Boy Is Crying
Echoes of Sleepless Streets: A Boy's Cries
Lyrics
Boy is it coming to me
Expressing anticipation or awareness of something imminent
Lotta bodies I don't know
Referring to a large number of unfamiliar people around
Hoped I could get some sleepin'
Desiring to rest or sleep
Hope that they will go
Wishing for the people to leave for quiet and peace
That boy is crying
Describing a boy who is in a state of distress or sadness
Forget about the lying
Encouraging to ignore dishonesty or deceit
He's not singing
Stating that the boy is not vocalizing or expressing himself
Cause his ears are ringing
Suggesting that the boy is unable to sing due to a ringing sensation in his ears
I've gotta hit the sheets again
Expressing the need to go back to bed for a short period
Gotta catch an hour before I go
Having to rest for a brief time before leaving
Down to the streets beneath me
Referring to the surroundings below the speaker's residence
Out into the crowd below
Heading out into the public or crowd
Take me to the outer reaches
Desiring to be taken to distant or unconventional places
Rock me to and fro
Asking to be comforted or swayed gently
This boy is crying
Reiterating the boy's emotional state of crying
Fed up with the lying
Expressing frustration with deception or falsehood
I'm not singing
Not singing, possibly due to emotional distress
Cause my eyes are stinging
Indicating discomfort in the eyes, possibly from tears
Get me on a roll again
Expressing a desire to get back into a positive and active state
Look me in the eye and flash your smile
Requesting a direct and genuine interaction with a smile
Flash your smile
Repeating the request to flash a smile
