Still Life Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just remember that lake
You were playing with that god damn camera
While I just wanted to hold you
Curious the way irony plays
In the end
You burned those pictures
And I can only remember the lake
Oh, white flower of the waves
Not all answers live enough for their questions
They blossom in the back of the mirrors
When girls wear mascara on our wishes

Oh, white flower of the waves
Not all answers live enough for their questions
They blossom in the back of the mirrors
When girls wear mascara on our wishes

One more year again
And you'll go wherever you want
Whenever you want

And all this noise
(Surrounding me)
Confines me away
(Out of time and space)
Like a bowl of rust in my head
Endless echo of what is left
Home feels just like alone
So do you mind
If i stay?

One more minute again
It's been a year
And that's all it seemed

One more year again
Wherever you want
Whenever you want
One more year again
Stuck in this salt pit

And all this noise
(Surrounding me)
Confines me away
(Out of time and space)
Like a bowl of rust in my head
Endless echo of what is left
Home feels just like alone
So do you mind
If i stay?

I just remember that lake
You were playing with that
God damn
Camera
While I just wanted to hold you
Curious the way
Irony plays
In the end
You burned those pictures
And I can only remember the lake
I can only remember the lake

One more minute again




It's been a year and that's all it seemed
One more year again

Overall Meaning

The song [untitled] by Still Life captures the feeling of nostalgia and longing for a lost love. The first verse paints a picture of a memory with an ex-partner at a lake. The singer of the song wanted to hold their partner while they were playing with a camera. However, in the end, the pictures from that day were burned, leaving only the memory of the lake behind. The repetition of the phrase "one more year again" in the chorus suggests that the singer is stuck in a cycle of pain and memories of their lost love, unable to move on.


The second part of the song uses metaphor to explore feelings of regret and missed opportunities. The "white flower of the waves" implies a fleeting or delicate beauty, while "all answers live enough for their questions" suggests that some things are meant to remain unanswered. The "mirrors" and "mascara" represent the distortions and illusions we create in our desire for love and acceptance. The repetition of the chorus further emphasizes the feeling of being stuck in a cycle of pain and longing.


Overall, [untitled] is a poignant reflection on the fleeting nature of love and memory, and the pain of being unable to let go.
