As an integral part of any song, lyrics act a way for artists to divulge their thoughts with listeners, but with so many songs out there, how can you be sure to hear all of these messages?
To grasp these hidden meanings, we have asked Definitely Barneyto showcase some of their favourite, original lyrics and are pleased to feature them as part of our Waxing Lyrical series.
Today’s Waxing Lyrical With Definitely Barney dives into the lyrics of their song ‘Cave’.
Definitely Barney is an independent musician from London who makes badass riffs and catchy hooks all from his bedroom! If you want to blow the roof off, unite over live music and have some fun together to a musician who unfortunately shares a name with a dinosaur, despite being a rock n roller through and through, then he’s the artist for you.
Cave is about having someone be like a vice, this addictive idea you can’t get rid of. Something you just love a little bit too much. It’s a person becoming an addiction and me caving to that feeling
‘I’ve been hurting For years
Wipe your face save those tears
I’ve got you in my blood
And I act like my mouth’s shut
I can see holy ghosts
As they all crush my hopes
You always do what I don’t
I love you just to help me cope
I know you’re my sanctity
I hope that you are meant for me
I owe the world an apology
Always Waiting on that sweet release
Cave
I want things to change
Cave
Wont like what I have to say
Cave
You Don’t know who I became
Cave
All you ever cause is pain
You’re in paradise
No love left in those eyes
Waiting for the landslide
To see what I truly look like
I feel my thoughts turning Grey
As my life slowly slips Away
Wanting your warm embrace
But everything burns away
I know you’re my sanctity
I hope that you are meant for me
I owe the world an apology
Always Waiting on that sweet release
Cave
I want things to change
Cave
Wont like what I have to say
Cave
You Don’t know who I became
Cave
All you ever cause is pain’
