Horseshoe Crab
Navigating the Unfamiliar Depths: Decoding the Meaning Behind 'Horseshoe Crab'
Lyrics
I learned that hunger is a symptom
Hunger is a consequence or indication
of adopting bad behavior
Resulting from adopting negative actions or habits
I bit my tongue last night
Inadvertently injured my tongue
Woke up with blood on my pillow
Woke up with blood on the pillow as a result of biting the tongue
I woke up thirsty
Awoke feeling thirsty
Words makes less sense to me these days
Difficulty understanding words, feeling disconnected
Faces looks flat and unfamiliar
Faces seem two-dimensional and strange
Do you wanna rest forever?
Questioning the desire for eternal rest
Underwater it gets better
Suggesting life improves in an underwater setting
When I get better
Expressing the intention to improve or recover
I'll treat you like I used to
Desire to treat someone as in the past
I'll do the things you want me to
Willingness to do what someone desires
Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse
Feeling akin to a seahorse at times
Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab
Identifying with being a horseshoe crab
I don't have anything in common
Perceiving no commonalities
With myself, except that I came from the sea
Feeling disconnected from oneself
Just like everyone else did
Reflection on everyone's origins in the sea
But it is so unfamiliar now
Expressing unfamiliarity with the current situation
Everything is so unfamiliar now
Sense of everything being unfamiliar
I learned that hunger is the same thing
Reiteration of hunger being linked to negative actions
As adopting bad behavior
Restating the connection between hunger and bad behavior
I bit my tongue last night
Repeating the action of biting the tongue
Woke up with blood on my pillow
Recurrence of waking with blood on the pillow
I woke up thirsty
Reiteration of waking up thirsty
Words makes less sense to me these days
Continued difficulty comprehending words
Faces looks flat and unfamiliar
Faces still appear unfamiliar and flat
Do you wanna rest forever?
Reiteration of contemplating eternal rest
Underwater it gets better
Reiteration of improvement underwater
When I get better
Expressing a desire for personal improvement
I'll treat you like I used to
Intent to revert to past behavior towards someone
I'll do the things you want me to
Willingness to fulfill someone's desires
Sometimes I feel like I'm a seahorse
Reiteration of feeling like a seahorse at times
Sometimes I think that I'm a horseshoe crab
Reiteration of identification with a horseshoe crab
I don't have anything in common
Feeling disconnected from oneself again
With myself, except that I came from the sea
Reflecting on everyone's origin from the sea once more
Just like everyone else did
Expressing unfamiliarity with the current state again
But it is so unfamiliar now
Continued sense of everything being unfamiliar
Everything is so unfamiliar now
Reiteration of the sense of unfamiliarity with everything
