Icebird Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What I need
Is some strong advice
Better yet
I like to be comfortable
Give me the key to that 530
Tonight, let's be civilized
We live a job right
Not just yet, know it's time my darling
Took a left, and we hit the dead end
So we went, but I think we should that again
If you got time, then just roll on by
When you arrive, you'll see I'm in no condition to drive
How these words drive you wild
I need to love you, drowning in light
Tonight, let's be civilized
We live a job right
I just can't put you aside
Not just yet, know it's time my darling
Not just yet, know it's time my darling
know it's time my darling, know it's time my darling
know it's time
I'm alive, but I'm nowhere you know
I'm right here, but you're there that's impossible
Know I should have
I can't leave your side
Not just yet, plus I'm in no condition to drive.
In Icebird's song "Charmed Life," the lyrics reflect the singer's desire for comfort and strong advice, while also recognizing the need to stay with their partner despite reaching a dead end. The opening lines suggest a sense of dissatisfaction or emptiness that the singer is trying to fill, as they mention having just a bowl of rice and needing advice. Their longing for comfort is expressed through their desire for the key to a specific car, indicating that having access to this luxury vehicle would make them feel more secure and satisfied.
As the song progresses, the singer addresses their relationship with their partner. They express a need to live in the moment and be "civilized" with their partner, suggesting a desire for stability and normalcy in their relationship. The line "I just can't put you aside, not just yet" reflects the singer's reluctance to let go of their partner. Despite acknowledging that they have reached a dead end, the singer suggests that they should try again, indicating a desire to overcome obstacles in their relationship. The final lines of the song suggest that the singer is physically close to their partner, but emotionally distant, as they recognize that their condition prevents them from driving away and leaving their partner behind.
Overall, "Charmed Life" presents a complex portrayal of relationships and the desire for comfort and stability. It explores the tension between staying with someone because of a sense of obligation or comfort, and the desire to move on and find something better.
