Isolation
Embracing Solitude: Killstation's Echoes of Longing in 'Isolation'
Lyrics
Waiting all night for you
Expressing impatience and longing, waiting for someone throughout the night.
Waiting all night for you
-Why'd you take so long to get here?
Questioning the delay in the person's arrival.
I've been waiting all night for you
Reiterating the waiting theme, emphasizing the anticipation throughout the night.
I could tell you this song's about you
Suggesting that the song is dedicated to the person, but acknowledging it's not entirely true.
But you know that that shit ain't true
-Why'd you take so long to get here?
Repeating the question about the delay, reinforcing the impatience.
I've been waiting all night for you
Reiterating the prolonged wait for the person.
I could tell you this song's about you
Repeating the idea that the song is about the person but acknowledging its falsehood.
But you know that that shit ain't (True)
-When the sky is finally falling
Describing a feeling of solitude when faced with adversity, expressing a sense of waiting with nothing to lose.
I'm alone in my room
-I'll be waiting where I started
-I've got nothing to lose
-When the sky is finally falling
Continuing the theme of waiting and expressing a departure before the morning due to the other person's actions.
I'm alone in your room
-I'll be gone before the morning 'cause
-The shit that you do
-Such a lonely life now that you're gone
Reflecting on a lonely life after the person is gone, suggesting a prolonged experience of slowing down time.
I've been slowing time down for so long
-Such a lonely life now that you're gone
-I've been slowing time down, for so long
-Why'd you take so long to get here?
Repeating the questions about the delay and the false claim that the song is about the person.
I've been waiting all night for you
-I could tell you this song's about you
-But you know that that shit ain't true
-Why'd you take so long to get here?
Reiterating the impatience and the acknowledgment that the song's dedication is not entirely truthful.
I've been waiting all night for you
-I could tell you this song's about you
-But you know that that shit ain't
-When the sky is finally falling
Repeating the theme of waiting in solitude and emphasizing having nothing to lose during the falling sky.
I'm alone in my room
-I'll be waiting where I started
-I got nothing to lose
-When the sky is finally falling
Continuing the waiting theme, expressing departure before morning due to the person's actions.
I'm alone in your room

-The shit that you do
-Such a lonely life now that you're gone
Reflecting on the loneliness after the person's departure and the extended experience of slowing down time.
