Lyrics
He lives in an empty deck
Living in solitude or isolation, symbolized by an empty deck.
Grey and silent waves
Surrounded by desolate and quiet waves, suggesting a sense of emptiness.
Eyes fixed in the horizon
Staring fixedly at the distant horizon, possibly indicating yearning or contemplation.
And he cries again
Expressing emotional pain through crying.
He feels all hope is lost
Feeling a loss of optimism or expectation.
His luck is gone
Luck has abandoned the individual.
Thinks there is no future
Believing there is no positive future ahead.
Keeps holding the rope
Clutching onto something, possibly representing a futile hope or lifeline.
The last ship has sailed away
Indicating missed opportunities or a sense of abandonment.
Sinking down down down
Sinking deeper into despair.
In deep water
Metaphorically submerged in challenging circumstances or emotions.
(Deep water, sinking down down down)
Reiterating the idea of sinking into profound difficulties.
The Rainbow's outta reach
Symbolizing unattainable happiness or goals.
He feels the pain
Experiencing emotional distress.
He tries to catch the light but
Attempting to find positivity or illumination, but facing obstacles.
He's with ball and chain
Feeling constrained or burdened, possibly by past actions or commitments.
Can't face reality
Avoiding confronting the harsh realities of the situation.
And tries to fade
Struggling to escape or detach from the difficulties.
He tries to hide, oh yes!
Seeking refuge or escape through substances like whisky and ale.
In whisky and ale
Continuing to drown sorrows in alcohol.
The last ship has sailed away
Repeating the idea of missed opportunities or abandonment.
Sinking down down down
Persistently sinking into a state of hopelessness.
In deep water
Emphasizing the deepening descent into despair.
(Deep water, sinking down down down)
Reiterating the theme of sinking into profound difficulties.
The last ship has sailed away
Highlighting the irrevocable nature of missed opportunities.
Sinking down down down
Continuing to descend into deep despair.
In deep water
Repeating the idea of sinking into challenging circumstances.
(Deep water, sinking down down down)
Emphasizing the deepening descent into profound difficulties.
(Deep water)
Reinforcing the theme of sinking into despair.
A white sail is crossing now the line
Introducing a symbolic image of hope with a white sail.
(Deep water)
Acting to break free from constraints or troubles.
Pulls the chain and break it down
Seeing an opportunity to escape pain and suffering.
(Deep water)
Discovering a chance for relief or liberation.
Sees a chance to leave his pain behind
Attaining a symbol of happiness or success, represented by the Rainbow.
(Deep water)
Preparing to embark on a journey towards a better future.
Rainbow's now right at his hand
Achieving a sense of accomplishment or reaching a desired goal.
He will sail and sail away
Committing to a journey away from difficulties towards a promised land.
To the promised land through deep water
Continuing the metaphor of sailing away from deep troubles.
(Deep water, sail away and away)
Repeating the idea of sailing away to a better place.
(Deep water, deep water, deep water...)
Concluding with a repetition of the deep water theme, possibly signifying the ongoing challenges or emotions.
