Cover art for Creation Lake lyrics by Silversun Pickups

This song seems to be a dream of a time before creation, before life. Everything was but water, even these two beings. They shared their lives within the lake. Then, when the time came to form life, these two beings had to go their separate ways. They had to gather courage to leave Creation Lake in order to go where life lives.

Now that these beings have become living, they miss each other, and the simplicity of living together in the lake as one. It is realized that twenty-four hours in a day divide them, and that they will never be together again. There is sorrow, but acceptance, as they have both moved on to greater things.

Finally, he or she has been awakened from the dream by her mother's sweet voice, and is brought back to reality, with a thoughtful remembrance of the dream.

My Interpretation

That is a fucking beautiful interpretation, and I have taken it and ran with it. I love your imagination. :)
