Exit
Love's Liberation: Escaping the Rusty Cage - Black Atlass 'Exit' Meaning
Lyrics
Left
Feeling abandoned or departed
Wondering about you
Reflecting on thoughts about a person
My tropical flower
Describing someone as exotic and captivating
You cut like a thorn
Comparing the person to a sharp, painful element
And I can't speak
Unable to articulate feelings about the person
Words about you baby
Expressing difficulty in describing feelings for the person
You look like a movie
Portraying the person as aesthetically pleasing like in a movie
You love like a freak
Describing intense and unconventional love
I was a bird
Metaphorically trapped and constrained
Trapped in a rusted cage
Depicting a sense of confinement and restriction
I was alone
Emphasizing solitude and isolation
Until I saw you
Finding companionship and connection
Now we exit
Choosing to leave or move on
Now we exit this place
Exiting a current situation or state
Now we exit
Reinforcing the decision to leave
Now we exit this place
Emphasizing the departure from a place or circumstance
I was a fool
Acknowledging past foolishness or mistakes
Caught up in listless flames
Being entangled in unfulfilling emotions
Dark as the sky
Describing a dark and heavy emotional state
Before an August rain
Setting a scene with impending change or renewal
The curves of the waves
Drawing a connection between physical features and nature
Matched up with your waist
Highlighting the beauty and harmony of the person
You looked like a movie
Reiterating the cinematic quality of the person
Brought me through the screen
Experiencing a transformative impact from the person
I was a bird
Repeating the metaphor of being confined and limited
Trapped in a rusted cage
Expressing loneliness and constraint
I was alone
Reinforcing a sense of isolation
Until I saw you
Finding solace and connection with the person
Now we exit
Choosing to leave or move on (repeated)
Now we exit this place
Exiting a current situation or state (repeated)
Now we exit
Reinforcing the decision to leave (repeated)
Now we exit this place
Emphasizing the departure from a place or circumstance (repeated)
