The Dø Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The Dø's song "Miracles" speaks about nostalgia and reminiscing about the past. The repetition of the question "Do you really wanna go back in time?" highlights the idea of nostalgia being a double-edged sword; it's comfortable to remain in the past, but it can also cause an inability to move forward. The singer explains how they still have pictures on their wall, know where they came from, and find answers in nature, indicating a strong attachment to the past.
The second verse expresses that the singer cares about the wellbeing of someone from the past, wonders how they achieved success despite difficult times, and loves the unconventional bond between them. The chorus repeats once again, emphasizing the longing for the past. The final lines suggest the possibility of a utopian future, as they ask about "hauling a bong full of miracles" and "building a house on the moon." These lines are symbolic of an ideal world, a place that is different from the present reality.
Overall, the song "Miracles" explores the idea of holding onto the past, as well as the possibility of a brighter future. The singer acknowledges the strong connection to their past, but also suggests that there may be more to life than what has already happened.
