Seal Jubilee Lyrics

Cover art for Seal Jubilee lyrics by Bat for Lashes

I had the theory this was about the sea drying up, but now that I see it, yeah it is about humanity destroying nature.

I guess the inserts about the relationship are possibly the human effect- there was a time when our love had a meaning and purpose, a time when we both enjoyed it. But what is to become of it now when there is no future? Is it all in vain?

I get the feeling the last part is spoken from the view of someone who is dwelling on their thoughts after waking up in the middle of the night. Their partner is asleep so they only have themself at that moment and they think about all this...it changes them.
