Sparks
Röyksopp Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No matter gay or grim,
It's those tiny little sparks
Daily life that makes me
Forget my wounded heart

It doesn't matter when,
It may rain or it may shine
Blurry memories of us
Come back from time to time

No matter gay or grim,
It's those tiny little sparks
Daily life that makes me
Forget my sulky heart

It doesn't matter when,
It may rain or it may shine
But you will always be here
Stored inside my mind

Come, I'll give you all my love
Suck some air
Tell me what I'm dreaming of
Oh, whoa, oh....

Maybe within a thousand years
You'll be here
Maybe within a thousand tears
Oh, whoa, oh.....





Can I be so alone?
Can I be so alone?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Röyksopp's song Sparks describe the power of small, everyday moments and memories to help heal a broken heart. The lines "No matter gay or grim, it's those tiny little sparks, daily life that makes me forget my wounded heart" suggest that regardless of whether life is happy or difficult, it is the small moments that bring joy and healing. The repetition of the chorus underscores this idea, emphasizing the importance of these "tiny little sparks" and suggesting that they are what truly matter in life.


The lyrics also touch on the idea of the past and how memories can be both comforting and painful. The lines "Blurry memories of us, come back from time to time" suggest that even though the relationship is over, the memories still linger and affect the singer. However, despite the pain these memories might bring, the singer is willing to hold onto them because they are a part of who they are and what they have experienced in life.

Is it possible that I'm completely isolated from others?
