Desolation
Lucy Furr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And there's no escape in here
Sitting on the floor, surrounded by ashes and empty glasses
I wonder: how low will i go? Why should i smile? How long is this fuckin' life?
Shall i close my eyes or keep them opened?
There's no point in asking these questions, i should just act and do something to start the change
There's no point in asking these questions, i should just act... to start the change
how low will i go? It's my only question, I'm craven and i just keep wondering:
how low will i go? I'm a coward and i just still standing
Years fell like days, it's the reason for my stillness
I've built stuff with no projects
Sitting on the floor, surrounded by ashes and empty glasses
how low will i go? It's my only question, I'm craven and i just keep wondering:
how low will i go? I'm a coward and i just still standing
how low will i go? It's my only question, I'm craven and i just keep wondering:
how low will i go? I'm a coward and i just still standing
Caught between two forces, the only thing i see is desolation
Neither up nor down, the pressure halts me there
And there's no space for thinking
Except for just one question: how low will i go?
The lyrics to Lucy Furr's song Desolation express a sense of hopelessness and stagnation. The singer feels trapped and unable to escape their current situation. The passage of time is described as slow and painful, with days feeling like years and years feeling like days. They are surrounded by reminders of their failures, symbolized by the ashes and empty glasses. The constant question the singer asks themselves is how low they will go - how far into despair and cowardice will they sink before they take action and start to make a change.
The phrase "caught between two forces" implies a feeling of being pulled in different directions, unable to move forward. The pressure of this situation halts the singer and does not allow for productive thinking. They feel stuck and can only focus on the question of how low they can go. The repeated line "I'm a coward and I just still standing" emphasizes the feeling of being stuck and immobile, unable to take action or make a change.
