Lyrics

We share this shimmering black pain

We mutually experience this intense emotional pain that seems dark and all-encompassing.

Our pride and joy in suffering

We take pride and find a strange sense of happiness in enduring suffering.

Hüzün, hüzün I call your name

"Hüzün" is a Turkish word for melancholy or deep sadness. It's being invoked as a recognition or acknowledgment of this feeling.

I know you know we are the same

There's a shared understanding that acknowledges the commonality of experiencing this pain.


He wants it all

Desire for everything, yet facing an obstacle that prevents achieving those desires, leading to an inevitable failure.

She wants it all

-

They want it all

-

But there's a wall

-

He wants it all

-

She wants it all

-

They want it all

-

But they will falter

-

We swim the sea of suffering

Reiteration of the desire for everything, the existence of a barrier, and the inevitable failure to attain those desires.

Bathed in the joy of our black pain

-

Hüzün, hüzün I call your name

-

I know you know we are the same

-

He wants it all

-

She wants it all

-

They want it all

-

But there's a wall

-

He wants it all

She wants it all

-

They want it all

-

But they will falter

-

He needs her closer

But she's made her mind up

-

(Like anybody else) and it's

-

Not for you

You gotta find your way out

This ain't working out

You gotta find your way out

You gotta find your way out

This ain't working out

You gotta find your way out
