Taxi
STARCARDIGAN Lyrics

In STARCARDIGAN's song "Taxi," the lyrics express a sense of surrender and letting go, with the singer saying "make me who you want me to be" and "I give my totem to the defenseless." The singer admits they are tired of resisting and suggests that naming things serves no purpose. The lyrics are evocative and abstract, using imagery to convey emotions.

The second verse of the song features a series of vivid images that evoke a sense of confusion and disorientation. The singer talks about melting like sugar with someone, and experiencing sunlight, rain, and distant headlights. The lines "it clashed in the forehead, clouded milk - smoke" offer a striking contrast between the gentle image of milk and the harshness of smoke. The singer hints that they feel lost or disoriented ("I lost my way"), but also suggests that they will be strong.

The song ends with the singer asking their favorite sister to tell someone that it's time to go, and that a taxi is waiting for them at the southern shore. The lyrics of "Taxi" seem to suggest a surrender to the unknown, with the singer open to being someone else and letting go of resistance.
