Disappear
Oceania Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I took a deep breath and face the highway
Under a sky of hope
As all the bridges collapse in silence
This emptiness feels like home

Hey can you take me for a ride
Far away from here
I wanna step into the light
And disappear
And disappear
Safety was bordering on disaster
I see no pot of gold
Why should I sit through the same old patterns
While answers remain unknown

Hey can you take me for a ride
Far away from here
I wanna step into the light
And disappear
And disappear
The candle's burning as I go faster
'Cause sometimes it's not enough




To know dishonesty at first sight and
Just swallow the lies I'm told

Overall Meaning

The song "Disappear" by Oceania is a melancholic and reflective track that talks about the desire to escape from a dark and lonely place. The first verse starts with the singer taking a deep breath and facing the highway, implying that they are about to embark on a journey. The "sky of hope" represents how the singer sees their future as uncertain, yet promising. However, they soon realize that the bridges that they have built through this hope and expectation are collapsing in silence. The emptiness they feel which they refer to as "home" could be understood as the hopelessness and despair the singer has become accustomed to.


The chorus questions the listener's ability to help them escape from their current situation. They want to step into the light and disappear from their bitter reality. Safety, in this context, has led to disaster as no pot of gold lies at the end of the rainbow for them. Sitting through the same old patterns while answers remain vague has resulted in nothing but discontentment. The second verse is darker than the first as the singer starts to behave recklessly. The candle burning as they speed away reflects how they are willing to take risks to escape their reality. Sometimes knowing dishonesty at first sight is not enough, and they feel forced to swallow the lies they are told.


Overall, "Disappear" by Oceania is a poignant representation of how someone feels after prolonged exposure to loneliness, uncertainty, and disillusionment. The lyrics depict a reality where hope once existed and was replaced by a pervasive sense of emptiness. The singer is tired of waiting for things to change and reaches a point where they are willing to take extreme measures to escape it.

I took a deep breath and face the highway
I mustered up courage and decided to confront my problems


Under a sky of hope
There's a glimmer of optimism despite the challenges


As all the bridges collapse in silence
Everything is falling apart and I feel helpless


This emptiness feels like home
I am so used to feeling sad and lonely that it's become familiar


Hey can you take me for a ride
I need someone to help me escape my problems


Far away from here
I want to leave this place behind and start fresh


I wanna step into the light
I want to leave the darkness of my current situation


And disappear
I want to escape everything and start anew


Safety was bordering on disaster
Things seemed stable but were actually about to fall apart


I see no pot of gold
There's no reward at the end of this struggle

There are still so many unanswered questions and uncertainties


The candle's burning as I go faster
I'm rushing towards a solution even if I'm burning out along the way


'Cause sometimes it's not enough
Merely acknowledging a problem isn't always sufficient


To know dishonesty at first sight and
Being aware of lies and deception from the start


Just swallow the lies I'm told
Being forced to accept falsehoods and feeling trapped
