Revelation
Tristan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Somebody call the doctor up
I'm feeling something washing over me
My mind has drawn a blank again
The more I try the less I can explain

Do you ever wonder about the sky
When you look out of your window at night?
How many moons ago did you realise
That we're only drifting further each time.

Feelings from another time as you step into the wild
Dealing with another kind of revelation




Reeling from heavy sight, buried in the sky
Dealing with another kind of revelation

Overall Meaning

In Tristan's song "Revelation," the lyrics explore a sense of confusion and introspection. The opening line, "Somebody call the doctor up, I'm feeling something washing over me," suggests a feeling of overwhelm and the need for external help to make sense of one's state of mind. The next line, "My mind has drawn a blank again, the more I try the less I can explain," reflects the struggle to articulate or understand the emotions and thoughts that are occupying the singer's mind. It hints at a frustration with the limitations of language and the ineffability of certain experiences.


The following lines shift the focus to contemplating the mysteries of the universe. "Do you ever wonder about the sky, when you look out of your window at night?" invites listeners to consider the vastness and wonder of the cosmos. The question about realizing how distant we have become from each other and the world suggests a sense of alienation and disconnection from the natural world and perhaps from others as well.


The chorus lyrics, "Feelings from another time as you step into the wild, dealing with another kind of revelation, reeling from heavy sight, buried in the sky, dealing with another kind of revelation," convey a sense of encountering something profound and transformative. It speaks of experiencing intense emotions or sights that are beyond ordinary comprehension or understanding. It also suggests that these revelations might come from immersing oneself in nature and allowing its power to affect and change us.


Overall, "Revelation" explores themes of introspection, the struggle to articulate profound experiences, a yearning for connection in a disconnected world, and the transformative power of encountering the mysteries of the universe.

chris dankis

Amethystium song ETHEREAL

FoX_Zilla_xD

The Racer is also awesome ♥

Sean

As someone else stated below, this is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard as well. I’m a huge hip hop head and have branched out to classical + ambient music, and this is right up there with one of my favorite (non hip-hop) compositions. What a treat!

Andrew Lamb

I think that at the time of having left this comment, I must've listened to this song many hundreds of times. There is something about this song that just changes how my mind operates. It is a very positive thing. It touches something deep within my mind that I have a difficult time articulating. Know that I truly appreciate this work of art!

Ricardo Sousa

Amazing song, would fit perfectly in a movie/tv show score. (reminds me Interstellar/Blade Runner among others). Congratulations and thank you for sharing.

Jay Cee

Reminds me of Hans Zimmer's masterpiece Interstellar soundtrack. Excellent work!

Sean

Yes. I was thinking the same thing! I freaking love that movie and the score that Zimmer did for it. It’s my favorite movie all time.

Maganor

I was actually thinking of The Last Samurai! What a Masterpiece

Tom P.

For me, this is a masterpiece of
- Last samurai or last of the mohicans
- interstellar (docking scene)
>>> Beautifull.

This kind of music brings you to thinking about what the song wants to tell you and the sense of your life!!!

Many thanks, Tristan
