🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation

The lyrics imagine love as an immense ocean whose waves can overwhelm, disorient, and pull someone into unfamiliar depths. Rather than escaping its uncertainty, the narrator chooses to keep swimming toward the person they love, accepting even the darkness and turbulence as part of that feeling. No matter how far apart they drift, love repeatedly carries them back together, becoming both something that can swallow them and something that saves them. Through every unanswered question and breathless struggle, the narrator embraces love’s uncertainty and continues diving deeper, discovering a vivid sense of life within its endless motion.
