Sea
Vampillia Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I breathe in the darkness
I breathe in the fear
I breathe in the hopelessness
I breathe in despair

I breathe in the darkness
I breathe in the loneliness
I breathe in the jealousy

I breathe in the rage
I breathe in hate (x2)

I feel the arrow in my heart (x2)

I breathe in the darkness
I breathe in the fear
I breathe in the hopelessness
I breathe in despair
I breathe in the loneliness
I breathe in the rage
I breathe in the jealousy
I breathe in hate

I feel the arrow in my heart
I feel the arrow...
I feel the arrow in my heart

I breathe in the darkness
To breathe out light
To breathe out fire

Center to everyone
Breathe out... peace

This suggests a desire to transmute the negative emotions into something positive and powerful. The final exhortation to "breathe out...peace" reinforces this idea of transformation, encouraging the listener to release their negative emotions and embrace more positive sentiments.

Overall, the lyrics to "Sea" are a powerful reminder of the emotional depth and complexity of the human experience. The song speaks to the universality of negative emotions, while also suggesting that it is possible to transform these feelings into something more positive.
