I Create Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is a part of me that's died before with this,
and i think i can prove that it's actually dead.
How ever able, i'm not willing to go through with this
. How ever sure I was, I take it all back.
The lyrics to I Create's song "Adrift" convey a sense of regret and hesitation. The opening line sets a tone of disbelief and disappointment, which becomes more intense as the verse progresses. The singer is struggling with emotions related to past experiences, some of which may be painful or traumatic. The line "There is a part of me that's died before with this" suggests that the singer has been through similar situations before and may have been hurt in the process. The phrase "I think I can prove that it's actually dead" indicates a desire to avoid repeating these past mistakes.
The chorus contains a sense of ambivalence, hinting that the singer may be torn between two opposing thoughts or emotions. They are "able" to proceed with a particular action or decision, but "not willing" to do so. This internal battle may stem from a fear of negative consequences or a lack of confidence in their abilities.
Towards the end of the verse, the singer admits that they were once "sure" of their conviction, but have since changed their mind. This implies a shift in perspective or worldview, and possibly a deeper understanding of the complexity of the situation at hand. Overall, the lyrics to "Adrift" suggest a sense of reflection and internal struggle that many listeners may relate to in their own lives.
