SX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Did you note the fire
Did you note the fire that we made
Did you note the mighty bloom
We've sinned to watch it grow
Did you note the fire
And everything that grew where we came
When we walked home
We got down the wire
We got down the wire in retrograde
Did you note the borderline
The swoon that made us grow
We got down and higher
We got down and higher
We were made
We are swayed
We are played
We are retrograde
Mercury
Mercury
We are swayed
We are played
We are retrograde
Mercury
Mercury
Like never before
We travelled the core
Hey, we grew and we hide
To set out the bloom into a light
Like never before
We travelled the core
Hey, we grew and we hide
To set out the gloom into a light
We are swayed
We are played
We are retrograde
Mercury
Mercury
We are swayed
We are played
We are retrograde

The lyrics of SX's song Mercury reflect on a sense of adventure and exploration through a journey of growth and learning. The title itself refers to the planet Mercury, known for its quick movement and influence on communication and travel, which parallels the experiences described in the song. The first verse suggests a sense of power and passion, likening the journey to a fire that is noticed and felt by those who witness it. The line "we've sinned to watch it grow" implies a sense of guilty pleasure in the experience, perhaps indicating that the journey may not have been entirely smooth or without consequence.
In the second verse, the lyrics shift from the thrill of the journey itself to the impact it has had on the singers. The use of the term "retrograde" indicates a backwards or reversed movement, which evokes a sense of reflection and processing. The "swoon" referred to suggests a moment of overwhelming emotion, possibly indicating an intimate connection between those involved in the journey. The repetition of the phrase "we got down and higher" reinforces the idea of a physical and emotional high in the experience.
The chorus of the song reiterates the themes of movement and influence, suggesting that the singers have been "swayed" and "played" by their experiences. The repetition of the word "Mercury" emphasizes the connection to the planet, as well as the idea of communication and expression.
Overall, the lyrics of Mercury suggest a sense of adventure and growth through experience, emphasizing the impact that these journeys can have on individuals and relationships.
