False Bay
Lost on False Bay: A Tale of Separation
Lyrics
These cliffs are turning to red
Expressing a change as cliffs transform into a red hue.
In my riverbed
Referencing a personal space or emotional state represented by a riverbed.
My shattered innocence
Reflecting on lost innocence or past purity.
These tides are churning into a storm
Describing turbulent tides evolving into a storm.
That pulls along
The storm influencing and dragging things along, raising questions of morality.
Who's right or wrong
Contemplating the ambiguity of right and wrong in the situation.
And I feel close to you now
Feeling a sense of closeness despite being in opposing positions.
Even though you stand opposite me now
Acknowledging the physical separation despite emotional connection.
And I don't know why you left me on the other side
Expressing confusion and questioning the reason for being left on the other side.
I'm looking, I'm looking to what's left behind
Searching and reflecting on what remains in the past.
Oh but here I stand on the other side of False Bay harbour
Stating the current position on the other side of False Bay harbour.
And I don't know why you left me on the other side of False Bay harbour
Reiterating the confusion about being left on the other side of False Bay harbour.
Oh, tonight
Highlighting the emotional intensity of the present moment, possibly night.
My first thoughts were of your mind
Initial thoughts centered around the other person's mind.
I'm getting lost inside
Getting mentally lost or absorbed in thoughts.
But seek and ye shall find
Encouraging the idea of searching leading to discoveries.
These coastal plains are warping into a maze
Describing the transformation of coastal plains into a confusing maze.
And in my hungered craze
Experiencing a state of intense desire or hunger, potentially clouding judgment.
I'm losing sight again
Losing clarity and perspective in the midst of intense emotions.
And I feel close to you now
Reiterating a sense of emotional closeness despite physical separation.
Even though you stand opposite me now
Acknowledging the stand-off with the other person.
And I don't know why you left me on the other side
Expressing uncertainty about the reasons for being left on the other side.
Still, I'm looking, looking to what's left behind
Continuing to search and look back at what's left behind.
But here I stand on the other side of False Bay harbour
Restating the current position on the other side of False Bay harbour.
And I don't know why you left me on the other side of False Bay harbour
Reiterating the uncertainty about being left on the other side of False Bay harbour.
Tonight
Emphasizing the significance of the present night.
But here I stand on the other side of False Bay harbour
Repeating the stance on the other side of False Bay harbour.
And I don't know why you left me on the other side of False Bay harbour
Reiterating the confusion about being left on the other side of False Bay harbour.
Tonight
Reiterating the emotional intensity of the present night.
