Concrete Sky
Embracing Concrete Dreams: A Soul's Journey in the Luke Andrews Band's 'Concrete Sky'
Lyrics
Feeling cold, the day is old
Expressing a sense of emotional coldness as the day progresses.
I'm staring at a concrete sky
Contemplating a seemingly unyielding and harsh reality, represented by a concrete sky.
I just can't sleep in the deep
Struggling to find peace or rest in the depth of overwhelming thoughts.
Of a thousand thoughts
Feeling burdened by a multitude of thoughts that occupy the mind.
Here and there, unaware
Being in different places mentally, possibly not fully present in the current moment.
I think I see some concrete stars
Perceiving something beautiful (concrete stars) even in a challenging environment.
But tonight I'm in a fight
Engaged in a personal struggle, perhaps with aspirations or inner conflicts.
With my own dreams
Facing challenges and conflicts related to personal aspirations and dreams.
Then I look at you
Turning attention to someone else, possibly a source of tranquility or inspiration.
Quiet and peaceful
Describing the calm and serene nature of the person being observed.
Every single day
Highlighting the consistency of the observed person's demeanor every day.
And I wish for once
Expressing a desire for the ease of falling asleep, mirroring the observed person.
That I could fall asleep
Yearning for the simplicity of falling asleep without inner struggles.
As easy as you
Comparing one's own difficulty in sleeping to the ease of the observed person.
I've got dreams, but as it seems
Having dreams but feeling constrained by barriers or obstacles represented by concrete walls.
Held behind some concrete walls
Highlighting the confinement of dreams behind barriers.
Give it time and it'll be fine
Optimistically suggesting that with time, challenges will be overcome and things will improve.
I tell myself
Self-assurance that with patience, everything will eventually be fine.
I regret that I forget
Expressing regret for forgetting to live in the present and let go of concerns.
To just let go in the here and now
Advising oneself to embrace the present moment and release anxieties about the future.
The future me won't let me see
Acknowledging that future anxieties prevent a clear understanding of one's current blessings.
Just what I've got
Realizing the importance of appreciating what one currently possesses.
Then I look at you
Returning attention to the calming presence of the observed person.
Quiet and peaceful
Reiterating the peaceful nature of the observed person's daily existence.
Every single day
Emphasizing the consistency of the observed person's peaceful demeanor.
And I wish for once
Expressing the ongoing desire to experience the ease of falling asleep like the observed person.
That I could fall asleep
Reiterating the aspiration to easily fall asleep, contrasting with personal struggles.
As easy as you
Repetition for emphasis, highlighting the contrast between personal difficulty and the observed person's ease.
As easy as you
Repeating the desire for the simplicity of falling asleep like the observed person.
As easy as you
Emphasizing the repeated wish for the observed person's ease in falling asleep.
After all these thoughts
Reflecting on persistent thoughts, doubts, and uncertainties.
And after all these doubts
Acknowledging and confronting personal doubts and uncertainties.
After all my hopes and dreams
Reviewing past aspirations and dreams, possibly recognizing their evolution.
I look at you
Redirecting attention to the calming and reassuring presence of the observed person.
And then I realize
Realizing that time is a crucial factor in overcoming challenges and uncertainties.
All I need is time
Acceptance that patience and time are necessary for personal growth and resolution.
And it's alright
Expressing reassurance that everything will be fine despite the difficulty in falling asleep.
That I can't fall asleep
Acknowledging the difficulty in falling asleep, but finding comfort in the realization that it's acceptable.
As easy as you
Reiteration of the desire to effortlessly fall asleep, emphasizing the contrast with the observed person.
