Seven
Navigating Despair: Red City Format's Poignant Reflections in 'Seven'
Lyrics
What are you thinking now
Questioning the current thoughts or feelings of the listener.
I don't get why it's all falling down
Expressing confusion about the collapse of something.
Are you lonely just tonight
Asking if the listener feels lonely in the present moment.
It ain't hard to say
Stating that expressing one's feelings isn't difficult.
That I don't forgive or forget anything now
Affirming an unwillingness to forgive or forget past events.
But I will be brave
Committing to bravery despite challenges.
Through all the traffic in the air
Referencing challenges or obstacles in life.
For all a past within despair
Reflecting on a difficult past.
This time with ease we'll mend
Expressing confidence in overcoming difficulties easily.
So remind me when it ends
Seeking a reminder of when a challenging situation concludes.
What makes us want to live
Questioning the motivation to live.
If all good is gone with all the rest
Suggesting the loss of all that is good.
Were you lonely just one night
Revisiting the theme of loneliness in the past.
And I feel the rain
Sensing rain and its cleansing effect.
As it washes all the dust and soil
Symbolizing renewal through the washing away of dirt.
Above your broken grave
Imagining a broken grave and the emotions it evokes.
Through all the traffic in the air
Reiterating challenges or obstacles in life.
For all a past within despair
Recalling a difficult past.
This time with ease we'll mend
Reaffirming confidence in overcoming difficulties easily.
So remind me when it ends
Requesting a reminder of the conclusion of a challenging time.
Why, how slowly we have grown
Reflecting on the slow process of personal growth.
Oh darling don't tell me that I am alone, oh no
Rejecting the idea of being alone and seeking reassurance.
Death is calling me
Acknowledging the presence of death and its call.
How should I answer
Contemplating how to respond to the inevitability of death.
And if time won't sleep we'll know
Speculating on the persistence of time despite challenges.
Death is calling me
Reiterating the presence of death and its call.
How should I answer
Repeating the contemplation of how to respond to death.
When you wake please take me home
Asking to be taken home upon awakening.
I hate to pretend
Expressing dislike for pretending.
Cause you know that I'd do anything
Affirming a willingness to do anything for someone.
Just to make you breathe again
Expressing a desire to restore someone's ability to breathe.
But it makes me stay
Acknowledging the difficulty of leaving a challenging situation.
Cause I'd never subject anyone that I love
Committing to avoiding causing pain to loved ones.
To so much pain
Rejecting the idea of subjecting loved ones to significant pain.
Through all the traffic in the air
Reiterating challenges or obstacles in life.
For all a past within despair
Recalling a difficult past.
This time with ease we'll mend
Reaffirming confidence in overcoming difficulties easily.
So remind me when it ends
Requesting a reminder of the conclusion of a challenging time.
