Bodyless
Yendri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They read your thougts, they know your brain
They bring you sunlight, they make it rain
Don't need to eat, don't need to drink
Don't need to sleep, just think, think, think, think

Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential

There is no ground, there is no sky
Cause you can't walk, you cannot fly
Not even day, not even night
The only thing is light, light, light, light

Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential

There is no room, there is no space
There is no sound, there is no taste
You cannot stay, you cannot flee
You cannot die, just be, be, be, be

Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential
Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential




Who needs a body anymore, just material
Who can tell us what it's for, not essential

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Yendri's song "Bodyless" explore the idea of transcending physical limitations and living purely in the realm of thought and consciousness. The song describes a state in which one's thoughts are read by some external force, and that force has control over the environment, bringing sunlight or rain. The repetition of the phrase "just material" throughout the song emphasizes the idea that the physical body is no longer necessary or essential, as the mind has become disconnected from the constraints of the physical world.


The lyrics also describe how without a body, there is no need for physical necessities like food, drink, or sleep. The lack of a physical form also means that there is no ground, sky, or ability to walk or fly. Instead, the only thing that exists is light, which adds to the ethereal and otherworldly nature of the song.


As the song progresses, it becomes clear that this state of being is not without its limitations. There is no room, space, sound, or taste - only the experience of being. The final line, "you cannot die, just be, be, be, be," highlights the eternal nature of this existence, but also the potential monotony that could come with a lack of external stimuli.


Overall, "Bodyless" is a meditation on the idea of the mind being able to exist outside of the physical body and the limitations that come with that. The repetition of phrases and simple structure of the song add to the hypnotic and dreamlike quality of the lyrics.
