Lyrics
It seems so long ago
Reflecting on a distant past.
We both crashed down over the same coast
Both individuals experienced a downfall in the same location.
And now you're letting go
A realization that someone is moving on.
The system's overloaded and slow
The system or relationship is overwhelmed and sluggish.
Like the setting sun fades
Comparing the fading of a sunset to a situation evolving into uncertainty.
Into the waves we go
Metaphorically descending into unknown circumstances.
Something down below
An ominous presence emerging from below.
Is waking up to swallow you whole
A looming threat ready to consume completely.
And on the radio
Receiving messages or warnings via radio.
They're signaling the ending in code
Signals indicating the conclusion, possibly in a cryptic manner.
And I can't figure out
Expressing confusion about the situation.
The signs all pointed out
Indications were present but not understood.
You were fine
An assertion that everything seemed fine.
The landing gear was down
Assurance that preparations were made for a safe landing.
They said you made a sound
Confirmation of a noise or signal during the descent.
But all I hear
Unable to perceive anything except interference.
Is static through the wire
The struggle to comprehend amidst communication issues.
And I can't figure out
Reiterating the challenge of understanding the signs.
The signs all pointed out
Recognition that things seemed normal.
You were fine
Reiteration of the belief in a safe landing.
The landing gear was down
Confirmation of the expected landing condition.
They said you made a sound
Affirmation of a perceived sound during the descent.
But all I hear
Despite expectations, only interference is heard.
Is static through the wire
Continued struggle to understand amid communication challenges.
