Wave
Undertheskin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathing is just a waste of air
It's better to die than live in grave
Feel cold wave under the skin
Cold cold wave under the skin
Hate hate hate it's under the skin
Trust no one it's under the skin
Cold cold wave under the skin
Hate hate hate it's under the skin
Trust no one it's under the skin
Feel the coldest wave under the skin
The lyrics in Undertheskin's song "Wave" display a feeling of despair and hopelessness. The opening lines, "Life is just a waste of time, breathing is just a waste of air," suggests that the singer sees no purpose in their existence. Furthermore, the line "It's better to die than live in a grave" implies that they would rather be dead than continue living in their current state of misery.
These feelings of despair are further emphasized by the repeated phrase "cold wave under the skin". The cold wave could refer to a physical sensation but it also connotes a feeling of emptiness and numbness. The lines "Hate hate hate it's under the skin, trust no one it's under the skin" suggests a deep sense of anger and distrust that has seeped into their very being.
Overall, the lyrics of "Wave" evoke a sense of hopelessness and nihilism. It speaks to the internal struggles of feeling trapped in one's own mind and the constant battle to trust and connect with others. The repetition of the phrase "cold wave under the skin" reinforces the idea of feeling trapped in a cycle of despair and numbness.
