Puerto Cabezas NI
Lewis Del Mar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm drown in you
Colors mixing on a hot day, a hot day
In the streets without the street lights
And with no power lines
I am electric, I'm electrical
I finally found the rest of me
My dance hall is all bodies now
And they're burning sugar sweet, so sweet
And my old world is on fire now
As I move into the heat, the heat
High my blood, fresh fish and sticky plantains
I am bound to you
By the mystery of my own name
My dance hall is all bodies now
And that burning sugars sweet, so sweet
And my old world is on fire now
As I move into the heat
As I move into the heat, the heat
In the streets without the street lights
And no power lines
I am electric, I am electric
In the streets without the street lights
And no power lines
I am electric, electric
In the streets that are my insides
My father never lost his mind
How come I never call you now?
Why do I never call you now?
Bottom of the ocean

I'm drown in you
I am completely consumed and enraptured by this experience
Colors mixing on a hot day, a hot day
The vibrant hues and sensations of this place and moment are vividly blending together in the heat
In the streets without the street lights

The vibrant, pulsating energy of this place has turned it into a dance floor filled with writhing, sweating bodies
And they're burning sugar sweet, so sweet
The heat and passion of the moment is so intense, it's like being immersed in molten sugar
And my old world is on fire now
The familiar world and way of life I knew before is becoming a distant memory as I embrace this new experience
As I move into the heat, the heat
As I surrender to the intensity of the moment, I am consumed by its fiery passion
High my blood, fresh fish and sticky plantains
The richness and vitality of the local cuisine only heighten my senses and connection to this land
I am bound to you
I am inextricably tied to this place and experience in a way that transcends physical boundaries

My father never lost his mind
My sense of self and identity is rooted in the legacy and traditions passed down to me by my father
How come I never call you now?
Despite my connection to my past and family, the pull of this new experience has caused me to neglect staying in touch with them
Why do I never call you now?
I am grappling with feelings of guilt and conflict between embracing this new adventure and staying true to my roots

This phrase is a metaphor for the powerful and consuming feelings that have taken hold of my being, and the depths to which they have overtaken me
