Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

having a walk of night

Referencing a nighttime stroll

just like Mersault

Comparing oneself to Mersault, a character known for existential detachment in literature

God is dead

Declaring the non-existence or irrelevance of God

and I don't care

Expressing apathy towards the concept of God's absence

who is ugly

Disregarding superficial beauty standards

what is fair

Rejecting the significance of what is considered just or fair

nothing means nothing

Stating a nihilistic perspective that emphasizes the absence of meaning


don't tell the winter moon

Addressing the winter moon, a poetic way of expressing loneliness

I am so lonely

Expressing deep feelings of isolation and solitude

blackbird cave

Referring to a cave inhabited by blackbirds, possibly symbolizing refuge or a safe space

sings me goodnight

Indicating comfort or solace from the blackbird's song at night


don't tell the winter moon

Reiterating a plea to the winter moon not to bring happiness

to shine me happy

Desiring not to be uplifted or brought out of a state of melancholy

blackbird cave

Referring again to the blackbird's cave as a source of comfort

touch me to night

Seeking comfort or connection through the blackbird's touch at night


lets go to a party

Proposing going to a gathering in nature, possibly symbolizing escaping societal norms

in the forest

Describing a desire for a different, more natural setting for the gathering

I am you

Blurring the lines between oneself and another, suggesting a merging of identities

as you are known

Claiming familiarity or recognition of each other's essence

all together

Emphasizing a collective experience despite individuality

we are alone

Highlighting a paradoxical sense of unity within solitude


nothing means nothing

Reiterating the nihilistic perspective on the absence of meaning
