London Stock
Echoes of Urban Desires: Harvey Causon's London Stock Revelations
Lyrics
We understand our situations while they're concrete
We comprehend our circumstances while they are tangible.
What if they melted into liquid in this blistering heat
Consider the possibility of them transforming into a fluid state during intense heat.
We understand our set locations as they're conceived
We understand our predetermined positions as they are conceived.
What if they dispersed in the ether when we couldn't see
Imagine if these positions scattered into the ethereal realm when not visible.
In the entropy
In the state of disorder or chaos.
Yellow London Stock
Referring to the Yellow London Stock.
Through the brickwork superposition is lost
Loss of superposition through brickwork, indicating a disruption or change.
Yellow London Stock
Reiteration of the Yellow London Stock theme.
Through the brickwork we move our way through the dark
Navigating through darkness within the brickwork.
We deciduously be
We exist with a deciduous nature, implying a seasonal shedding or change.
Seasonally feed cycles kept in routines
Engaging in cyclical patterns and routines that define our lives.
Atrophy get's my feet drawn short can't breathe
Physical deterioration, feeling restricted and breathless.
Tides coming in at speed high peaks knees deep
A metaphor for challenging times, with the tide representing difficulties.
I know I'm hung up on my tether
Feeling constrained or restricted by a connection or obligation.
Sonically stressed need to fester less
Suffering from stress, aspiring to reduce the intensity of festering emotions.
Yellow London Stock
Repetition of the Yellow London Stock theme.
Through the brickwork superposition is lost
Loss of superposition through brickwork persists.
Yellow London Stock
Reiteration of the Yellow London Stock theme.
Through the brickwork we move our way through the dark
Continuing to navigate through darkness within the brickwork.
You could be my painter
Symbolic reference to someone who could bring color and meaning to life.
We could be creators
Possibility of joint creation and innovation.
We could build our outside
The potential to construct an external positive reality.
Cancel out the dark sides
Overcoming negative aspects or challenges.
You could be my painter
Reiteration of the idea of someone being a positive influence as a painter.
We could be creators
Emphasizing the potential for joint creativity and positive change.
They don't have to answer
Recognition that not everyone has all the answers.
They don't have the answers
A repetition of the acknowledgment that answers may not be readily available.
