Opus 40
Emotional Depths Unveiled: Opus 40's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Well she tossed all night like a raging sea
Restless night, turmoil likened to a stormy sea.
Woke up and climbed from the suicide machine
Woke up and emerged from a device associated with self-destruction or despair.
With her Spanish candles and her Persian poems
Possessing items from different cultures, possibly seeking solace or meaning.
Stuck on the rocks inside opus 40 stoned
Trapped in a difficult situation symbolized by "opus 40" and affected by intoxication.
And scratching her wrists in the pouring rain
Engaged in self-harm, reflecting inner pain during a rainstorm.
She collapses down upon the ocean floor again
Emotional collapse, sinking into despair as if sinking to the ocean floor.
Tears in waves minds on fire
Intense emotions expressed through tears and a racing mind.
Nights alone by your side
Nights spent alone but in proximity to someone.
Catskill mansions buried screams I'm alive
Reference to the Catskill Mountains, possibly alluding to buried pain or memories.
She cried but I don't know what it means
The person is crying, but the narrator doesn't understand the significance.
Somewhere out there across the moonlit sands
A distant place with moonlit sands, hinting at a symbolic distance or separation.
There's a line drawn like the lines on her own hand
A line drawn, reminiscent of scars or life experiences, mirroring her own hand.
And slamming her eyes locking the door
Closing off emotionally, possibly by shutting the door and blocking out feelings.
She collapses down upon the ocean floor again
Repeating the pattern of emotional collapse, sinking again to the ocean floor.
Tears in waves minds on fire
Reiteration of intense emotional pain and a racing mind.
Nights alone by your side
Lonely nights spent alongside someone, highlighting emotional distance.
Tears in waves minds on fire
Repeating the theme of tears in waves and a mind consumed by fire.
Nights alone by your side
Nights of solitude, remaining by the side of someone, perhaps in emotional isolation.
