Beyond Waves: A Deep Dive into Life's Tempestuous Currents
Lyrics
The color in the sea is like the fire in a fever dream
The color in the sea is vivid, reminiscent of the intensity found in a fever dream.
We can't tell where the bottom is but we can see it's real deep
The depth of the sea is challenging to discern, but it is evidently profound.
It's a mirror it's a mother its the place where all life springs
The sea is described as a mirror and a mother, symbolizing its reflective and life-giving qualities.
Carry currents in the undertow like planets in the gravity
The sea carries currents in its undertow, likened to planets influenced by gravity.
She wraps a cloak around her made of thunderbolts and storm clouds
The sea is personified, wrapping itself in a cloak made of thunderbolts and storm clouds, portraying its formidable nature.
Her anger is a tempest known to bring the bravest down
The sea's anger is compared to a tempest capable of bringing down even the bravest.
In her surface see milky way like pears on the waves
The surface of the sea reflects the Milky Way, resembling pears on the waves.
They glitter in the depths where leviathan dream
Glittering depths where mythical creatures like leviathan dream are mentioned.
Far from the ocean

I want to go back now
An expressed longing to return to a different place or time.

How did we get so far

There's no such thing is time count her lifespan in the ages

A billion eyes traverse the depths below the gauges
A billion eyes, possibly referring to various perspectives, observe the depths of the sea.
High up on a boat I ride the top of sea waves
Personal experience riding sea waves on a boat, contemplating the unity of future and past.
Staring into our future and the past it's same thing
Reflecting on the continuity of human existence with those who came before and those who will come after.
Many were here before you and many will come there after
Describing a cyclical pattern, akin to the turning of a chapter.
Turning in the cycle like turning of a chapter
Leaving one's roots may lead to being caught up in the wind, with uncertainty about landing again.
When you leave your roots you get caught up into the wind
Uncertainty about the future and the possibility of returning to familiar ground.
Nobody can say if you will ever land again
Nobody can predict if and when one will find stability again.
Comin on right back down get your feet here on the ground
Encouragement to come back down to reality and reconnect with one's roots.
Get hyptnosites the the s0re and footprints and the sound
Invoking hypnosis, sores, footprints, and sounds, suggesting a surreal or dreamlike state.
Everyone can recognize the voice of thier mother
The universal recognition of a mother's voice, even from a distance, likened to the crackle of thunder.
Calling from the distance like the crackle of thunder
