Underwater
naturesoundsfor.me Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You say you swore you heard it start last night
I wonder if you're right
Walk me down the street
Sit me on your front porch swing
And sing me something sweet until I fall asleep
You'll drive till you crash
That nothing ever lasts
And you just end up sleeping with the past
Something's always missing
And you know you're moving too slow
It feels like dancing on wedding rings
When there's no difference between diamonds and glass
Someday soon all the flowers are gonna bloom
And when they do, I'll be looking for you
The lyrics to "Underwater" by naturesoundsfor.me contain a sense of introspection and melancholy. The song starts with the imagery of listening for a heartbeat underwater, which can be interpreted as an attempt to escape the world and tune one's senses to another realm. The singer seems to be struggling with the concept of time and the fleeting nature of life. They question the validity of their experiences and wonder whether they are moving too slow. The line "something's always missing" suggests a sense of longing and unfulfillment, while "dancing on wedding rings" and "no difference between diamonds and glass" symbolize the notion of false illusions and the idea that material possessions do not bring happiness.
The song's second half shifts from personal reflection to a more hopeful outlook, as it talks about the coming of spring and the rebirth of nature. The singer declares that they will be searching for someone when the flowers bloom, indicating that they haven't given up on love despite their introspection and struggles with time.
Overall, "Underwater" is a beautifully written song that tackles complex themes such as the transience of life, the search for meaning, and the tug of war between hope and despair.
Line by Line Meaning
You've been listening for a heartbeat underwater
You have been trying to hear a sound while being submerged in water
You say you swore you heard it start last night
You believe that you heard a particular sound last night
I wonder if you're right
I am uncertain if your belief is accurate
Walk me down the street
Accompany me as we stroll down the road
Sit me on your front porch swing
Permit me to rest on your front porch seat that moves back and forth
And sing me something sweet until I fall asleep
Serenade me with a melodious tune until I drift off into slumber
You'll drive till you crash
You will operate a vehicle until you collide
But you always seem to want to go so fucking fast
However, you perpetually have the desire to travel at an excessive speed
That nothing ever lasts
Things do not remain permanently
And you just end up sleeping with the past
You end up having experiences only with previous events
Something's always missing
There is always a sense of something not present
And you know you're moving too slow
You are aware that you are not progressing at a desirable pace
It feels like dancing on wedding rings
It gives the sensation of swaying while wearing a wedding band
When there's no difference between diamonds and glass
When there is no contrast between precious gems and ordinary glass
Someday soon all the flowers are gonna bloom
In the near future, all the plants will blossom
And when they do, I'll be looking for you
At that time, I will be searching for you
