The Jim Yoshii Pile-Up Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As we go spinning 'round and 'round
Won't, won't you wait awhile
Before you come in
Don't say no more
I can't listen when you're underground
Whoa, tell me something
Just the reasons
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Come on the deep end
Play for keeps and
It ain't exactly what you wanted, darling, stick around
Whoa, now you're leaving
Yes and please then
But don't you ever wonder why it is that I got out
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Keep moving along
What's lost is never found
So we go spinning 'round and 'round
Things better left unsaid
Confront you as the night creeps in
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Run, run away my love
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Keep moving along
Keep moving along
Keep moving along
In "A Deep Deep Lake" by The Jim Yoshii Pile-Up, the lyrics explore themes of loss, communication breakdown, and the struggle to find meaning in a relationship. The opening line, "What's lost is never found," suggests a sense of hopelessness and the inability to retrieve what has been lost. The repetition of going "spinning 'round and 'round" symbolizes the cyclical nature of the relationship, where the same patterns and problems keep repeating.
The singer pleads for their partner to wait a while before coming in and to not say anything more, indicating a desire for a break from the constant communication and the weight it carries. The line "I can't listen when you're underground" hints at the partner's tendency to shut down or withdraw, making it difficult for the singer to truly understand or connect with them.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses a desire for their love to run away, emphasizing the wrongness of the partner's words and their detrimental effect on the singer's soul. The repeated plea to "run away" reflects a yearning for escape and a recognition that the current situation is damaging.
The chorus's repetition of "run, run away my love" underscores the desperation and urgency in the singer's plea. The inclusion of the line "What's lost is never found / So we go spinning 'round and 'round" reinforces the idea that the relationship is stuck in a cycle of unresolved issues and misunderstandings. The closing lines, "Things better left unsaid / Confront you as the night creeps in," suggest that the unspoken truths and underlying tensions become more apparent and confrontational as darkness falls, indicating a growing sense of frustration and disillusionment.
Overall, the lyrics of "A Deep Deep Lake" convey a sense of longing for escape and an acknowledgment that the relationship has reached a breaking point. The repeated insistence to "run away" reflects a desire to break free from the cycle of miscommunication and to find a sense of peace and clarity.

What's lost is never found
Once something is lost, it can never be recovered
As we go spinning 'round and 'round
As we continue on in circles without making progress
Won't, won't you wait awhile
Please be patient and wait for some time
Before you come in
Before you join or become involved
Don't say no more
Stop talking or providing further information
I can't listen when you're underground
I cannot hear or understand you when you're being secretive or distant
Whoa, tell me something
Oh, please share some information with me
Just the reasons
Only provide the explanations or justifications
'Cause I've been around you for too long for silence now
Because I have been in your presence for an extended period and silence is no longer acceptable
Run, run away my love
Escape, leave quickly, my beloved
Don't you see a-what you're sayin' is all so wrong
Can't you realize that what you're expressing or communicating is completely incorrect
Words that walk away with my soul and keep moving along
Words that deeply affect me and continue to have an impact
Come on the deep end
Take a risk and fully immerse yourself in something
Play for keeps
Engage in a situation with serious consequences
And it ain't exactly what you wanted, darling, stick around
And it's not exactly what you desired, my dear, but stay anyway
Whoa, now you're leaving
Oh, now you're departing or abandoning
Yes and please then
Okay, if you insist
But don't you ever wonder why it is that I got out
But don't you ever question why I chose to leave
Things better left unsaid
Matters that are best not mentioned or discussed
Confront you as the night creeps in
Confront you as darkness gradually approaches or envelops us
Keep moving along
Continue progressing forward
