WATERMEDOWN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Self-reflection in a dim-lit room
After picturing you in monroe park
Planted publicly alone by the landmark
On the path back home
Far from burdened by the cold
A scene that seemed to
Never leave my mind
But now it's getting old
And i've signified that
Place in my life as the past
I am not who I was and
I wish you could forgive me for that
Refurnished with roaches
And a recall overdue
I trashed those postcards
I meant to send to you
Because I knew they'd just blend
With the clutter of your bedroom floor
Swore you're the reason we don't talk
Like we used to anymore
But I felt the quake, I saw the thief
In my conscious sleep-paralyzed dreams and
I wanted to tell you everything
How I'd been playing make-believe
But I was silent, self-conscious
I bet I'd never have the nerve regardless
But you got it all along (But you got it)
And I never knew any better
Until I got gone
And I never knew any better
Until I got
gone (Until I got gone)
In the first verse of the song "Blend," WATERMEDOWN reflects on his journey to self-realization. He explains that he entered into a new dimension through self-reflection in a dim-lit room. While in this room, he pictured someone in Monroe Park and was alone near a landmark. The scene never left his mind, but now it's getting old. He's signified this place in his life as his past, and he's not the same person he once was. However, he wishes that the person in the scene could forgive him for how he's changed. The second verse of the song is about WATERMEDOWN's desire to reconnect with someone he's lost touch with. He's hesitant to reach out and show vulnerability, so he doesn't send postcards he had intended to send. He thinks that these postcards will blend in with the clutter in the person's bedroom, and he's unsure if the person even wants to talk to him anymore. He recalls a time when he felt a powerful emotion but was unable to express it. He saw a thief in his dreams, but he was too self-conscious to say anything. Despite this, the person he wants to reconnect with likely knew all along what he was feeling.
Line by Line Meaning
Entered the new dimension through
I began a new phase of self-awareness
Self-reflection in a dim-lit room
I reflected on my thoughts and actions in a quiet and introspective space
After picturing you in monroe park
When I thought of you in a specific place, it triggered deep memories and feelings
Planted publicly alone by the landmark
I was isolated in a familiar place, feeling vulnerable and exposed
On the path back home
I was on a physical and emotional journey towards closure and acceptance
Far from burdened by the cold
Even in the midst of a difficult time, I found hope and warmth
A scene that seemed to
A vivid memory that felt like it would never fade away
Never leave my mind
A memory that felt stuck in my consciousness
But now it's getting old
As time passed, the memory lost its grip on me
And i've signified that
I've come to terms with the fact that
Place in my life as the past
This memory is now a part of my history
I am not who I was and
I've grown and changed as a person
I wish you could forgive me for that
I hope you can accept and understand the person I've become
Refurnished with roaches
My environment is now filled with unpleasant and unwanted things
And a recall overdue
I've been meaning to remember something important, but it's been hard to do so
I trashed those postcards
I got rid of something that was meant to be sentimental
I meant to send to you
I planned on giving you something meaningful
Because I knew they'd just blend
I knew that the postcards would get lost among the other clutter
With the clutter of your bedroom floor
I imagined you living in a disorganized space
Swore you're the reason we don't talk
I blame you for the breakdown of our communication
Like we used to anymore
Our relationship has changed, and we're not as close as we once were
But I felt the quake, I saw the thief
I became aware of something that shook me to my core and felt like it was stealing from me
In my conscious sleep-paralyzed dreams and
In my vulnerable and helpless state, this issue still affects me
I wanted to tell you everything
I wanted to reveal my innermost thoughts and feelings to you
How I'd been playing make-believe
I was pretending to be someone I wasn't
But I was silent, self-conscious
I didn't speak up because I was afraid of being judged
I bet I'd never have the nerve regardless
I don't think I could have ever gathered the courage to tell you
But you got it all along (But you got it)
You already knew what was going on, even if I didn't say anything
And I never knew any better
I wasn't aware of the truth at the time
Until I got gone
I didn't realize the full extent of the situation until later
And I never knew any better
I wish I had been more conscious and understanding sooner
