Their music speaks to a post-millenial, post-digital urban ennui - non-belonging and the pure, absolute loneliness of crowds. It is about the interaction of accelerating technology and the inherent sense of a terminal decline between the physical and hyper real - between man and machine, our bodies, senses and the industrial substances and digital technologies we surround ourselves with.

Drift Away
Naked Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Twined us into one
But knots remember
To come undone
Slipping gently
Setting into sail
I tried to steady
To no avail
And if you walk away
Remember me as before
And if I go well
know I had to go
You drift away from me, now baby
Don't drift away from me
The fraying tether
Severs as we sleep
Sometimes forever
Cannot keep
Delta knows that
Rivers must part their ways
Into paths of change
'til all is emptied out to sea
The tide is changing
and you're gone
You drift away from me, now baby
You drift away from me
You just drift away
Something's not the same now, baby
Don't drift away from me
Once was not enough for love
Twice was not enough for love
But you're gone
You're gone away
You drift away from me, baby
You drift away from me
You just drift away
No, something's not the same now baby
Don't drift away from me
The lyrics of Naked's song "Drift Away" talk about a relationship that went south, despite the initial attempts to keep it intact. The first two lines of the song evoke the image of two people truly merged as one, but the knots that brought them together ultimately came undone, leaving them drifting apart. The singer expresses their regret and helplessness in the face of the dwindling love, unable to steady themselves or their relationship.
The emotions in the song deepen in the chorus when the singer pleads with their partner not to drift away from them. The lyrics seem to indicate that the other party has already started to let go, and it's too late for them to hold on any longer. The image of the fraying tether that severs while they sleep adds to the sense of inevitability and resignation.
The last two lines of the song bring the message home, as the singer acknowledges that once and twice were just not enough to sustain the love between them, and the other person is gone. Overall, the song is a poignant reminder of how love can be intense and beautiful, but it can also fade away in spite of our best efforts.
Line by Line Meaning
We tied together
We were joined together as one
Twined us into one
Our lives became intertwined and we were one entity
But knots remember
Despite being tied together, knots can loosen and come undone
To come undone
Our bond became fragile and we drifted apart
Slipping gently
Our attachment started to come apart slowly and softly
Setting into sail
We started to drift away as if we were a ship setting sail
I tried to steady
I attempted to keep our connection strong
To no avail
But my efforts were not successful
And if you walk away
In case you decide to leave me
Remember me as before
Please recall the memories we shared together
And if I go well
If I am the one who leaves
know I had to go
Understand that it was something I had to do
You drift away from me, now baby
You are slowly separating yourself from me, my dear
Don't drift away from me
Please don't go too far away from me
The fraying tether
The rope that binds us together is starting to come apart
Severs as we sleep
As we rest, our connection is being cut off
Sometimes forever
There are situations when separation is permanent
Cannot keep
Our bond is too fragile and cannot withstand the test of time
Delta knows that
The river delta is aware that
Rivers must part their ways
Rivers must diverge from each other to continue their flow
Into paths of change
They must move towards new directions
'til all is emptied out to sea
Until they reach the ocean and their journey comes to an end
The tide is changing
The situation is changing, and there is nothing we can do to stop it
and you're gone
And now you have left
Something's not the same now, baby
Things are different now, my dear
No, something's not the same now baby
No, things have changed and it's not the same anymore
Once was not enough for love
Our love was not satisfied with just one chance
Twice was not enough for love
Even two chances were not enough to make it work
But you're gone
But now that you have left
You just drift away
You just slowly moved away from me
No, something's not the same now baby
No, the situation has changed, my dear
Don't drift away from me
Please stay close to me, my love
You drift away from me, baby
You are slowly moving away from me, my love
You drift away from me
You are slowly drifting farther away from me
