Glass Beach Coelacanth Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The ghost rots away
In the embrace
Of its own gaze
In automatic cycles and habits
Paper the mirrors, closed eyes see clearer
Die cut my shadow into the drywall
Ego at half-mast, gas masks and hazmats
Chemical war
[Verse 2]
Children were singing
Animals bleating
Markets and town square
In dissonant fanfare
Laughs at the gallows
A truce in the trenches
Guards at the fences
Saying "all that you're seeking won't be found here"
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Goodbye, mayfly
Fly from still water
How long I have loved you
How long have I loved you?

[Chorus]
Goodbye, mayfly
Call it a bad dream
How long I have loved you
How long have I loved you?
[Bridge]
Skin to walk into
Warm blood to fill you
A heart with a glass door
All that you asked for
From family nexus to family nexus
Vox populi, vox dei
Held like a headwound
Violence will free you
Heart with a glass door
All that you asked for, coming to you
Glass Beach Coelacanth Lyrics Meaning
"Coelacanth" by Glass Beach explores the ephemeral nature of existence and the complexities of self-reflection. In the verses, the image of a ghost decaying in its own gaze suggests a profound introspection and the impact of habitual cycles. The use of metaphors like "closed eyes see clearer" and "chemical war" conveys themes of inner struggles and the masks people wear.
The second verse paints a chaotic scene with children singing, animals bleating, and dissonant fanfare in town squares. This imagery reflects the tumultuous nature of life and societal disarray. The guards at the fences symbolize barriers to finding what one seeks, echoing the message that true fulfillment may elude conventional paths.
