City Sadness
City Sadness Unveiled: A Poetic Journey Through Urban Struggles
Lyrics
Beauty is a loaded gun
Beauty is enticing but potentially dangerous, like a loaded weapon.
If you hold in your hand you wanna use it on someone
The desire to use this enticing beauty on someone, metaphorically suggesting causing harm.
And this town is a firing range
The town is a place where emotions and desires can be volatile, likened to a firing range.
Where lovers hide their trigger happy smiles
In this environment, people conceal their true feelings behind smiles.
Safety is just a lie
The feeling of safety is false, comparable to an illusion.
It's like jumping off the yacht
A risky situation akin to jumping off a yacht with no means to climb back aboard.
With the ladder still inside
Despite the danger, there's no escape from the imminent threat.
And the sharks are gonna come
The unavoidable arrival of problems or dangers.
It's a fact you have to learn to live with my dear
Acceptance of harsh realities as an essential part of life.
We borrowed too much of tomorrow's happiness
Living today with the consequences of borrowing happiness from the future.
I've got the city sadness
Repetition emphasizes the overwhelming feeling of sadness within the city.
The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-Running at pistol point
Feeling pressured or threatened, as if facing a loaded gun.
I am talking to a stranger
Engaging in conversations that feel dangerous or uncomfortable.
When Iʼm talking to myself
Internal dialogue or self-reflection amid challenging circumstances.
I still love you but the world has turned The line of fire's clear for me to shoot
Despite love, circumstances make it clear that taking action might lead to harm.
You're a magnet on a leash
Being irresistibly drawn towards something, despite potential danger.
What's so funny about the ground that you will not stop looking down
Ignoring potential risks or threats by focusing on trivial matters.
I mean maybe it's time to leave
Considering leaving due to feeling disconnected or dissatisfied.
There are way too many people anyway
Feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of people around.
Indifference is just another symptom here
Apathy being just one of the many issues prevalent in this environment.
I've got the city sadness
Reiteration of the overwhelming feeling of sadness within the city.
The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-There was a time when it all was radiating
There was a time when everything seemed bright and promising.
Another world wherever we would turn
The world used to offer hope and positivity everywhere.
But now that we used our ammunition
Having depleted resources or options, resulting in a monotonous existence.
This place is just a treadmill in the night
The current situation feels like going nowhere despite efforts.
I've got the city sadness
Repetition underscores the overwhelming feeling of sadness within the city.
The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
-The city sadness
-I've got the city sadness
