Travel
Kapitol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The color of these violins
I wish I knew you
Your fit of insanity makes me sad
I wish you knew
Your music was to stay forever
I have no clue
If you know how much it matters
And I hope...
The lyrics of Kapitol's song "Travel" reflect on the pain of lost creativity and a desire for hope and understanding. The singer regrets not knowing the mysterious stranger who seemed to have such an affinity for the beauty of music that it could've been eternalized through their creations. The reference to the color of violins draws an analogy between the deep emotions stirred by the music and the depth of the color symbolizing passion and intensity. The singer seems to feel that if they had known the person and their struggles in life, perhaps they could have helped them remain connected to the creativity that gave them so much fulfillment.
The second stanza describes how the singer wishes that the person they are singing about knew that their music was valuable and could have stayed with the world forever. The choice of the word "insanity" to describe the person's inner turmoil reflects the deep emotions and almost frantic passion that went into their music. The singer laments that they have no idea if the person realized the significance of their creations and how much it mattered to others.
Overall, the lyrics of "Travel" express a longing for a lost time, a lost creation, and the pain of knowing that the full depth and beauty of someone's music is lost when they exit this world. It conveys a sense of loss and a yearning for understanding and meaning.
