
This could be better
Stronger, deeper than
This could be better, stronger, deeper than I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, this could be better, stronger, deeper than
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, this could be better, stronger, deeper than I know
When it hits me in slow motion
Then it's right where I belong
It runs deeper than an ocean
Now we've only just begun
When I'm underneath the surface
Will you ever let me go?
This could be better
Stronger, deeper than
This could be better, stronger, deeper than I know

I want you to stay
I desire for you to remain in my life
But I tell you to go
Despite my desire for you to stay, I ask you to leave

Vocalization/Sound effect with no clear meaning
When it hits me in slow motion
When it occurs to me gradually
Then it's right where I belong
At that point, I feel I am in the right place

It is more profound than the sea
Now we've only just begun
Now, we have merely started

When I am below the superficial level
Will you ever let me go?
Would you ever release me?
This could be better
This has the potential to be improved
Stronger, deeper than
More robust, more profound than
And when I turn on the lights
And once I switch the lights on
Will I still be me
Would I remain as myself
Thinking and dreaming
Contemplating and visualizing
Of what it could be

Losing myself on the breath in between
Getting lost in the moments between
The minute you stay and the second you leave
The precise moment of your departure and arrival

Losing myself on
the breath inbetween
The minute you stay
and the second you leave
When it hits me in slow motion
Then it's right where I belong
It runs deeper than an ocean
Now we've only just begun
When I'm underneath the surface
Will you ever let me go?
This could be better,
stronger, deeper than
This could be better, stronger,

Then it's right where I belong
It runs deeper than an ocean
Now we've only just begun
When I'm underneath the surface
Will you ever let me go?
This could be better,
stronger, deeper than I know
This could be better, stronger,
