Six Eight
Navigating the Depths of Solitude: Stone Temple Pilots' 'Six Eight' Reflections
Lyrics
Wait, come get lost in my reflection
Expressing an invitation to explore and lose oneself in the speaker's reflection, suggesting introspection or self-exploration.
But there's nothing honey to help ease the soul, yeah
Acknowledging a lack of comforting elements to soothe the soul, highlighting a sense of emptiness or absence of solace.
There's nobody to carry us now
Noting the absence of support or assistance, emphasizing a feeling of abandonment or isolation.
There's no one when we're out here alone
Highlighting the loneliness when facing challenges alone, underscoring the speaker's sense of solitude.
It's all fighting and violence
Describing a harsh reality of conflict and aggression, possibly reflecting on the difficulties of life.
Now that we've made it this far on our own
Expressing resilience and self-reliance by stating that progress has been made independently.
Oh, in the violence now
Reiterating the theme of violence, emphasizing its pervasive nature in the speaker's experiences.
And it all stays the same
Indicating a sense of stagnation or lack of change despite enduring through challenges.
All gets wasted
Conveying a feeling of wasted efforts or resources in the face of persistent difficulties.
And it all stays the same
Repeating the notion of unchanging circumstances, suggesting a cycle of futility or repetition.
In the violence now
Reaffirming the presence of violence and its enduring impact on the speaker's life.
Wait, we've exhausted all direction
Expressing frustration or despair at having exhausted all possible directions or solutions.
There's nowhere to hide when you can't ease the soul, no
Highlighting the inability to find refuge or escape when the soul is troubled.
There's nobody to carry us now
Repeating the absence of external support or assistance, reinforcing the theme of isolation.
There's no one when we're out here alone
Reiterating the loneliness experienced when facing challenges without companionship.
It's all fighting and violence
Echoing the earlier reference to fighting and violence, underscoring the harsh realities of life.
Now that we've made it this far on our own
Emphasizing the accomplishment of reaching a certain point independently despite adversities.
Oh, in the violence now
Continuing to highlight the presence of violence and its impact on the speaker's existence.
And it all stays the same
Reiterating the idea that despite efforts, things remain unchanged and may feel wasted.
All gets wasted
Stressing the idea that efforts or experiences may lead to a sense of futility or loss.
And it all stays the same
Repeating the notion of a static or unchanging situation despite ongoing struggles.
In the violence now
Reaffirming the presence of violence and its ongoing impact on the speaker's life.
Oh, in the violence now
Reiterating the theme of violence, emphasizing its persistent and enduring nature.
And it all stays the same
Repeating the idea of a lack of change despite ongoing challenges, reinforcing stagnation.
All gets wasted
Expressing a sense of wasted efforts or experiences that do not lead to positive outcomes.
And it all stays the same
Reiterating the idea of a static and unchanging situation despite enduring difficulties.
In the violence now
Affirming the presence of violence in the speaker's current reality, concluding the lyrics.
