The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Black Water" by the artist "Timber Timbre"

Contents

The song "Black Water" by Timber Timbre tells the story of a person torn between light and darkness, between a yearning for the sun and a pull towards a dark abyss.

The recurring phrase "All I need is sunlight" expresses a desperate desire for purity, hope, and salvation. It is the voice of the protagonist's reason, who recognizes the danger of his situation and seeks salvation.

However, the hero is simultaneously fascinated by the darkness symbolized by the "spirit" that dwells in the lake. This spirit possibly embodies the suppressed desires, fears, and vices that attract the hero. The imagery of sirens, caves, funeral boats, and dead fish creates an oppressive atmosphere of mystical mystery and impending doom.

As the story unfolds, the hero sinks deeper into the abyss of darkness. He goes through suffering ("barefoot you fell into the thicket"), violence ("beaten, glazed-eyed, torn"), and death ("a thousand fish swim belly up"). Eventually, he finds "compassion" and "salvation" in the very heart of darkness, embracing his dark nature.

The final repetition of "Black water" and the plea "call me down" indicate the hero's complete surrender to the forces of darkness. He no longer fights the attraction but, on the contrary, longs to dissolve in the black water, which becomes for him a symbol of both liberation and death.

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

The siren called beyond the treeline

With another one for the caves

And in the tarn beyond those birches

There's a spirit that I crave

And from the island, people watched you

You set that viking ship ablaze

We reached the moon, fall's icy cauldron

And found the spirit that I crave

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

You've fallen barefoot past the treeline

Beaten, bone-eyed, butchered, swayed

A thousand whitefish floating belly up

In the spirit that I crave

And we threw ourselves right into it

Where lay the bodies had been claimed

We dove a third out of the fifth

Banned to the spirit that I crave

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

I found empathy from madness

Deliverance from malaise

My heart is is filled with gladness

At the only spirit that I crave

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

All I need is some sunshine

All I need

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black water, black water (Call me down, black water call me down)

Black (Call me down, black water call me down)

(Call me down, black water call me down)

(Call me down, black water call me down)

(Call me down, black water call me down)
