Like a Cod in the Sea
Eternal Echoes: A Melancholic Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
Remember the time when we drove all night
Reflecting on a past experience of driving throughout the night.
There was only you and I
Highlighting the presence of only two individuals during that time.
But now I’m dead and you’re alive
Expressing a sense of personal demise while acknowledging the other person's continued existence.
So there’s no longer you and I
Conveying the end of the collective "you and I" due to the speaker's death.
I hear your laughter in the night
Perceiving the laughter of the other person during the night.
I’m trying to sleep and think “it’s allright”
Struggling to sleep but attempting to convince oneself that everything is fine.
Just like a cod is chained to the sea
Drawing a simile between the speaker's situation and a cod being tethered to the sea, suggesting a feeling of being constrained or trapped.
Just like a bee in a cherry tree
Continuing the simile, likening the speaker's state to a bee in a cherry tree, possibly indicating a sense of isolation or being out of place.
Daa da, daa da, da
Repetition of nonspecific syllables, possibly indicating a musical interlude or a moment of emotional expression.
Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
-Your eyes are flying in the sky
Metaphorically describing the other person's emotional detachment - eyes soaring in the sky.
Your heart is buried in the ground
Contrastingly, noting that their heart is buried, suggesting emotional heaviness or suppression.
Your hands strapped to a chair
Describing physical constraint through imagery of hands strapped to a chair.
But I don’t feel anything
Expressing the speaker's emotional numbness or lack of response to the other person's situation.
Daa da, daa da, da
Repetition of nonspecific syllables, possibly indicating a continuation of the emotional or musical theme.
Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
Continuation of nonspecific syllables, maintaining a certain emotional tone or musical element.
Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
-Daa da, daa da, da
