Unseen
Zed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's four o'clock in the morning,
And I'm sick again,
Of the constant dripping,
I hear from that old tin can.

And the roof's been leaking endlessly,
For days on end,
And I kinda get the feeling,
That it should be mended.

I don't mind, Ahhhh.

And this time,
I'm really going to say,
What I mean,
I'll just fly away.

And in time,
You'd better hope and pray.
Unseen.
It won't go astray.

And I'd televise my ignorance,
For all to see,
Cos I'd guarantee success,
And let it come right back at me.

And you'd blame it on.
What looks like your big fantasy,
But you can't blame me,
Cos the whole wide world's gone stark raving crazy.

I don't mind, Ahhhh.

And this time,
I'm really going to say,
What I mean,
I'll just fly away.

And in time,
You'd better hope and pray.
Unseen.
It won't go astray.

I don't think you're late,
Or it's,
All gone to waste,
So c'mon and dream.

C'mon let's dream,
C'mon and dream.
C'mon and dream.

And this time,
I'm really going to say,
C'mon and dream.
What I mean,
I'll just fly away.

And in time,
You'd better hope and pray,
C'mon and dream,
It won't go astray.





This is all that time will let you by,
This is all that time will let you by.

Overall Meaning

The opening verse of “Unseen” starts with a laid back and almost weary tone. The singer says that it is four o'clock in the morning and they are sick again. What they are sick of is not specified but the constant dripping from an old tin can is adding to their annoyance. The dripping seems to be coming from a leaking roof, which has been leaking endlessly for several days. Despite the inconvenience, there is a sense of calmness in the way it is described. The singer says, “I don't mind, Ahhhh.” indicating a sense of acceptance.


The second verse talks about the singer flying away and hoping that they won't go astray. They say that they'd televise their ignorance for everyone to see, indicating a sense of vulnerability but also a conviction to be genuine. They also suggest that others may blame their failures on what looks like their big fantasy, but they cannot be blamed because the whole wide world has gone stark raving crazy. Through the lyrics, the singer emphasizes the importance of being true to oneself even when it is not appreciated or understood.


The last part of the song says, “This is all that time will let you by, this is all that time will let you by.” This line emphasizes the importance of using the time wisely and not wasting it on things that are not important. The song seems to suggest that it is better to dream and go after the things you want rather than be stuck in a situation that one is not happy with.
