Thank You
Seahaven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A circle resolves, sorrow follows, a crescent appears.
This was not the arrangement made.
What can you do when mother nature steals the lead?
The strangest part is what's gained from loss,
And to lose what's lost,
And to gain what's not.
But you took me in with open arms,
You woke up in the prime of night.
Neurological poltergeist was the culprit,
Too strong to alight.
Then he spoke to you of me.
Said "shapeshift my love, don't let him go, try to explain."
She will drink and speak of it.
Curse artificial confidence.
But it is drenched with innocence.
Beautiful blinding reflections.
These lyrics are from Seahaven's song 'Thank You'. The opening line, "This is for you, the one that's here", makes it evident that the song is directed towards someone specific, perhaps a loved one or a friend. The next line, "A circle resolves, sorrow follows, a crescent appears", suggests that the person who the song is addressed to has gone through a tough time and is now in a period of transition. The imagery of a circle and a crescent is used to depict cyclical change and the ups and downs of life.
The following line, "This was not the arrangement made", expresses a sense of disappointment or confusion caused by a sudden change in plans. The next few lines, "What can you do when mother nature steals the lead? / The strangest part is what's gained from loss, / And to lose what's lost, / And to gain what's not", explore the theme of acceptance and finding beauty in unexpected circumstances. It suggests that sometimes things don't go as planned, but there is always something to be gained or learned from the experience.
The chorus, "But you took me in with open arms, / Because only time and love move this world along", is a thank you to the person who has been supportive and accepting despite the changes and challenges. The second verse delves into the idea of the supernatural, with references to a "neurological poltergeist" who speaks about the singer to the person the song is addressed to. The line "Curse artificial confidence, / But it is drenched with innocence, / Beautiful blinding reflections" could be interpreted as a commentary on the futility of confidence and the beauty in embracing vulnerability.
Overall, 'Thank You' is a song about navigating change, finding beauty in unexpected circumstances, and the power of love and acceptance.
