Schiller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Living on decay
The seven words left on paper
Will disconnect the day
And you want
And you want
And you want
And it's all around us
As ghosted machines
Would the real be just silent
If there's a hole in the key?
At the bar in the basement
For an hourglass of tea
Our love is a violent
Constant space in between
And the taste has got a texture
Smoke has not a sound
The fabric that was fixed here
Inherent in the ground
And it's all around us
As ghosted machines
Would the real be just silent
If there's a hole in the key?
At the bar in the basement
For an hourglass of tea
Our love is a violent
Constant space in between
And as much as I'd like to
Believe there's a truth
About our illusion, well
I've come to conclude
There's just nothing beyond it
The mind can perceive
Except for the pictures in
The space in between
The space in between
Schiller's song "In Between" is a meditation on the enigmatic nature of reality and love. The opening lines of the song, "Can't figure out how we got here/Living on decay," set a melancholic tone, suggesting a sense of disillusionment with the world. The singer then describes "the seven words left on paper," which will "disconnect the day," further emphasizing a feeling of detachment from reality.
The chorus, with its repeated phrase "And you want anything that's clear," seems to capture the frustration and longing for clarity that the singer is experiencing. The world around them is "ghosted machines," and the line "If there's a hole in the key?" suggests that perhaps there is something missing, some essential element of reality that is not quite within reach.
The song also touches on the theme of love, describing it as a "violent constant space in between." The singer describes the texture of taste and the soundlessness of smoke, emphasizing the way that reality can be both tangible and elusive. The final verse speaks to the limits of knowledge and perception, with the singer acknowledging that there may be nothing beyond the pictures we create in our minds - a haunting and beautiful notion.
Line by Line Meaning
Can't figure out how we got here
I am unable to understand how we reached this point.
Living on decay
Our existence is sustained through the power of decay.
The seven words left on paper
There are only seven words remaining on this piece of paper.
Will disconnect the day
Those seven words will put an end to the day.
And you want
You desire something.
And you want
You still desire something.
And you want
Your desire is insatiable.
Anything thats clear
You desire something that's unambiguous.
And it's all around us
It's evident everywhere.
As ghosted machines
Like invisible machines.
Would the real be just silent
Would reality only be quiet?
If there's a hole in the key?
If the key is flawed?
At the bar in the basement
In the basement bar.
For an hourglass of tea
To drink tea from an hourglass-shaped glass.
Our love is violent
Our love is wild and aggressive.
Constant space in between
A perpetual gap that divides.
And the taste has got a texture
The flavor has a tangible quality to it.
Smoke has not a sound
Smoke emits no sound.
The fabric that was fixed here
This cloth that was once stable.
Inherent in the ground
Rooted in the soil.
And as much as I'd like to
Although I prefer to believe it.
Believe there's a truth
That there's an absolute reality.
About our illusion, well
Regarding our delusion.
I've come to conclude
I've determined.
There's just nothing beyond it
There's no further meaning or significance.
The mind can perceive
Only what the mind can comprehend.
Except for the pictures in
Aside from the imagery within.
The space in between
That blank void that separates us.

Those lyrics are for the original song " the space in between "
Can't figure out how we got here
Living on decay.
The seven words left on paper
Will disconnect the day
And you want a new want
And you want anything that's clear
And it's all around us as ghosted machines.
Would the real be just silent
If there's a hole in the key?
At the bar in the basement
For an hour-glass of tea.
Our love is a violent
Constant space in between
And the taste has got a texture
Smoke has not a sound.
The fabric that was fixed here
Inherent in the ground.
And it's all around us as ghosted machines
Would the real be just silent
If there's a hole in the key?
At the bar in the basement
For an hour-glass of tea
Our love is a violent
Space in between
And as much as I'd like to
Believe there's a truth
About our illusion, well I've come to conclude
There's just nothing beyond it
The mind can perceive
Except for the pictures in
The space in between
The space in between

Can we please all appreciate the fact that even the repeating metal-like sound at 1:04 is synchronised with the dancer touching the metal-door?
