The only album to be recorded by OP8 was the highly experimental Slush. It got high critical acclaim, although was never destined to be a commercial success.
Lost in Space
OP8 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are the one thing that keeps me smiling
That's why I'm always wishing hard for you
'Cause your life shines so bright
I don't feel no solitude
You are my first star at night
I'd be lost in space without you
And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do
Feels just so fine
When we touch the sky me and you
This is my idea of heaven
Why can't it always be so good
But it's alright, I know you're out there
Doing what you've gotta do
You are my soul satellite
I'd be lost in space without you
And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do
And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do
And I'll never lose my faith in you
And I'll never lose my faith in you
The lyrics to "Lost in Space" by OP8 depict a deep, emotional connection between two individuals. The singer expresses their exhaustion with the "me first" mentality often present in society, but finds solace in the presence of the other person. They believe that the person's light shines so brightly that they never feel alone, even in the vast expanse of space. Without them, the singer would truly be lost.
The singer continues to express their devotion to the other person, stating that they will never lose their faith in them. They question how they will ever get to heaven if they do lose faith, emphasizing the importance of this connection to their spiritual and emotional wellbeing. The idea of touching the sky with the person they love is their idea of heaven, and they long for it to always be so good.
The lyrics of this song are a beautiful tribute to the power of love and the importance of deep, meaningful relationships in our lives. The idea of being lost in space without someone is a powerful metaphor for the feeling of isolation and disconnection we can experience without the support of those we love. The powerful connection expressed in this song is inspiring, and serves as a reminder of the importance of cultivating and cherishing relationships with those we care about.
