Rosetta
Kyan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

My dead ones are living
My selfish are giving
Free men walk my prison
My demons in heaven
I don't speak without your words in my mouth
I need you right now

Placebo

I need you
To need me
Believe me
My blood's thin like water
You thicken this water
I can't speak without your words in my mouth
I need you right now

You translate so I can understand
What it means to be a better man
Rosetta
Rosetta

The temple I lived in
Is distant
Disappearing
My sins wandering lost
In this forest of yours
I'm nothing without
Your words in my mouth
I need your right now

You translate so I can understand
What it means to be a better man
Rosetta
Rosetta

I left roses on rosetta's door step
Do you even know my name rosetta?

You're my rosetta stone
So I wanna take you home

Overall Meaning

In "Rosetta," Kyan sings about the importance of communication and understanding in relationships. He uses powerful metaphors to convey how much he depends on the other person to make sense of the world around him. The first verse explores the conflicting emotions within himself, how his dead and selfish parts coexist with his giving and free parts. He then contrasts this inner turmoil with the external changes he sees - free men walking his prison and his demons being in heaven. The chorus emphasizes how important the other person's words are to him, and how they give him a sense of identity and clarity. This theme is repeated in the second verse, where Kyan compares the temple he once lived in to a distant memory, and his sins to be wandering in the other person's forest. He once again speaks about how lost he feels without the other person's words in his mouth.
