Seasons
Makari Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Together in the moonlight?
Painting the canvas-sky
With visions of our new life
But I'm afraid it was in vain
You've gone away
And without you
Those stars have lost their meaning
What about the times you said
You'd stay and fight for what's ahead?
And through each other we would mend
Together we'd embrace the end
How will I find my way back
From the dream you pulled me into
Like the summer breeze
We made up all the brightest colors
Of the afternoon
Casting our shadows like facades
On the walls of my room
I sowed myself right into you
Just as the autumn flowers bloomed
What about the times you said
You'd stay and fight for what's ahead?
And through each other we would mend
Together we'd embrace the end
And when I was robbed of joy
You were there to block the noise
Without your shine, without your voice
It seems to me I have no choice
When we part from one another
Have we truly left each other?
Or someday may we start again
With all new bones and fingerprints?
Remember when we'd lie
Together in the moonlight?
What about the times you said
You'd stay and fight for what's ahead?
And through each other we would mend
Together we'd embrace the end
And when I was robbed of joy
You were there to block the noise
Without your shine, without your voice
It seems to me I have no choice
The autumn flowers have withered away
"Seasons" by Makari is a song that speaks to the complexity of relationships and the emotions that come with their changing seasons. The song begins by reminiscing about a past love and the memories of lying "together in the moonlight." The imagery of "painting the canvas-sky with visions of our new life" illuminates the hopefulness and optimism of their young love, while also highlighting the fragility of creating much of that vision simply out of imagination.
The first verse leads into a chorus that speaks to how the loss of that love has caused everything to seem different. The stars, once imbued with meaning, are now hollow and meaningless, an echo of a past that doesn't exist anymore. The second verse poses the question of what happens after a split. Will they ever see each other again? Can they start again? Is it possible to put aside the past and move forward?
Throughout the song, the theme of the changing seasons reinforces more than just the passage of time. The changing of seasons reflects the ways relationships change, grow, wither and disappear over time. The lyrics are a mix of emotions, some hopeful, some melancholic, and all deeply reflective. The introspective tone of the song provides a space for listeners to consider their own relationships and how they are grow or diminish over time.

Remember when we'd lie
Recalling past memories with a loved one
Together in the moonlight?
Memories of spending time with said loved one at night
Painting the canvas-sky
Creating a unique landscape in their mind
With visions of our new life
Dreaming and planning of a future together
But I'm afraid it was in vain
Realization that the dream was unrealistic
You've gone away
Their loved one left them
And without you
The absence of a significant other
Every sunset looks the same
Lack of color and life after their split
Those stars have lost their meaning
The night sky has lost its beauty and wonder
What about the times you said
Questioning the promises their loved one made
You'd stay and fight for what's ahead?
Their loved one promised to stay and persevere through tough times
And through each other we would mend
Together repairing and growing from past mistakes
Together we'd embrace the end
Facing whatever trials come their way united
How will I find my way back
Feeling lost and unmoored
From the dream you pulled me into
Blaming their loved one for their previous state of bliss and joy
Like the summer breeze
Their happiness was fleeting and hardly even truly existed
We made up all the brightest colors
Their love was vibrant, and full of life
Of the afternoon
Referencing a particular moment in time when they were together
Casting our shadows like facades
Symbolism of how they pretended to be happy together to others
On the walls of my room
Their sadness is internal and private
I sowed myself right into you
Giving themselves fully physically and emotionally to their loved one
Just as the autumn flowers bloomed
Referencing how their love bloomed and matured like the flowers in the fall
And when I was robbed of joy
Feeling like they lost their happiness because their loved one left
You were there to block the noise
Their loved one used to be a source of comfort and support
Without your shine, without your voice
Their life lost its luster and meaning once the loved one was gone
It seems to me I have no choice
Feeling stuck and unable to move on
When we part from one another
When they separate from their loved one
Have we truly left each other?
Questioning if they are still connected even though they are no longer together
Or someday may we start again
Hopeful that the relationship can be rekindled in the future
With all new bones and fingerprints?
Seeing the potential for a renewed and different relationship
