All At Sea Lyrics

I know, I don't know you
But don't think I don't know you
I saw you going under
Saved one for me

'Cause I'm all at sea and I don't know if I'm coming or going
There's no thorn, no stalk
There's no poison talk that belongs to me

And I only wanna
Well, I just wanna
Oh, I don't want anything, it means to the world to me

Well, I'm all at sea and I don't know if I'm coming or going
There's no hope, there's no fear
No rent arrears, leave it all to me

If you take it all away
You've got a pile of everything you never even wanted
That's just too bad
You never wanted it so bad

Oh, tell me, where can I go?
To hear the songs I need
I used to go to your room
Open up and bleed
So tell me, where can I go?
To hear the songs I need
You find me in your room
Open up and bleed

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh

She sells seashells on the seashore
And he sells e-shells on the dance floor, and
And your mum sells rocks from a telephone box

Don't know if I'm coming or going

What is the Meaning of All At Sea?

In this introspective lyrical exploration, the artist grapples with feelings of uncertainty and existential drift 🌊. The metaphor of being "all at sea" captures a state of disorientation where the narrator is uncertain about his direction in life. These sentiments echo a reluctance to confront desires and fears, as articulated in the lines about lacking hope, fear, or even material concerns like rent arrears. The song poses a poignant reflection on how one's accumulated possessions and unwanted burdens weigh heavily on the psyche, underscoring the futility of material gain. In the latter verses, a nostalgic yearning for music as a form of emotional catharsis is expressed, capturing a desperate search for solace and connection. Subtle references to a bygone intimacy and self-expression deepen the emotional complexity of this evocative piece. #ExistentialDrift #EmotionalCatharsis
