Michelangelo
Discovering Michelangelo's Hidden Canvas in Life's Symphony
Lyrics
Will there be time to find a face
Contemplating if there will be time to discover a genuine expression or identity.
To show the passers in the street
Wanting to display this discovered identity to people passing by on the street.
A glance to catch the washed out eyes
A desire to capture the tired or worn-out eyes of those encountered.
Of those that I meet
Referencing the individuals met along the way.
The roll of stones and thunder
Describing the rolling of stones and thunder, creating a vivid atmosphere.
Echoes around the keep
The echoes of stones and thunder reverberate around a fortress or stronghold.
But it's muffled to the ones
Despite the noise, it's muffled to those who choose to remain oblivious or apathetic.
The ones who choose to sleep
Referring to those who opt to sleep metaphorically or figuratively.
And before we turn to go
Anticipating a departure and pretending to have knowledge or understanding.
We'll pretend that we know about Michelangelo
A reference to Michelangelo, suggesting a deeper meaning or insight.
We whisper some distant broken rhyme
Whispering a distant and broken rhyme, possibly symbolizing elusive understanding.
That clings to a fading melody
Describing a fading melody that clings to the whispered rhyme.
While the sails fill with a wind that won't propel
The sails are filled with wind but don't propel, hinting at unfulfilled potential.
A sound splits through our harmony
A disruptive sound breaks through the harmonious atmosphere.
And before we turn to go
Repeating the theme of departing and pretending to know about Michelangelo.
And before we turn to go
Reiterating the anticipation of departure with a reference to Michelangelo.
We'll pretend that we know about Michelangelo
Continuing the pretense of understanding Michelangelo before leaving.
And before we turn to go
Again emphasizing the moment of departure.
Through the threads of a winter glow
Through the threads of a winter glow, possibly alluding to a delicate or challenging situation.
Will you ever let it show
Pondering whether one will reveal their true self in this difficult situation.
You don't know a thing about Michelangelo
Highlighting the lack of knowledge about Michelangelo, suggesting a metaphorical depth.
