Lyrics
We built our own city
We established our own community or world.
Under the water
Metaphorical description of the city being underwater.
The ships above drifting
Ships floating above the city, seemingly disconnected.
Never really mattered
The ships' presence didn't have significance or impact.
But now emotions flood into my head with pieces of
Strong emotions emerging, reminiscent of a discarded future.
The future left behind I look above them all tonight
A reflection on the abandoned possibilities from the past.
"Maybe tonight, I'll swim across, up to the dawn"
Contemplating taking a risk to embrace a new beginning.
Oh blinding lights
Repeated emphasis on the overwhelming presence of blinding lights and the uncertainty of understanding or solving the situation.
Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think we know?
-Blinding lights
-Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think we can figure it out?
-As I hit the sand, I feel
Feeling the immense pressure or responsibility.
The weight of the world
Sense of burden or heaviness.
Don't tell me it's a long dream
Questioning the reality of the situation.
My head is finally unblurred
Finally having clarity of thought.
In circles, we strived in dark, raged and cried
Desire to move forward despite past struggles and commitment to support someone.
Let it all slide 'cause I won't leave you high and dry
-So tonight, can we still carry on?
-Oh blinding lights
Reiterated uncertainty regarding understanding and solving the situation despite the overwhelming presence of blinding lights.
Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think we know?
-Blinding lights
-Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think We can figure it out?
-I don't wanna live
Expressing a desire for a meaningful existence and seeking assurance of shared feelings.
just like that
-and I don't wanna die
-just like that
-Don't you feel the same?
-Don't you feel the same?
-We built our own city
Repetition of the description of the underwater city and the insignificance of ships above.
Under the water
-The ships above drifting
-Never really mattered
-We built our own city
Duplicating the previous verse to reinforce the sentiment of longing for a dream while questioning the ability to move forward.
Under the water
-I'll miss everything I dreamed
-But can we still carry on?
-Oh blinding lights
Reiterated confusion and uncertainty about comprehending and resolving the situation despite the dominating blinding lights.
Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think we know?
-Blinding lights
-Oh blinding lights
-Don't you think
-We can figure it out?
-Oh blinding lights
Final emphasis on the overpowering nature of blinding lights.
Oh blinding lights
