Tides
Megafaun Lyrics

The lyrics to Megafaun's song Tides seem to be centered around the idea of change - or lack thereof - in life's many forms. The line "Waves on shore, same as before, and evermore, one metaphor" speaks to the cyclical nature of the tides and how they serve as a metaphor for the ebb and flow of life. The tides may come and go, but their presence and patterns remain constant. The next line, "Gestures of tides, peace will reside, fall in perfect time, a wave goodbye," suggests that even amidst this consistency, there can still be moments of peace and closure as things come to an end. The final stanza, "One for yours, and one for mine, gesture of tides, peace will reside," again drives home this idea of finding peace and harmony even in the midst of change.

Another possible interpretation of these lyrics is that they are a commentary on how we, as humans, are often stuck in cyclical patterns, repeating the same behaviors and making the same mistakes over and over. The waves on shore are a constant reminder of this. However, the singer suggests that if we can learn to move in harmony with the rhythms of life - to fall in "perfect time" like the tides - we can find peace and closure in our lives.
