Arabic Hearing
Lippie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The time it passes away
My love is hard
You'll never feel the same
I will never find the peace,
The time my heart belongs to me
I will never be happy
I want you to live, I want you to feel
I want you to share, I want you to be
Our minds, Our bodies
A series of flying walles
I can see them from here,
I can almost touch them …
Mindless symphony
Call of the wild
Wind under waterfall
Eye of the child
Child of the eyeless storm
brewed by the sea
Whale of my wonderment
Teach me to sing.
Instrument, of deepest calm
Of healing bomb
The astronaut's psalm
Son of the sun
Friend of the wind
Life of the moon
Reborn once again
I will never find the peace,
The time my heart belongs to me
I will never be happy
If I am afraid
I want you to share, I want you to feel
I want you to be
Our minds, Our bodies
A series of flying walles
I can see them from here,
I can almost touch them …
In Lippie's song "Arabic Hearing," the lyrics reflect feelings of emotional turmoil and a longing for connectedness. The opening lines express an unwillingness to forgive the past, indicating that the past may still be affecting the present. The following lines suggest a desire for love, but that it may be difficult to attain or reciprocate. The verse seems to be expressing a sense of being stuck and unable to move on.
The chorus repeats the idea that peace and happiness may be elusive, but it also introduces a sense of wanting to help someone else find those things. The lines "I want you to live, I want you to feel / I want you to share, I want you to be" convey a sense of empathy and a desire to connect with someone else.
The next section of the song introduces a series of images that suggest a connection to nature and a search for deeper meaning. The "flying walles" may be interpreted as a metaphor for transcendence or a spiritual experience. The "mindless symphony" and "call of the wild" suggest that there may be wisdom to be found in nature. The lines "Child of the eyeless storm / brewed by the sea" may be interpreted as a metaphor for the creative process or for finding inspiration in adversity.
The second half of the song repeats the chorus and ends on a hopeful note, with the suggestion that connecting with others and finding a sense of purpose can lead to new beginnings.
