Waking Up
Soul Extract Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sanitizing
Feelings and traveling your way
Sanitizing promises you make
Pulled into this orbit
Unconsciousness awake
In this blackness
That's surrounding me again
And its calling out your name
Burning to the ground what remains
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Drowning fallacy
The shadows of yesterday
Waking Up
Waking from all that I believe
Detach from this reality
Leaving behind the relativity I forged inside
Memories they endlessly repeat
It cycles with atomic frequency
Bending the fabric of space time
The gravity will push through
Screaming out with all that's inside
Inside of you
And its calling out your name
Burning to the ground what remains
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Drowning fallacy
The shadows of yesterday
Waking Up
Waking from all that I believe
Detach from this reality
Leaving behind the relativity I forged inside
The shadows of yesterday
Drowning fallacy
Waking from all that I believe
Detach from this reality
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Drowning fallacy
The shadows of yesterday
Waking Up
Waking from all that I believe
Detach from this reality
Leaving behind the relativity I forged inside
Forged inside
The shadows of yesterday
Waking from all that I believe
Detach from this reality
Leaving behind the relativity I forged inside
The song "Waking Up" by Soul Extract is a powerful track that explores the idea of waking up from a reality that was once believed to be true. The lyrics convey a sense of detachment from the past, from old memories that keep repeating themselves and are no longer relevant. The song's opening lyrics "Feelings gone, sanitizing, feelings and traveling your way, sanitizing promises you make" portray a sense of removal or sanitization, suggesting the singer's attempt to erase certain emotions or memories.
The chorus of the song, "Like a tidal wave, crashing over me, drowning fallacy, the shadows of yesterday, waking up," suggests a sudden realization of the past's hold on them. The tidal wave, symbolic of the force of memory, is crashing over them, drowning the false beliefs or fallacies that they have held onto. The singer is now aware of what was once subconscious, realizing that they need to detach themselves from the past and forge a new reality for themselves.
The repeated line "Detach from this reality, leaving behind the relativity I forged inside" reinforces the theme of detachment and the idea that the singer wants to leave their past behind and create their reality.
Overall, the lyrics of "Waking Up" convey a powerful message of self-realization, detachment from the past, and the creation of a new reality. The tidal wave motif serves as a symbol of the force of memories that we have to confront to move forward in life.

It cycles with atomic frequency
Repeating itself very fast
Bending the fabric of space time
Changing the way time is perceived
The gravity will push through
The force of the past is too strong
Screaming out with all that's inside
Expressing everything that's inside me
Inside of you
Trying to get through to you
The shadows of yesterday
The memories of the past
Drowning fallacy
Getting rid of false beliefs

Damn words can't describe how much this song sings to my heart

"Waking from all that I believe"...I felt that in my soul. As I became an adult and began my unending persuit of higher knowledge, I remember the moment I realized the lies we're made to believe about the world around us and beyond. "Waking Up" is the best way to say it. As if being snapped suddenly awake from the most real dream you ever had.

As always - awesome song!!!
