Lighthouse
Psychotic Apes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I remember your eyes
Every time I think to get astray
Oh, I can not say goodbye
And then I see
I realize
They are to me
A bright lighthouse
Coming from inside my mind
And I feel the call of the abyss
Filling all my empty life
I think of you
The light of your smile
It beacon me
It makes me wake up
Lost in the middle of the maze
You are my only way out
My Ariadne wire
My only escape to survive
Lost in the middle of the ocean
Dive right into the unknown
You are my harbor, my lifeboat
And all my reason to move…
Move on
When I start to drift on the waves
Losing me more each time
Realize that I am anchored
In the essence of your life
And then I turn
My face to the lighthouse
That leads my soul
Through the way of the life
The lyrics of Psychotic Apes' song "Lighthouse" convey a deep sense of emotional attachment and reliance on someone or something as a guiding force in one's life. The singer describes a recurring struggle to escape from something, possibly a difficult situation or personal demons. However, whenever they attempt to run away, they are reminded of the person's eyes, likely someone they have an intense connection with. This realization prevents them from saying goodbye and compels them to stay.
Throughout the song, the singer uses the metaphor of a lighthouse to represent this person who serves as their guiding light and source of comfort. Just like a lighthouse serves as a beacon of hope and guidance to ships lost at sea, this person's presence provides clarity and direction for the singer. Their eyes are described as a bright lighthouse, illuminating the darkness and offering reassurance.
The singer also alludes to the internal struggles they face, as symbolized by a siren song and the call of the abyss. These challenges threaten to consume their life and leave them feeling empty. However, thinking of this person, their light and the warmth of their smile, acts as a powerful antidote. It brings them back to reality and helps them awaken from their metaphorical slumber.
The lyrics further emphasize the symbiotic nature of the relationship between the singer and this person. The metaphors of a maze and being lost in the middle of the ocean highlight the singer's feelings of confusion and uncertainty. Yet, the person they rely on is portrayed as their only way out, their guiding thread, their salvation. They are depicted as a harbor, a lifeboat, and their reason for moving forward.
In the final verse, the singer becomes aware that they are anchored in the essence of this person's life. Their connection runs deep, and it grounds them amidst the difficulties they face. The lighthouse is invoked again as a representation of the person's essence, leading their soul through the twists and turns of life. Ultimately, the lyrics convey a message of reliance, gratitude, and a profound emotional attachment to someone who acts as a guiding light and source of strength.

Every time I try to run away
Whenever I attempt to escape my problems
I remember your eyes
I recall the way you look at me
Every time I think to get astray
Whenever I contemplate going off course
Oh, I can not say goodbye
I find it impossible to bid farewell
And then I see
In that moment, I comprehend
I realize
I come to understand
They are to me
You mean everything to me
A bright lighthouse
An illuminating beacon
Every time I hear the siren song
Whenever I am seduced by temptation
Coming from inside my mind
Originating within my thoughts
And I feel the call of the abyss
And I sense the allure of emptiness
Filling all my empty life
Consequently saturating my hollow existence
I think of you
You occupy my thoughts
The light of your smile
The radiance emitted by your smile
It beacon me
It guides me like a shining signal
It makes me wake up
It compels me to become aware
Lost in the middle of the maze
Confused amidst a complex system
You are my only way out
You represent my sole escape
My Ariadne wire
My lifeline, providing guidance
My only escape to survive
My solitary means of enduring
Lost in the middle of the ocean
Adrift in an expanse of uncertainty
Dive right into the unknown
Plunge headfirst into uncharted territory
You are my harbor, my lifeboat
You serve as my refuge, my salvation
And all my reason to move…
And the motivation behind my actions
Move on
To continue forward
When I start to drift on the waves
As I begin to float aimlessly
Losing me more each time
Slowly losing my sense of self
Realize that I am anchored
Recognize that I am secured
In the essence of your life
Within the very core of your existence
And then I turn
At that point, I redirect myself
My face to the lighthouse
My attention towards the guiding light
That leads my soul
That guides my innermost being
Through the way of the life
Along the path of existence
