Airwaves
Echoes of Lost Heartbreak: Navigating the Airwaves of Change
Lyrics
Did we forget
Questioning if there has been a collective oversight or neglect.
To listen
Reflecting on the act of paying attention or being receptive.
The last generation raised on FM
Referring to the previous generation that grew up with FM radio.
Lost track of time
Expressing a sense of losing awareness of time.
Lost the sound
Indicating a loss of the essence or quality of sound.
We traded all our thens for the now
Describing a trade-off, sacrificing past experiences for the present.
These days we're half awake
Describing a state of partial wakefulness in contemporary times.
Waiting for lights to come on
Waiting for a moment of clarity or understanding.
Where's all that heartbreak headed
Pondering the direction of collective emotional pain.
I used to hear it in the airwaves
Nostalgically recalling a time when emotional expression was heard in the medium of airwaves (radio).
Now a home is all gone
Expressing the loss of a familiar place that has transformed into a different path.
It just turned into the road that we're on
Highlighting the transformation of a home into a journey.
But each place
Observing the uniformity of experiences in different places.
Sounds the same
Noting the similarity in the essence of different locations.
A different station only in name
Comparing different radio stations with similar content despite different names.
These days we're half awake
Reiterating a state of partial wakefulness in contemporary times.
Waiting for lights to come on
Repeating the anticipation of a moment of clarity or understanding.
Where's all the heartbreak headed
Repeating the question about the direction of collective emotional pain.
I used to hear it in the airwaves
Recalling a time when emotional expression was heard in the medium of airwaves (radio).
