Buildings

Resilience Amidst Concrete: Unveiling Depths in Katatonia's 'Buildings'
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Think

Reflecting on past experiences

Of the days when I had too much

Reminiscing about a time of excess

Of the things we found

Recalling shared experiences or discoveries

Resistance died down

Resistance or opposition faded away

Fell on frozen soil

Fell onto an unyielding and cold environment


Bleed a little for a different day

Expressing willingness to sacrifice for a better future

Going deeper to come away

Delving deeper into challenges to emerge transformed


On the concrete sky

Observing a skyline made of concrete structures

I saw the buildings rise

Witnessing the construction of buildings

But keep our lights in shadow still

Despite progress, keeping certain aspects hidden or in darkness

In the wind's eye

In the face of adversity or challenges

Where our reflection dies

Reflecting on the loss of self or identity

Glass shrines of muted will

Buildings as symbols of restrained desires or aspirations


Dead

Describing a sense of lifelessness or stagnation

Is the time that I see from here on out

Recognizing a definitive end to a particular phase of life

This burial ground

Referring to a place associated with laying things to rest

One more down

Acknowledging another loss or setback

And buildings recoil

Buildings exhibiting a reaction or withdrawal
