Equinox
Reighnbeau Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All in the floor...
The coldest morn'
All in your arms
I crawl in
Hold me
Hold me
You walk in knowing
Dressed is the wettest stones that haunt me
I know
Dressed in your white coat in the dark
We both know better ... darkness
...and I want to stand
But it feels...
(Vocal chops)
Hold the phone
I come in slow
All in your arms
Crawl in, hold me
Hold me
The lyrics to Reighnbeau's song Equinox depict a scene where the singer finds solace and comfort in the arms of a loved one. The opening lines, "All in the floor... The coldest morn'," reveal a somber and melancholic setting, maybe a concrete floor or perhaps a metaphorical low point representing the singer's emotional state. However, in the ensuing lines, the singer seeks refuge in the loving arms of the person they cherish, pleading with them to "Hold me, hold me." The contrast between the cold and the warmth and the darkness and the light embodied by the person holding the singer are central themes of the song.
As the song progresses, the singer seems to be describing the darkness that consumes them, perhaps a form of depression or anxiety triggered by the wettest stones that haunt them, but their partner in the white coat provides some form of hope. "We both know better... darkness" suggests that the singer acknowledges the existence of their pain and their partner's, but they are choosing to soldier on together. The chopped vocal samples interspersed throughout the song add a haunting and ethereal quality that heightens the emotional impact of the lyrics.

All in the floor...
I am lying on the ground or floor
The coldest morn'
It is a very chilly, early morning
All in your arms
I find comfort and solace in your embrace
I crawl in
I move towards you with subservience
Hold me
I request you to keep me close and comfort me
Hold me
I plead you again to keep me close and comfort me
All in the dark
I am in a place devoid of light
You walk in knowing
You enter the dark space with awareness and familiarity
Dressed is the wettest stones that haunt me
The stones around me are drenched and evoke troubling memories
I know
I am aware of the situation and its implications
Dressed in your white coat in the dark
You appear in your white coat even in the absence of light
We both know better ... darkness
As we share the space devoid of light, we recognize its nature
...and I want to stand
I feel the urge to stand up and rise
But it feels...
However, I am held back by something
Hold the phone
Wait a moment
I come in slow
I approach you slowly and cautiously
All in your arms
I take refuge in your embrace again
Crawl in, hold me
I move towards you on all fours and beseech you to hold me
Hold me
I request you to embrace me again
