Logh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
how the winter can stay this long and so cold
it gets worse
it only gets worse
and the weaker i get the deeper it bites
everything is on ice it's so cold outside
everything is on ice it's so cold outside
it's beginning to sink in
I guess you can turn into whatever you like
then what have i become?
a monster scary only to itself?
everything is on ice it's so cold outside
everything is on ice it's so cold outside
tonight I'll try to go outside
I'll close my eyes and hope i got it all right
and everything, everything will change
and someday I'll trick myself,
forget all this, rewrite
the whole thing and the ice will melt
and the winter will end and then
I'll be ok and then it will,
then it will be spring
again for a while
The Logh song "Weather Island" highlights the feeling of isolation and despair caused by a long and cold winter. The lyrics indicate that the singer is struggling to find the strength to endure the difficult weather conditions. They express confusion and frustration at how the winter can continue to linger and get worse with time. The cold seems to have a deep impact on the singer as they feel weakened and bitten.
The line "I guess you can turn into whatever you like, then what have I become?" raises the issue of how difficult it can be to maintain one's identity and sense of self when the environment is so harsh and unforgiving. The singer wonders if they have become a monster, but the meaning is open to interpretation. It could refer to a physical transformation (e.g., becoming cold and rugged like the winter environment) or a psychological one (being consumed by negative thoughts and emotions).
However, the singer holds onto hope that things will get better eventually. They try to imagine a world where everything changes, where the ice melts, and the winter ends. They express a desire to forget and rewrite everything, a sign of a person who is grappling with change and seeking a fresh start. Despite the current bleak situation, they maintain the idea that someday, the world can be okay again and that spring will arrive and stay for a while.
