Antonio Ciccarone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sun doesn't always shine
It's alright to fall apart sometimes, mmm
I am not always you
And you are not always mine
It's alright to fall apart sometimes
After all is said and doneOne and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
The heart isn't always true
And I am not always fine
We all have an angry heart sometimes
After all is said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)
I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
Let's stand still in time
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
That runs through our lives
After all is said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is one ah
Ooh
Antonio Ciccarone's song "512" is a reflective piece on the ups and downs of human relationships. The opening line, "The sky isn't always blue, the sun doesn't always shine," is a recognition that life is full of uncertainty and we cannot always control our surroundings. Similarly, the line "I am not always you, and you are not always mine" is a reminder that as individuals we have our own struggles, challenges and perspectives that make us different from others. It is okay to fall apart and feel vulnerable from time to time. The chorus ties it all together with the sentiment that despite these differences, when we come together and share our experiences, we become one. We are connected by a single thread that runs through our lives, and that connection is what makes us whole.
The song's title "512" is the area code for Austin, Texas - a place where Antonio Ciccarone has spent a lot of time. The lyrics and overall message of the song seem to be influenced by the idea of community and coming together in a city that has a diverse set of people from different backgrounds. The song is a testament to the power of unity and shared experiences, which is something that resonates with people all over the world.
