Float
OWEL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
from my most favorite dreams.
We meet as my body retreats,
and I'm the most charming that I've never been.
Please pull me under
for one more embrace.
For one small moment.
For one more embrace.
just mindlessly wilting away.
And I desperately wait for the night
for the ghost with the most beautiful eyes.
Please pull me under
for one more embrace.
For one small moment.
For one more embrace.
I have finally built up the nerves
to be brave and solemnly dive into her.
As i stand where the ground meets the sky,
gazing down with a grin I declare my goodbye.
Please pull me under
for one more embrace.
For one small moment.
For one more embrace.
Here I will float away in faith,
I'm floating to you.
Here I will float away in faith,
I'm floating to you.
Here I will
float away in faith,
I'm floating
to you.
The lyrics of OWEL's "Float" describe a person who longs to be with their dream love. The singer knows the face of their love from their dreams and is eager to embrace them. The person feels alive and charming when they are with their love in their dreams, but come their waking life, they become lifeless and wilted, waiting for the night where they can see the love once again.
The singer then decides to take a brave leap of faith and dive into their dream to be with their love. They stand where the ground meets the sky, looking down as they declare their goodbye to reality. They ask their love to "pull me under for one more embrace" before they "float away in faith" to be with their love.
The lyrics indicate that the singer feels incomplete and lifeless without their dream love. They long to escape their colorless days and be with their love. In the end, the singer decides to leave their reality behind to be with their love in their dream world.
