Z.O.E. Soundtracks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Red heart tender
Golden yellow glow
What looks good isolation
All alone always
I never did like talking anyway
I never did like talking anyway
Enslaved your mental state
Your gaze remains
I never did like talking anyway
I never did like talking anyway
Clouds roll in
I'm rolling
Just a hint im a glimmer
Oh oh I am vaporous air
I never did like talking
Anyway, you've always so much to say
The mountain tip
Red heart tender
These lyrics depict a person's experience of isolation and a preference for solitude. The mountain tip symbolizes a place of isolation and detachment, while the description of the heart as "red" and "tender" suggests vulnerability and sensitivity. The mention of a "golden yellow glow" could imply a sense of warmth or comfort in this solitude.
The repetition of the phrase "I never did like talking anyway" emphasizes the persona's aversion to communication and conversation. It suggests a preference for introspection and a reluctance to engage with others verbally. This sentiment is reinforced by the following lines, which refer to the mental state being enslaved and the chains of one's gaze. It implies that speaking can be restricting and confining to the persona's thoughts and emotions.
As the verse progresses, the persona acknowledges their own nature, describing themselves as "vaporous air" and a mere hint or glimmer. This imagery further reinforces the feeling of detachment from others and a sense of ethereality. The repetition of "I never did like talking" implies a desire to be heard and understood without the need for verbal communication, as well as frustration with others who seem to have a lot to say.
The last line, "The mountain tip, red heart tender," returns to the initial imagery, closing the song with a reminder of the persona's isolation and sensitivity. It encapsulates the overarching theme of the lyrics - the persona's preference for solitude and their connection to the natural world. Overall, these lyrics delve into the introspective nature of the persona and their desire for silence and non-verbal understanding.

Just a hint I'm a glimmer
A small indication of my presence or existence
Oh oh I am vaporous air
I am like a formless and ethereal substance
Anyway, you've always so much to say
Regardless, you always have a lot to talk about
