Zenith
Wolfgun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

it was cold that day
with a cloudless sky
as i felt your hand
making peace with mine

your image blurred
in a distant view
yeah, your back was turned
but i thought you knew

it was cold that night
while the moon did fly
but the darkness fell
like a fog inside

given up on hope,
as i looked up high
yeah my heart it spoke,
and the stars replied:

even though you're near,
i'm light-years from your dreams




but i feel no fear
it's the loneliness i need!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wolfgun's song Zenith evoke themes of heartbreak, solitude, and the paradoxical comfort of being alone. The singer describes a moment on a cold day where they held hands with someone they cared for deeply, but who they appear to have lost. The person's image becomes blurry and distant, and although they appear to be aware of the singer's presence, they offer no response. Later that same night, the singer looks up at the moon and stars, feeling that their dreams and the dreams of this lost person are so far apart as to be light-years away. The pain of this realization is tempered, however, by the sense that it is the loneliness itself that is sought after and necessary.


Throughout Zenith, the singer portrays the tension between the human desire for connection and the longing for solitude. The moments of physical contact, like the hand-holding and the cold night air, are fleeting and emphasized by the surrounding emptiness. The lyrics also make use of space imagery, suggesting vast distances and the sense of being lost in an infinite void. It's as if the singer has been left adrift, floating somewhere between the need to be with others and the need to retreat from them.


Overall, Zenith is a melancholy but introspective song that captures the complexities of human emotion. It suggests that the things we desire most deeply can also be the things that hurt us the most. In the end, though, the singer seems to find some solace in the recognition that loneliness is a part of life, and that it can be a source of strength as well as pain.
