Depth of Field
Sea Pinks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I can dive back
Where time always seem to go
Time fading black from yellow
I should go back find my own
Way home but I don't know
Where I am going any more
Take a field in eternity from
The overload the stative is not
Learning but when it goes
But I don't know If I go alone
Now and I don't know the way
To go and I don't know if I'm
Deserving of being born well
I'm so alone so
Depth of eternity from the
Overload the stative is not
Learning but I don't know
And I don't know if I know
How and I don't know the
Way to go and I don't know
If I deserve it of being born
Along this road so oh oh
Time fades back gone to
Send a close but I don't




Know where II am
Going any more

Overall Meaning

In Sea Pinks' song "Depth of Field," the singer expresses a sense of confusion and disorientation regarding their path in life. They reflect on the notion of time and its fleeting nature, reminiscing about a time where they felt more sure about their trajectory. The line, "If I can dive back where time always seems to go," suggests a longing to return to a past where they felt more grounded. However, the singer acknowledges that this may not be possible, as they admit, "I don't know where I'm going any more."


The lyrics continue to explore this feeling of uncertainty, using the image of a "field in eternity" and the concept of "the overload" to convey a sense of overwhelm and confusion. While they don't know if they're capable or deserving of finding their way again, the singer seems determined to continue on, even if it means feeling alone along the way. The phrase "depth of eternity" suggests a feeling of being lost in time and space, but also hints at the potential for a deeper level of understanding or meaning to be discovered.


Line by Line Meaning

If I can dive back
If I could go back in time


Where time always seem to go
To a place where time seems to pass quickly


Time fading black from yellow
Time changing from bright to dark


I should go back find my own
I should go back and find my own way


Way home but I don't know
But I'm lost and don't know how to get back


Where I am going any more
I don't have direction or purpose anymore


Take a field in eternity from
Trying to escape the overwhelming and infinite


The overload the stative is not
But without any sense of progress or growth


Learning but when it goes
Trying to learn something beyond comprehension


But I don't know If I go alone
But I don't know if I can do it by myself


Now and I don't know the way
I'm lost and don't know which way to turn


To go and I don't know if I'm
I don't know if I am capable of doing it


Deserving of being born well
Feeling like I don't deserve a good life


I'm so alone so
Feeling lonely in this journey


Depth of eternity from the
Being lost in the abyss of time


Overload the stative is not
Being overwhelmed without any progress


Learning but I don't know
Trying to learn but not understanding


And I don't know if I know
And I don't know if I actually understand


How and I don't know the
I don't know how to do it and where to go


Way to go and I don't know
And I don't know which way to turn


If I deserve it of being born
I don't know if I deserve a good life


Along this road so oh oh
In this difficult journey


Time fades back gone to
Time is slipping away


Send a close but I don't
Trying to find a way to move forward


Know where II am
But I don't know where I am


Going any more
And I'm lost and have no direction
