Vortex
Søika Lyrics

The lyrics to Søika's song "Vortex" seem to depict a dream-like state where the singer feels lost and disconnected. The first verse portrays a dream where faces lead the singer away, as if they are being pulled into a vortex. The repetition of the phrase "ходят, ходят" (walk, walk) adds to the sense of aimlessness and confusion in this dream. Additionally, the singer mentions "туманный омут" (foggy whirlpool), suggesting that their thoughts are swirling and unclear.

The chorus of the song reflects the longing for something or someone that has been taken away. The lines "Цель - биться" (The goal - to fight) and "Ты - птица" (You - a bird) highlight a desire for freedom and identity, while questioning the singer's own existence with the line "А я, кто я?" (And who am I?). The mention of the color of rain - "Цвет ливня" - adds to the imagery of a somber atmosphere or emotional state. The final line, "Верни мне, что украл" (Return to me what you stole), suggests a yearning to regain what has been lost and restore a sense of completeness.

Overall, "Vortex" by Søika explores themes of disorientation, longing, and self-discovery. The dream-like imagery and introspective lyrics create an emotional and introspective atmosphere.
