My Own Summer (Deftones Cover)

Euphorya's cover of 'My Own Summer (Deftones Cover)' brings a fresh yet haunting interpretation to the original song by Deftones. The lyrics delve into themes of isolation, disillusionment, and a yearning for escape. The repeated plea to 'shove the sun aside' suggests a desire to push away the harsh realities and pressures of life, seeking solace in the shade. This metaphorical use of the sun and shade highlights the struggle between facing the blinding truth and finding comfort in darkness.

The lines 'I think God is moving its tongue' and 'There's no crowds in the street' evoke a sense of divine indifference and societal emptiness. The absence of the sun in 'my own summer' symbolizes a personal void, a season that should be filled with warmth and light but is instead marked by a lack of vitality and connection. This stark imagery paints a picture of a world where the protagonist feels disconnected from both higher powers and the people around them.

Euphorya's rendition maintains the raw emotion and intensity of the original while adding their unique touch. The repetitive and almost chant-like 'shove it' underscores the frustration and desperation to escape an oppressive reality. The song's dark, brooding atmosphere is a testament to the band's ability to convey deep emotional turmoil through their music. This cover not only pays homage to Deftones but also stands as a powerful expression of Euphorya's own artistic vision.
