Giants
Tia Gostelow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
moonlight, I forget where we were tonight,
we went to the clouds, and then we came back down,
I remember when we were young, we would sneak out and run,
to the parties in the streets, but only stay so we could drink
And I feel It, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it in my bones,
I'm a youthful giant waiting to come back home,
We would hide in the backstreets, feeling high to the sunbeams,
our heads are in the clouds tonight and then we came back down,
I remember when we were young, we would sneak out and run,
to the parties in the streets, but only stay so we could drink,
And I feel It, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it in my bones,
and I feel it, I feel it, I feel its something you should know,
and I feel It, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it in my bones,
and I feel it, I feel it, I feel it's something you should know,
I'm a youthful giant waiting to come back home,
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
I feel, I feel, I feel it in my bones,
Tia Gostelow’s “Giants” is a song that seems to capture the feeling of youth and nostalgia for a simpler time. The song appears to be a reflection of the past and an acknowledgment of the present circumstances, where the singer feels like they are confined by the expectations and limitations of the world around them.
The opening lines set the tone for the song, with “in the street there’s pain and moonlight” suggesting a world that is dark and full of suffering. Despite this, the singer seems to be fixated on the clouds and the freedom that they represent. The reference to “parties in the streets” and the desire to “only stay so we could drink” paints a picture of a wild and carefree youth, which contrasts with the restrictive and oppressive reality of the present.
The repetition of “I feel it in my bones” emphasizes the deep-seated passion and longing the singer feels for a life that feels out of reach. The “youthful giant waiting to come back home” can be interpreted as a reference to the youthful spirit that the singer feels has been lost and is waiting to be reawakened.
Overall, “Giants” is a song that captures the bittersweet feeling of growing older and feeling like the possibilities that once seemed endless are now out of reach. Despite this, there is still a sense of hope and a desire to recapture the wild and carefree spirit of youth.
