About This Place
Adriana Proenza Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don′t know what i'm doing
I think my life′s gone to waste
I can't stop taking drugs
And feeling sad about this place
My friends all in the north coast
Worst part's that i havent′s faced
That now i′m all alone
And i cannot escape
What will i do?
When the sun goes down
When the flowers are grown
When the winter is gone
What will i do?
When i see you again
When i don't have tears left
When i have your eyes in front of mine
I′m overwhelmed with the pain
I might not see you again
Everybody wants the key to happiness

I don't know what i′m doing
I think my life's gone to waste
I can′t stop taking drugs
And feeling sad about this place
My friends all in the north coast
Worst part's that i havent's faced
That now i′m all alone
And i cannot escape
What will i do?
When the sun goes down
When the flowers are grown
When the winter is gone
What will i do?
When i see you again
When i don′t have tears left
When i have your eyes in front of mine
I'm overwhelmed with the pain




I might not see you again
Everybody wants the key to happiness

The lyrics convey her struggles with drug addiction and her feelings of sadness about the place where she currently resides.

A young boy feeling quite sad and was being in the darkest room. As he try to look for a nice video,he stumble upon a song,a soft song that make him... Feeling happy and a song that change his feeling.. A soft song for a sad moment make him feel like singing in the forest of falling spring. It make him dance in his mind. It has been a pleasure listening to a good song. Well keep going and put some smile on people wishing them with a dance in a peaceful place.

Da Greatest Da Greatest I wasn’t saying life is peaceful or free of death and suffering, I was just saying the comment was really nice to read cause for a second it seems like you don’t have all that weighing on your shoulders. I wasn’t implying that bad things don’t exist, in fact they very much do but sometimes it’s nice to just relax for a second especially when you’re in such a position that you really can’t help them much but still worry a lot

@Kiersten McComas sorry but most people's lives aren't very innocent and peaceful, we also have kids dying every 10 minutes in Yemen just to top it off with the Kurdistani genocide
