Fade Out
Still Corners Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like a dream retrieved
The night, switching through trees
I rinsed after the rain
Like a dream retrieved
The night, switching through trees
Switching through trees
The night, switching through trees
Have you ever seen the day
It′s alright, it's alright, it′s alright
I rinsed after the rain
Like a dream retrieved
The night, switching through trees
The lyrics to Still Corners' song Fade Out appear to be somewhat enigmatic and abstract, with a dreamlike quality that defies easy interpretation. However, upon closer inspection, it seems that the songwriter is describing a moment of clarity or catharsis following a period of emotional turbulence. The imagery of rinsing after the rain could symbolize a type of spiritual cleansing, as though the singer is purging herself of negative emotions in order to move on. The phrase "like a dream retrieved" suggests that this process is not entirely conscious or logical, but rather something that is felt instinctually.
The second half of the verse introduces a new image: "The night, switching through trees." Here, the night could be seen as a metaphor for the darkness that the singer has emerged from, while the trees represent obstacles or challenges. As the night switches through the trees, it's as though the singer is navigating a difficult path but has faith that she will find her way out. The repetition of this image at the end of the verse reinforces the sense of forward motion and progression, as though the singer is moving steadily towards something new and unknown.
Overall, the lyrics to Fade Out convey a sense of hope in the face of adversity, as though the singer has weathered a storm but is now emerging stronger and wiser. The dreamlike quality of the imagery lends the song a mystical, otherworldly quality, making it feel like a spiritual meditation or a prayer.
