Monastery
Monastery of Liberation: A Musical Escape from Heartbreak
Lyrics
Now you're gone
Expressing the absence of someone.
Where will I go
Contemplating where to go without the person.
I don't need you anyway
Claiming independence and not needing the person.
I'll go somewhere far away
Deciding to travel to a distant place.
I'll live on a mountain top
Choosing to reside on a mountain top.
A solitary mountain top
Emphasizing solitude on the chosen mountain top.
Yeah, it's quite unorthodox
Acknowledging the unconventional nature of the decision.
I'll have my bald friends with me
Reference to companions on the journey, described as "bald friends."
Monastery, floating hills, so foggy
Mentioning a monastery and floating hills with fog.
Just wait till the dawn, and I'll leave here
Planning to depart at dawn.
A monastery, tops of clouds can be seen
Describing the monastery with clouds visible from the top.
And I'll relive that moment all over
Expressing the intent to relive a significant moment.
And it's all your fault
Attributing negative emotions and consequences to the person.
You and I
Referencing the relationship between the speaker and the person.
Us and them
Introducing a contrast between "us and them."
I thought I had found love
Believing initially that love was found.
Turns out it was just a bluff
Realizing that it was a deception or falsehood.
You deceived me
Accusing the person of deceit.
You hurt me, and thieved me
Expressing pain and feeling robbed by the person.
I find it hard to believe
Expressing disbelief in the situation.
It doesn't matter now I'm leaving for
Announcing the decision to leave for the monastery.
The monastery, floating hills, so foggy
Repeating the description of the monastery and foggy hills.
Just wait till the dawn, and I'll leave here
Reiterating the plan to leave at dawn.
A monastery, tops of clouds can be seen
Repeating the description of the monastery with cloud views.
And I'll relive that moment all over
Repeating the intent to relive a significant moment.
And it's all your fault
Reiterating the attribution of blame to the person.
It's all your fault
Emphasizing that everything is the person's fault.
Yeah, yeah
Adding emphasis and frustration to the blame.
I did nothing wrong
Denying personal wrongdoing and asserting innocence.
So I sing you this song
Expressing emotions through a song for the person.
For my baby
Dedicating the song to a significant other.
Play that sweet guitar
Mentioning a musical element, playing the guitar.
