Empire State
Navigating Love's Journey: Empire State Song Insights
Lyrics
There's a storm on the rise
Anticipation of a challenging situation or difficult time ahead.
All the push and the pull of the summit is fading
The struggle and effort towards a goal are diminishing.
Here i am in disguise
Presenting a false appearance or identity.
Bruised to compare all the worries and waiting
Feeling battered and worn out from anxieties and waiting.
Try not to think twice
Encouragement to make decisions without hesitation.
The sun in my eyes leaves me blind to the shaking
The brightness of success blinds to potential problems.
Leave me here on this side
Expressing a desire to stay on the safe side.
Of this east coast highway
Referring to the geographical location of the journey.
And I'll find my way to New York
Confidence in finding a path to New York despite challenges.
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Repeated emphasis on the desire to return home through the waves.
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-There's a course in the tides
Acknowledging the natural course of events and seeking solace.
Begging for grace in Virginia's arms tonight
Yearning for mercy and comfort in Virginia's embrace.
Leading me like I'm blind
Feeling guided despite a lack of clarity.
Blue and despaired I'm missing her skies
Experiencing sadness and longing for familiar skies.
Tied up in a fight
Engaged in a personal struggle to open the heart for new opportunities.
Fixing to clear my heart for the taking
Prepared to overcome emotional obstacles for a chance at love.
Send me left to right
Directional shift towards resolution on the eastern bypass.
On this eastern bypass
Refers to the journey on the eastern bypass towards New York.
And I'll find my way to New York
Confidence in finding a path to New York despite challenges (repeated).
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Reiteration of the desire to return home through the waves.
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-There's a girl in New York
Introducing a significant person in New York awaiting the return.
Waiting for me to find what I'm chasing
Expectation for the singer to discover their purpose or goal.
Left her bags at the door
Symbols of commitment and readiness to stay despite obstacles.
It's a no through road
Reference to a challenging path with an uncertain outcome.
But I'll find my way back north
Commitment to finding a way back to the intended destination.
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
Reiteration of the desire to return home through the waves.
Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
-Get me on the waves sail me right back home
