Soft Drones
Xul Zolar Lyrics

The lyrics of Xul Zolar's song Soft Drones are open to interpretation, but it seems to be a song about a complicated relationship that has left the singer feeling starving and stripped of their identity. The first verse suggests that the singer feels unknown and unheard by their partner, who may be responsible for their difficulties. The line "strip me off a rocket" could be interpreted as a metaphor for losing the feeling of being in control or soaring through life, and the plea "if you don't leave me, can't get over you" reveals a sense of dependence despite the unhappiness in the relationship.

The chorus suggests that the singer is trying to communicate with someone who is no longer present or who is ignoring them. They want to talk about important things that should not be left unsaid, and the line "this kind of words are forever" suggests a sense of urgency and finality. The added phrase "you're still wired, I'll message you" could be interpreted as an attempt to connect through technology, but also hints at the fact that the singer is reaching out to someone who has moved on from them.

The second verse continues this theme of trying to communicate with someone who is not listening, when the singer says "follow me, I'll give you the words to save your money." This line suggests that the singer knows how to help the other person, but there is a sense of frustration at the lack of communication. The final lines of the song repeat the phrase "when it's always the same that your love can be played," suggesting that the singer has accepted their situation and is resigned to the fact that their partner cannot or will not change.
