Gemini
Saskwatch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sing me your lullaby
Put your head on my pillow
Tempermental gemini
Out of body, inner mind
Threw it all out the window
Reeling from the impact
Terrified of everyone
Hope until there is none
Vision of beauty, goddess of light
Caught in your gravity tonight
I'm changing the channel, you're reading my mind
Oh...
Prehistoric alibi
Primitive in my desire
Do it all at you say so
Circling like wild fire
Celsius or fahrenheit
Hang me up like a miro
Waiting for the flashback
Reeling from the impact
Terrified of everyone
Hope until there is none
Vision of beauty, goddess of light
Caught in your gravity tonight
I'm changing the channel, you're reading my mind
Help me surrender from the fight
Help me surrender...
The opening lines "Turn back the hands of time, Sing me your lullaby, Put your head on my pillow" sets the tone of the song as a plea for comfort and safety. The singer is seeking sanctuary from their restless mind and the harsh realities of their life. The reference to "hands of time" suggests that the singer wishes to escape from their present reality and return to an earlier, simpler time. They desire to be cradled and soothed, as demonstrated by the request for a lullaby and pillow.
The next lines introduce the idea that the singer's source of discomfort is their own divided nature: "Temperamental gemini, Out of body, inner mind, Threw it all out the window." This could be a reference to astrological sign Gemini, which is associated with duality and changeable temperament. The singer may feel like they are divided between their inner and outer selves, leading to erratic behavior and difficulty relating to others. The line "Threw it all out the window" suggests that they have given up trying to control their impulses and simply let themselves behave however they want.
The chorus, "Vision of beauty, goddess of light, Caught in your gravity tonight, I'm changing the channel, you're reading my mind, Help me surrender from the fight," portrays the singer's fascination and vulnerability to someone who they perceive as beautiful and powerful. They are drawn to this person as if by gravity, and feel that they can read their thoughts. However, they also feel trapped and in conflict with them, as they are "changing the channel" or trying to resist their influence. The final line, "Help me surrender from the fight," suggests that the singer wants to let go of their struggles and submit to this person's power.

Gemini can refer to someone with two completely different, parallel minds. Such a great song for so many reasons.
