Starfall
The Symposium Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you close to me
Wich causes you to act innapropately
Wait a minute let me think I'll sit down and have a drink
Maybe 1 or maybe 7 maybe 3
And maybe tell you what I really mean
My words aren't what they seem
Although I tend to think that words don't mean a thing
It's the words that I crave so irrationally
Wait a minute let me think I'll sit down and have a drink
Maybe 1 or maybe 7 maybe 3
Let me tell you what I really mean
My words aren't what they seem
Although I tend to think
That words don't mean a thing
Instead I get lonely
When you don't talk to me
It's the words that I crave so irrationally
Wait a minute let me think I'll sit down
and have a drink maybe 1 or maybe 7 maybe 3
In The Symposium's song Starfall, the lyrics explore the complexity of communication in relationships. The singer notes that when the person they are close to gets too close, they become dizzy and act inappropriately. This suggests a feeling of vulnerability and disorientation when in close proximity to someone they have feelings for. The singer then pauses to reflect on their thoughts and emotions, suggesting that alcohol may facilitate this process. However, even with the influence of alcohol, the singer acknowledges that their words may not reflect their true feelings, indicating a struggle to express themselves honestly.
The singer then reveals that they feel lonely when the other person does not talk to them, emphasizing the importance of communication in the relationship. The need for words is described as irrational, suggesting that the singer recognizes the emotional intensity of their desire for connection. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of emotional complexity and difficulty in expressing oneself in a relationship, but also the importance of communication and vulnerability in building a true and meaningful connection.
