Seahaven Lyrics

"Goodnight son." was all he said, it was routine and simple.
His father bid him goodnight with a simple phrase that he played over in his mind until he was completely weakened.

Mourning came with the morning rain, hit the rooftop with the stern disdain.
The morning brought rain that matched his mood, and it hit the roof with force and disgust.

Brought so much pain, no sun shiny day, dawn did not bring her beginning.
The day started off dark and gloomy, without any hope of her arrival.

Eternal black fits a tragedy.
The tragedy was all-encompassing and filled with everlasting darkness.

Too dark for adjusted eyes to see.
The darkness was so profound that even once his eyes adjusted, he still could not see clearly.

All they had to do was speak my name, to calm the lion, make him tame.
His loved ones had the power to soothe his inner turmoil with a simple call to his name.

Were you as wild as they say. It′s what they say.
He questions the rumors about himself and whether he was truly as uncontrollable as people claimed.

But I don't really know what to believe, because if I really was so crippling,
He's struggling to reconcile his perception of himself with the version that others have of him.

Did you have the heart to complete the cliche?
He questions whether the person he's addressing had the courage to fully embrace the stereotypical narrative surrounding their relationship.

Did you follow me into the evergreen? Was it you sounding from the trees?
He wonders whether the person he's addressing was with him in a serene environment, calling out to him from the foliage.

Or was it just the breeze manipulating leaves, solidifying wishful thinking?
He questions whether it was just a breezy day, and his desired outcome caused him to perceive the rustling of the leaves as something more.

But I know you were there when I was deathly scared of how close I really got to leaping.
He knows that this person was there for him during a time of high distress when he felt like he was teetering on the brink of self-destructive behavior.

You put your hand on me, said "Life is just a dream,
The person put their hand on him and offered words of comfort and perspective, that life was just a fleeting dream.

And if you love me, you will sleep.
The person urged him to find peace and tranquility in slumber in order to show their affection.

I know I′ve hurt you so baldly.
The person acknowledges that they have caused him great pain.

Their love makes up for a lot that has been lost.
He feels that the love they share is worth the sacrifices and hardships they've endured.

So I guess it's not as aphotic as I thought.
He realizes that his perception of their relationship was much darker and dismal than it actually is.

I've meet you in Costa Rica.
He recalls a meeting with this person in Costa Rica.

Open my eyes, Pura Vida.
The person urged him to open his eyes and appreciate the beauty of life, as reflected in the pura vida lifestyle of Costa Rica.

They say you did but everybody makes mistakes.
He references the rumors about the other person completing the cliche and acknowledges that everyone makes mistakes.

I understand but this one′s slowly killing me.
He understands that mistakes happen, but this one is causing him long-term damage and emotional pain.

But it can′t help to consume myself directing blame.
He recognizes that blaming himself will not change what has happened and will only cause more harm.

So I am taking what's been done, washing it clean.
He's taking stock of what has happened and trying to cleanse himself of it in order to move forward.

Excusing my entire life on a bad dream.
He's forgiving himself and the other person for what happened, and recognizing that it is just one part of his life story.

I′ve never been one to forgive,
He's not accustomed to forgiveness.

Therefore I'm not one to forget.
He has a hard time forgetting past transgressions and hurts.

But this leaves me indifferent.
However, in this case, he feels emotionally detached.

Because I′ve leaved a lot about mistake,
He's learned a lot from this mistake.

And reason behind decisions made.
He's come to understand the rationale behind certain decisions.

And waiting until too late, wasting time in vain.
He acknowledges that waiting too long has sometimes caused him to lose out and waste his time.

This hour was for you.
He's dedicated this hour to thinking about the other person.

Now it's over and through.
That hour has now passed.

There is nothing left,
There's nothing else to say or do.

But the universe around my neck.
All that remains is the weight of the universe on his shoulders, representing the profound implications of this relationship on his life.
