Embracing Life's Shadows: Know Your Quarry's Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
When I was young, I first encountered my crippled lungs
Reflecting on a youthful experience of respiratory difficulties and their lasting impact.
I felt them burn, and cursed them ever since
Expressing resentment towards the lungs for causing pain and discomfort.
I was turning blue, in a match right in front of you
Describing a moment of distress, possibly struggling to breathe and turning blue.
And I slithered to the floor, hope I score some more
Falling to the ground, hoping for relief or escape from the situation.
I won't go where the sun doesn't shine
Declining to engage in unpleasant or uncomfortable situations.
Go crazy in the evening if we sail upright
Suggesting a willingness to experience chaos or madness when conditions are favorable.
Love is a shadow, in the brightness it dies
Commenting on the ephemeral nature of love, emphasizing its vulnerability.
Because tonight
Announcing a pivotal moment or event about to unfold.
We raise the sun, and we shine it over everyone
Symbolizing the act of bringing light and positivity to others.
If we want a gradual hush
Desiring a gradual silence or calmness in the atmosphere.
Our lips should kiss each other so
Suggesting intimacy through a call for kissing.
I just want to feel your body
Expressing a desire for physical connection.
I want you to know your quarry
Stressing the importance of understanding one's own pursuits or goals.
You can see the world looking down from a different universe
Contemplating the world from a unique perspective and questioning the ability to save others.
Can we save every single one of them, if we only have five hands
Pondering the limitations of helping others, even with good intentions.
My father cradled us; we're bright blue and we're covered in blood
Recalling a moment of parental care, possibly during a difficult time.
We staggered through the door, trouble's taken score
Narrating a challenging experience and the aftermath of facing problems.
I won't go where the sun doesn't shine
Reiterating a reluctance to engage in undesirable situations or experiences.
Go crazy in the evening if we sail upright
Suggesting a willingness to embrace chaos or madness under specific circumstances.
Love is a shadow, in the brightness it dies
Reiterating the transient nature of love, emphasizing its vulnerability.
Because tonight
Re-emphasizing the significance of the impending event or moment.
We raise the sun, and we shine it over everyone
Symbolizing the act of spreading positivity and light to everyone.
If we want a gradual hush
Expressing a desire for a gradual calming or quieting of the surroundings.
