Siren Song
zazi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And yet there’s more, more to see
Than meets the eye, we sing our songs
So soft and sweet
We will bleed when you will pass us by
Why would you leave us all alone?
Oh, you should come, we’ll give you what you need
Come closer to our little lounge
So we can keep you on the sea
Its water dark as night
We are the light, we are the warm
Home and the haven in the storm
Lay down and everything will be alright
‘Cause we are lonely, so lonely
Would you please stay on our side?
For a minute
For a night
‘Cause we are lonely, so lonely
Would you please stay on our side?
For a minute
For a night
For a minute
For a night
The lyrics of Zazi's "Siren Song" describe the lure of the sea and the seductive powers of the sirens, who use their songs to attract and capture the attention of seafarers. The opening lines, "What you see is what you get, and yet there's more, more to see," suggest that the sirens are not simply the dangerous monsters of legend, but have hidden depths and secrets. They sing their songs "so soft and sweet," but "will bleed when you will pass us by," emphasizing their vulnerability and the desperation behind their seduction.
The next lines, "Why would you leave us all alone? Oh, you should come, we'll give you what you need," suggest that the sirens are not just seeking to capture sailors for their own pleasure, but are themselves lonely and in need of companionship. Their "little lounge" on the dark and dangerous sea is portrayed as a place of warmth and safety, a "home and the haven in the storm" where sailors can find refuge. The repetition of the lines "‘Cause we are lonely, so lonely, would you please stay on our side?" further emphasizes this sense of desperation and the need for human connection.
Overall, "Siren Song" is a haunting and evocative portrayal of the power of myth and the complex emotions that lie beneath the surface of seemingly simple stories.
