Athena
Satin Jackets feat. Anduze Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some days all of the lights turn red
Feels like we ain′t going nowhere
Feels like we ain't going nowhere
Other days we paint this town in red
There′s nowhere else but right here
There's nowhere else but right here

All that I wanted, all that I needed was to meet the one
All that I wanted was your love

Oh to see her
Beautiful in blue and white
Oh Athena you're mine tonight

Some days when the sky′s electric blue
We′re hopelessly romantic
And taking it all for granted
Summer nights when nobody wants to sleep
We're floating on this island
And hiding to find the silence

All that I wanted, all that I needed was to meet the one
All that I wanted was your love
All that I wanted, all that I needed was to feel alive
Alive
I wanted to feel like I was home

Oh to see her
Beautiful in blue and white
Oh Athena you′re mine tonight
Oh to feel her
Baby you're my morning light
Oh Athena we run tonight

Oh to see her
Beautiful in blue and white
Oh Athena you′re mine tonight
Oh to feel her




Baby you're my morning light
Oh Athena we run tonight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Athena," by Satin Jackets feat. Anduze, describe the highs and lows of a romantic relationship. The first verse illustrates feelings of frustration and stagnation, as the singer describes days where everything seems to come to a halt, and they feel like they're not making any progress. However, the second verse presents a beautiful contrast, depicting a time when the couple is hopelessly in love and taking everything around them for granted, including the magic of a summer night. The chorus is a declaration of the singer's desire to find someone to love and feel alive with, and the title "Athena" refers to the object of their affection, who is described as beautiful in blue and white. The song ends with a sense of urgency, as the singer declares that they want to be with Athena tonight and run with her.


The lyrics to "Athena" capture the complex emotional landscape of love and modern relationships, where moments of joy and passion are intermingled with feelings of doubt and frustration. The song seems to express a yearning for something more profound and lasting, beyond the fleeting highs of romance. The repetition of the line "all that I wanted was your love" emphasizes that the singer's desires are simple - to connect with another person and feel alive. The song's dreamy, atmospheric sound underscores the bittersweet tone of the lyrics, evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing.

Sometimes life seems to come to a standstill, everything we want appears out of reach


Feels like we ain′t going nowhere
It feels as if time is stagnant and we are not moving forward in life

It feels as if time is stagnant and we are not moving forward in life


Other days we paint this town in red
On some days we celebrate life and make the most of it


There′s nowhere else but right here
We are content in the present and have no desire to be anywhere else

Summer nights when nobody wants to sleep
During the summer, people enjoy staying up late to enjoy the warm weather and atmosphere


We're floating on this island

And hiding to find the silence
We are trying to find a peaceful moment to ourselves


All that I wanted, all that I needed was to feel alive
All I ever wanted was to feel alive and experience everything life has to offer


Alive
Feeling truly alive, with passion and excitement


I wanted to feel like I was home
I wanted to find a place and person that made me feel like I belonged and was comfortable


Baby you're my morning light
The person I am singing to brings light and joy to my life, making each morning a new beginning


Oh Athena we run tonight
Tonight, we are going to let loose and enjoy ourselves, running free and feeling alive
