Sleepless Nights and City Lights
Eternal Echoes: Love Amidst Sleepless Nights and City Lights
Lyrics
While you've been dreaming of the dead and lost.
Reflecting on dreams about the deceased and lost.
I have been awake kissing these clock faces
Expressing being awake, possibly in contrast to dreaming.
The fear of sleep has left me tired and worn.
Feeling exhausted due to the fear of sleep.
But in her dreams is where I will haunt her
Planning to linger in the dreams of someone significant.
I've seen the shadow of this burning angel.
Referring to a compelling, perhaps destructive force represented by a burning angel.
These city lights will never be as beautiful as your eyes
Comparing the beauty of city lights to the eyes of a beloved person.
I'll pick up the pieces when you've failed and fallen to the ground.
Commitment to support and mend when the other person faces challenges.
Let my words set and fall upon your unwilling ears,
Wishing for words to reach and comfort despite resistance.
It will be ok.
Providing assurance that everything will be okay.
I took to the sky, did you mourn for me?
Questioning if the person mourned when the speaker took significant action.
Well who needs flowers when they're dead and buried
Challenging the conventional gesture of giving flowers to the dead.
For now my whisper is my dearest friend.
Finding solace in one's own whispered thoughts.
But even I no it won't last forever
Acknowledging that even comforting whispers won't last forever.
I've seen the shadow of this burning angel.
Reiteration of the presence of a powerful, potentially destructive force.
These city lights will never be as beautiful as your eyes.
Reaffirming that city lights can't match the beauty of the beloved's eyes.
Ill pick up the pieces when you've failed and fallen to the ground.
Pledging to help when the beloved stumbles and falls.
Let my words set and fall upon your unwilling ears, it will be ok.
Insisting that comforting words will be accepted and everything will be okay.
smile when you think of me, the pain will go in time.
Encouraging a smile, suggesting that time will ease the pain.
I may be alone with fear in my mind. I leave these words in hope that...
Admitting loneliness and fear, expressing hope for a future reunion.
That we'll meet again, again...now?
Expressing uncertainty about the timing of a potential future meeting.
I know this won't last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of the current situation.
