Flaming
Unveiling the Ethereal: Pink Floyd's Flaming Metaphor
Lyrics
Alone in the clouds all blue
Feeling isolated and contemplative in a serene, heavenly setting.
Lying on an eiderdown
Relaxing on a soft quilt or comforter.
Yippee, you can't see me
Expressing joy or excitement at being unnoticed.
But I can you
Acknowledging the ability to observe others while remaining unseen.
Lazing in the foggy dew
Engaging in leisurely activities in a misty atmosphere.
Sitting on a unicorn
Sitting on a mythical creature, perhaps signifying a surreal or dreamlike state.
No fair, you can't hear me
Expressing frustration at not being heard.
But I can you
Asserting the ability to hear others despite being unheard.
Watching buttercups cup the light
Observing the beauty of nature, specifically the way buttercups capture light.
Sleeping on a dandelion
Sleeping on a delicate and fleeting flower.
Too much, I won't touch you
Declining excessive closeness or intimacy.
But then I might
Expressing a possibility of reconsidering the decision.
Screaming through the starlit sky
Conveying intense emotion, possibly frustration or exhilaration.
Traveling by telephone
Traversing distances through communication, possibly metaphorical.
Hey ho, here we go
Expressing excitement or readiness to embark on a journey.
Ever so high
Describing a heightened state, both physically and metaphorically.
Alone in the clouds all blue
Reiterating the initial feeling of solitude in a tranquil environment.
Lying on an eiderdown
Resting on a soft surface, mirroring the opening lines.
Yippee, you can't see me
Repeating the joyful realization of being unseen.
But I can you
Reaffirming the ability to observe others while remaining unnoticed.
