The haunting narrative explores the complex emotions surrounding abortion and the psychological aftermath of such a decision. Through metaphorical imagery of sea creatures and marine themes, the lyrics delve into the perspective of both the terminated pregnancy and the mother wrestling with her choice. The song touches on various aspects of this difficult subject: the genetic connection to an absent father, the mother's emotional detachment as a coping mechanism, and the persistent memories that refuse to fade. The recurring motif of "finding another womb to grow" suggests the cyclical nature of life and death, while also hinting at the possibility of future chances at life. The underwater imagery effectively conveys feelings of loss, guilt, and the weightless limbo between existence and non-existence. It's a poignant exploration of a deeply personal and often silenced experience.
