Astronomy
ADAM STRANGLER Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Slowly dripping from the edges of your face.
Someone’s getting all the fun.
All the lovers come to play
In my room when I am sleeping.
My redemption is not certain but I’m gonna pretend just this once.
Someone’s getting all the fun.
You won’t stop beating yourself
Tears run down from your face.
You’re gonna get what you want.
I’m not the kind of man to…
Someone’s getting all the fun.
You’ve been working hard, before you came home
I was pouring it all into a song.
It’s only love, but you don’t care at all
Let me love you with all that I’ve got.
I’ve been looking good before you were born
Making every hour, and every song.
I need love, I don’t care at all
I’ll let you love me with all that you’ve got.
In ADAM STRANGLER's song Astronomy, the lyrics describe a sense of disillusionment and unfulfillment in life. The opening line “Your brain is melting everyday, slowly dripping from the edges of your face” paints a picture of a person feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope with the pressures of everyday life. This feeling is contrasted with the idea that “Someone’s getting all the fun,” implying that while the individual is struggling, others are thriving.
The lyrics further explore this idea of missed opportunities and unfulfilled desires, with lines such as “All the lovers come to play, in my room when I am sleeping,” suggesting that while the singer is alone and isolated, others are able to find happiness and companionship. However, despite this sense of despair, the song also offers a glimmer of hope. The lines “My redemption is not certain but I'm gonna pretend just this once” suggest that even in the face of uncertainty and doubt, it is still possible to hold onto a sense of optimism and possibility.
Overall, Astronomy is a complex and introspective song, exploring themes of isolation, self-doubt, and the desire for connection and meaning in life.
