Trapped in a Lighthouse: Lost Promises & Longing
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Remember when I asked you just to stay

Expressing a memory of requesting someone to stay.

Said you’d be gone for a while but be back someday

The person assured a temporary departure with a promise to return.

But suddenly the truth doesn’t feel so safe

The truth is now unsettling and no longer feels secure.

You made a promise

Reference to a promise made by the person being addressed.

You didn’t keep it

Expressing disappointment as the promise was not kept.


There’s no windows in this lighthouse

Metaphorical reference to the absence of clarity or insight.

No answers to the questions why

Highlighting the lack of explanations for unanswered questions.

No way to be found, be found now

Emphasizing the difficulty of being located or found.

Through the fog

Referencing challenging circumstances represented by fog.

So I’m trapped in this lighthouse, lighthouse

Feeling confined or restricted in a metaphorical lighthouse.


My heart is getting cold as I count the days

Describing emotional detachment as days pass.

I would give my soul for the chance to see her

Expressing a willingness to make a significant sacrifice to reunite.

But all I see are these painted walls

Being surrounded by metaphorical barriers instead of the desired reunion.

I’m going crazy, crazy, crazy

Experiencing heightened emotional distress or frustration.


There’s no windows in this lighthouse

Reiteration of the lack of clarity or insight in the current situation.

No answers to the questions why

Reemphasizing the absence of satisfactory explanations.

No way to be found, be found now

Stressing the challenge of being found or located.

Through the fog

Continuing to depict challenging circumstances represented by fog.

So I’m trapped in this lighthouse, lighthouse

Reiterating the feeling of being confined or restricted.


This cliff I’m on is too steep to climb down

Describing a challenging and steep situation that is hard to overcome.

I need for you to save from drowning

Requesting assistance in avoiding a metaphorical drowning.

And a thousand tears will make a waterfall from me

Expressing intense emotional pain through tears.

You’ll see

Anticipating a visible emotional breakdown or release.

And it’s loud and clear that I’m not getting off this rock

Acknowledging the impossibility of leaving a difficult situation.

So stuck in this lighthouse

Feeling trapped and unable to escape from the metaphorical lighthouse.


There’s no windows in this lighthouse

Reiteration of the lack of clarity or insight in the current situation.

No answers to the questions why

Reemphasizing the absence of satisfactory explanations.

No way to be found, be found now

Stressing the challenge of being found or located.

Through the fog

Continuing to depict challenging circumstances represented by fog.

So I’m trapped in this lighthouse, lighthouse

Reiterating the feeling of being confined or restricted.
