The use and the balance of contradictions are an important trademark of Seabound. The songs range from cold, synthetic, sometimes harsh sounds to catchy, sometimes fragile melodies, merging day and night.
The lyrics deal with obsession, devotion, doubts, anger and fear. Yet there is always an underlying craving for fulfillment in the songs, a quest for love. Seabound combine vulnerability with anger, fantasies of power with fear. An ubiquitous theme of their songs is the challenge of confronting your deepest and most personal desires.
Their music is personal and honest, but blended with a lot of fantasy. They offer very personal insights into the psyche and they would like to take you on a strange emotional journey.
They also sing about the sea and boat-related things.

Seabound Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You cannot stay
We have just removed an A-Port
From your brain
All these years
A string of lies
A perfect blue print
You are no scientist
You're not an amorist
Those lifelines don't exist
Welcome to square zero
You're no protagonist
You are no gentleman
(Don't) Recite your name again
Welcome to square zero
Get up, get up
It's time to go
You will soon feel somewhat better
Take it slow
Don't be embarrassed
That's O.K.
And for the record
It's a beautiful day
You are no scientist
You're not an amorist
Those lifelines don't exist
Welcome to square zero
You're no protagonist
You are no gentleman
(Don't) Recite that name again
Welcome to square zero
The lyrics to Seabound's song "Transformer" are evocative and provocative, immediately drawing the listener in with the opening lines: "Wake up, wake up / You cannot stay / We have just removed an A-Port / From your brain." The singer is speaking to someone who has been living a lie, a "string of lies" that has been implanted in their mind, leading them to believe that they are something they are not. The removal of the A-Port represents the stripping away of this false identity and a return to reality, or "square zero."
The singer then speaks to the person's true identity, asserting that they are "no scientist" and "not an amorist," challenging them to confront the fact that the lifelines they have been living are not real. This awakening may be jarring, but the singer offers words of comfort and encouragement, telling the person to "take it slow" and assuring them that "it's a beautiful day."
