Sweet Escape: Diving into Urban Dreams with 'Shortcake' by Drexel
Lyrics
Swim on by
Expressing a suggestion or invitation to move forward.
Swim on down the street
Continuing the theme of movement, suggesting a journey down the street.
We could try
Suggesting the possibility of attempting something.
Make a life worth the feat
Expressing the desire to create a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Angels stay up above
Referring to celestial beings who remain distant and uninvolved.
Won't be bothered with us underground
Highlighting a contrast between heavenly beings and the underground world.
See now lately I've been feeling
