Replicant
A Journey Through Melancholic Hues: Decoding Still There's 'Replicant'
Lyrics
It feels like I've been
Expressing a sensation of familiarity
Starting to notice
Becoming aware of
Colours again
Perceiving colors anew
For the first time
Experiencing something for the first time
Those kind and dulcet tones
Describing pleasant and gentle sounds
However melancholy
Although sad, matched well with the sky
Paired well with the sky
Complemented the lightened blue sky
A lightened blue
Describing a serene and calm atmosphere
Quiet and serene
A peaceful and tranquil setting
Maybe this is the start of something
Indicating the beginning of something new
And I have heard it said
Heard a belief that one can recover from setbacks
That anyone can bounce back
Expressing the possibility of bouncing back
And if that's true
Contemplating the truth of this belief
Can you ever really be sure
Questioning the certainty of bouncing back
As I watched the light fade
Observing the fading of light
Turned tarnished and grey
Turning dull and colorless
No longer reflecting
No longer reflecting light
With no recollection of the hue of yesteryear
Without memory of past colors
Who's to say what's left here
Uncertainty about what remains
I don't know why I think
Uncertain about expectations and outcomes
That things would work out or just happen for me
Doubting the possibility of success or chance
Getting out there only sent me back home
Attempting to engage but returning home disappointed
With an emptiness thought to be long gone
Feeling an old emptiness resurface
Why
Questioning the reason behind the actions
Why try when all of the worst things came true tonight
Questioning the motivation to try when faced with negativity
Why try when all of the worst things came true tonight
Reiterating the doubt in trying when faced with negativity
Can - can I
Expressing doubt or uncertainty
If I could, I would have
Expressing a desire to change past actions if possible
If I could, I would have
Reiterating the desire to change past actions if possible
Can I
Expressing doubt or uncertainty
If I could, I would have
Reiterating the desire to change past actions if possible
If I could, I would have
-So there we are; here again
Ending up in a familiar situation
