Strawberry Kissdown
Astrobrite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This sound around
So breathe don't feel my heart around
I don't feel these eyes
Awake so deep
Can't feel sometimes
My mind don't try
Don't breathe this sound around so stay
The lyrics in Astrobrite's song "Strawberry Kissdown" seem to evoke feelings of disconnection, isolation and maybe even a sense of being lost in one's own thoughts. The first line, "Don't try to breathe," could be interpreted as a command or a plea to the listener to stop trying to make sense of things and just go with the flow. The next line, "This sound around," speaks to the idea of being surrounded by something that is beyond our control or comprehension. Then, the lyricist suggests that it's better to just focus on one's own breathing and tuning out the noise around them if they want to find peace.
The lines "I don't feel these eyes, awake so deep, can't feel sometimes, my mind don't try," seem to suggest that the singer is struggling with a kind of emotional or existential numbness - they don't feel "these eyes" (perhaps someone else's gaze or scrutiny), and their mind is unable to fully engage with reality at times. The overall message of the song, then, could be seen as a call to embrace a kind of sensory deprivation in order to find a deeper connection with oneself.
Line by Line Meaning
Don't try to breathe
Ignore the urge to take in air
This sound around
The music is present in the surroundings
So breathe don't feel my heart around
Inhale without sensing my heartbeat
I don't feel these eyes
I am unaware of these gaze
Awake so deep
I am in a profound state of consciousness
Can't feel sometimes
Occasionally, I am unable to feel
My mind don't try
I don't attempt to concentrate my thoughts
Don't breathe this sound around so stay
Don't inhale the music and remain in this state
Can't feel my heart around
I am unable to sense my own heartbeat
