Carrier Signal
Soul Extract Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Want to say, thank you and good luck"
"Good luck"
Dropped in a world, an endless maze, trying to parse and modulate
Displaced (it's all moving closer, but farther away)
Impossible to navigate, faded colors in a haze
Saturate (the darkness within is starting to awake)
It's paralyzing you,
I'm losing control, can't take the pressure anymore
Gravity taking hold deep inside these cryogenic eyes
Emerging from the light into chaotic silence
This consciousness descending to the surface
A familiar conscience state that repeats and replicates
Overwriting shadowing echoes of what remains
Adjust and calibrate when the memories start to fade
Into a carrier signal, origin unknown
It's paralyzing you,
I'm losing control, can't take the pressure anymore
Gravity taking hold deep inside these cryogenic eyes
Emerging from the light into chaotic silence
This consciousness descending to the surface
I'm not breaking from all that's been taken
With a mind now vacant and the light is fading
Can I separate reality from what I taste?
From the conflict in my veins? Why do I hesitate?
I'm not breaking from all that's been taken
With a mind now vacant and the light is fading
Can I separate reality from what I taste?
From the conflict in my veins? Why do I hesitate?
Descending to the surface
The lyrics of Soul Extract's song "Carrier Signal" are introspective and thought-provoking. The opening lines of the song, "Roger, I debt my life and I only, want to say, thank you and good luck. Good luck," suggest a solemn goodbye, as if the singer is contemplating the end of their life. The theme of uncertainty and confusion is echoed in later lines, "Dropped in a world, an endless maze, trying to parse and modulate. Displaced (it's all moving closer, but farther away). Impossible to navigate, faded colors in a haze. Saturate (the darkness within is starting to awake)."
The verses describe a sense of paralysis, loss of control, and the struggle to separate reality from illusion. The lines, "Adjust and calibrate when the memories start to fade into a carrier signal, origin unknown" suggest a breakdown of communication, as if the singer is struggling to make sense of the world around them. The chorus of the song reinforces this feeling of disorientation, "Emerging from the light into chaotic silence. This consciousness descending to the surface."
The song's lyrics suggest the possibility of a transformation or awakening, but one that is fraught with uncertainty and confusion. The question, "Why do I hesitate?" is repeated throughout the song, suggesting that the singer is unsure of their next move. The final lines of the song, "Descending to the surface," lend a sense of finality and closure, suggesting that the singer has come to a decision, even if it is not clear what that decision is.

Dropped in a world, an endless maze
Trying to parse and modulate
Displaced
It's all moving closer, but farther away
Impossible to navigate
Faded colors in a haze
Saturate
The darkness within is starting to awake
It's paralyzing you
I'm losing control
Can't take the pressure anymore
Gravity taking hold
Deep inside these cryogenic eyes
Emerging from the light into chaotic silence
Consciousness
Descending to the surface
A familiar conscience state
That repeats and replicates
Overwriting shadowing echoes
Of what remains
Adjust and Calibrate
When the memories start to fade
Into a carrier signal
Origin unknown
It's paralyzing you
I'm losing control
Can't take the pressure anymore
Gravity taking hold
Deep inside these cryogenic eyes
Emerging from the light into chaotic silence
Consciousness
Descending to the surface
I'm not breaking
From all that's been taken
With a mind now vacant
And the light is fading
Can I separate
Reality from what I taste
From the conflict in my veins
Why do I hesitate
I'm not breaking
From all that's been taken
With a mind now vacant
And the light is fading
Can I separate
Reality from what I taste
From the conflict in my veins
Why do I hesitate
