Lyrics
I lose some sails
I experience setbacks or difficulties.
And my boss won't be happy
My employer is displeased with me.
But I can't stop listening to the sound
I am captivated by the sound.
Of two soft voices
Referring to the beautiful voices in the music.
Splendid in perfection, soft voices
Reiteration of the enchanting voices.
From the reels of this record that I found.
The source of these voices is a discovered record.
I lose some sails
Similar to line 1, facing challenges or obstacles.
And my boss won't be happy
Reiterating job dissatisfaction.
But I can't stop listening to the sound
Despite challenges, I'm absorbed in the music.
Of two soft voices
Reiteration of the captivating voices.
Splendid in perfection
Describing the voices as splendid and perfect.
From the reels of this record that I found
Reiterating the source of the voices, a found record.
Every day there's a boy in the mirror
A reflection on self-identity and purpose.
Asking me what I am doing here
A question about the speaker's current situation.
Finding all my previous motives
The speaker is losing clarity about their goals.
Growing increasingly unclear
The motives that drove the speaker are becoming unclear.
I traveled far and I burned all the bridges
The speaker has traveled extensively and severed connections.
I believed that soon as I had land
Believed that owning land would resolve everything.
All the other options now before me
Other options seem insignificant compared to the plan.
Will wither in the light of my plan
Confident that the plan will overshadow other choices.
So I lose some sails and my boss won't be happy
Reiteration of facing challenges and job dissatisfaction.
But there's only one thing on my mind
Single-minded focus on something important.
Search in boxes, underneath the counter
Searching for something specific under the counter.
On a chance that only tape I find
Searching for a particular tape.
A sun forth, someone that needs somewhere
Seeking someone who needs a place to long for.
To long for
Longing for someone who longs for something.
Someone who needs somewhere
Reiteration of the longing theme.
To long for.
Continuation of expressing a need for longing.
Homesick, cause I no longer know
Feeling homesick due to a lack of clarity.
Where home is
Unable to define or locate the concept of home.
Cause I no longer know.
Reiteration of the speaker's uncertainty about home.
