кладбище спасательных кругов (Lifebuoy cemetery) Lyrics Meaning

[Интро]
The intro expresses a sense of resignation. The singer doesn’t question God, even if He is close, implying a feeling of surrender or hopelessness in seeking help or understanding.

[Куплет 1]
In the first verse, the singer addresses someone, suggesting they should prepare a response because their help is worthless. Despite acknowledging their status as a “top-tier” individual, they express a refusal to give without expecting something in return. They feel that every gesture they make is one of support, yet they see no reciprocation. The singer is jaded, stating they don’t trust anyone anymore because they’ve felt abandoned among people. They allude to a metaphorical space where things could be the opposite of what they seem and imply that even those who should help don’t truly care. The mention of not believing in even a trap meant for mice showcases their deep skepticism. The singer feels like they need saving themselves and recognizes their physical decay, feeling that they’ve lost their identity. The overarching theme is a realization that even the savior needs saving, emphasizing the cycle of loneliness and disappointment.

[Припев]
In the chorus, the singer cries out for someone to stop them as they spiral downward, oblivious to their surroundings. They reflect on their desire to hurt those who didn’t help them, feeling overwhelmed by the weight of their circumstances. The “cemetery of lifebuoys” symbolizes their self-created isolation, suggesting they built these barriers around themselves without realizing that life can’t be navigated alone. They acknowledge that they don’t truly need anyone or anything, trapped in this metaphorical cemetery of lifebuoys they’ve constructed.

[Постприпев]
The post-chorus emphasizes that the depths of their struggles won’t let them go, and they won’t let others in either. If someone wants to engage with these depths, they can, but the singer implies that they are just floating on the surface. They express a carefree attitude but acknowledge that if sadness finally overcomes them, it will be evident that they’ve deflated like a lifebuoy losing air.

[Куплет 2]
In the second verse, the singer reflects on their world, which doesn’t allow for lies. They seem to reject superficiality, critiquing the modern obsession with social media. They wish for peace for those who have joined them on this journey, yet they recognize how the constructs of their minds have crumbled. They suggest that humanity, in its quest for faith and connection, has created its own God, but they see the irony in how people worship this created figure. The singer expresses a desire to escape to a place where they can’t be found by this imagined God. They emphasize the vulnerability of their perspective, suggesting that their critiques make the idea of God even weaker or more flawed.

[Припев]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the singer’s plea for an end to their spiral. They again express feelings of being alone in this cemetery of lifebuoys, recognizing their self-imposed isolation while asserting that life can’t be navigated alone.

[Постприпев]
In the final post-chorus, the singer reiterates that they’re trapped in their own depth, unwilling to let anyone else in. They continue to play on the surface, but there’s a hint of acceptance that if sadness ultimately wins, it will mark their defeat, like a deflated lifebuoy.
