Wisdom Cries
Aurora Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Through diamond eyes
We go running
Way back in time
Through diamond eyes
We gotta go back to the start
Back 'til we are back home
We gotta go back to the start
Back 'til we are back home
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock tick
Where is the light
Are we meant to go down again?
We go down
Lightening strikes
Wisdom cries
It's an emergency, emergency
Conscious all night
No one's surprised
As long as we... emergency
Emergency, emergency
Wis-Wisdom cries
Wisdom cries
Wisdom cries
Wisdom cries
Wisdom cries
Wisdom cries
The lyrics of "Wisdom Cries" by Aurora seem to talk about the importance of wisdom and the need to return to it. The phrase "Way back in time, through diamond eyes" seems to suggest that the song is about going back to the ancient wisdom that was present at the beginning of time. The repetition of "We gotta go back to the start, back 'til we are back home" further emphasizes the need to return to the beginning—where we began to lose our wisdom.
The next part of the song is a bit more cryptic. The ticking of a clock suggests that time is running out, and the question "Where is the light?" suggests that there may be some sort of search or journey taking place. The line "Are we meant to go down again?" is interesting because it suggests that the journey might be a downward one. However, the lyrics don't provide any further explanation of what this journey might be.
The chorus of the song is the most powerful part. The phrase "Wisdom cries" is repeated over and over again, almost like a mantra. The line "Lightening strikes" could be interpreted as a metaphor for sudden realization or understanding. The urgency of "It's an emergency, emergency" suggests that wisdom is something that should not be ignored. Overall, the lyrics of "Wisdom Cries" seem to encourage listeners to seek out ancient wisdom and to appreciate its value.

1)
All of this lies in my minds eye
all of the lies are in flight
I look at the sky but it doesn't look back
I look to the ground to which I am bound
Everything all around is churning, all from the sky to the ground
I look around to find my way, but I'm lost
wish I could fly away.
Now I turn around and see many people, all speaking out from a script
Why can't I find, a single mind
free from this structure of madness
Words come from my mouth from my soul
Words drop from my bones like a scroll
I look around and try to find
A single soul who sees the lies
The sky moves, and so do I
Wish I could fly away so far
but Here I am today.
Everything I am is all locked within, can't find it outside me at all
I look all around and find what is not, everything looks just like shadows
Here I lie, I feel like a fly in a web
Stuck in a muck
What if I rust away?
All around, I see Atoms flying past my face
All about me people walk, people talk but no one sings
Why can't they see?
Words fly from my lips, screaming for life to touch
Ears they do reach, which take them in but their eyes do not see.
Day after day, I'm trapped in a cage
Stuck all alone in a Web
no matter how much I try, I can't learn to fly. Chaos swirling all around, masking itself as a crown
My Eyes can't take to see, this utter blasphemy. What a Mayhem to be.
The beauty of the sky, stretches far and wide
The glory of the Lights are dancing in the sky
why do I see you when no one else can?
Is it me who is crazy or is it the land?
And one day will I find the door, out from wonderland?
One day will I find myself, back where I can dance?
Here I am today, still looking for my way
And I'm so lost wish I had a bed to stay, perhaps oneday I will find the way
wake up from this silly play
dance about and sing all day
but for now I'm here today
And could it be true that one day I will be free?
The world around, it's all so wrong
I feel it through my skin
And when will I find a pair of eyes, in which I can dive in? Is everyone around me dead? are all of you just in my head? Will I wake up, safe in my bed? right where I belong
back home, where I long for
where I belong for
where I belong to be
2)
Here I lie my soul inside, trapped in a cage with eyes
Stuck in a world with such a sad story
Trapped in a place where I can't fly
Everything here to which I can't count
Why am I here?
Why aren't I found?
Why can't I fly?
Where is the Crown?
Why is my life, all the way bound
into a cage without a route?
Why can't I see, before my birth?
What was I then? What was life worth?
Why is the sky, so tightly held?
Why does my mind come to a stop, when I try to remember when this was not?
I can't explain this inside pain
You could not understand
because words are plain,
and they can't take and show you me; what I Am internally.
I know so far you are confused, as it always is.
I cannot show what doesn't grow, what has no start or end.
I guess all there is, is push on through
trust that life has a plan
But what if I choose a lie? What if I make a mess?
What if life, is more than I can right now clearly see?
What if I have truly fallen from my mother tree?
I'm falling down a steep steep hill, locked in gravity's grasp
I cry and scream for that warm love that is my mother's branch
But now I'm fallen from the tree, falling very fast
The bottom getting closer quickly
There I'll die and rot so swiftly
In the blink of an eye, I'll be in a well
Unable to move, or cry out for help
Here I am, in a strange world of lies
Do I truly belong here?
Is this where I die?
Everyone rushing past me, fast
like they have someplace to go
but there's nowhere to go
And why can't I find what I'm looking for, am I truly gone?
I don't even know what it is that I want
All of my mind is stuck in a line
all stretching out from a start
But what was I then, was I simply not?
My Mind cannot fathom that far.
Here I am, inside a body
Locked inside these Eyes
No one sees behind the lies that press so close against my thighs
I wish I could fly away.
Something is missing but I don't know what
Something is hidden my mind can't find
Here I am in a world without rhyme
Am I running out of time?
To earth I am bound, but by what I don't know
Surrounded by these big black shadows
What brought me here?
Can I get out?
Is there a way without a doubt?
Will I one day fly out of the trap of these bones and eyes?
Will I truly wake up and realize what a silly ply that was the lie that I would never wake?
But what if it is a mistake?
3) As the words leave my bones, I feel out of hope
As I look and you don't understand
All my words have fallen away from the current of sound
The meaningful message was struck to the Ground.
I try to touch you with my heart, but you won't reach back out
I try to teach you with my mind, but you can't understand
Words I speak are not of Nouns, not of persons or things
And what I speak of aren't from sounds, your heart must clearly see.
Don't you see what you are?
That you are you, your name is Me
Through eyes you see and ears you hear, through skin you touch and mind you think
Your tongue can taste, and nose does breath,
But YOU are what I speak.
You are what you are, that is called You
You to yourself is called Me.
And don't you see that what I speak of is you?
That You are the thing which You can't see?
Yourself is aware of all that's without
But aren't you aware of within?
Inside the mind, behind the eyes
The one who's reading this thing
Aren't you aware? Aren't you alive?
Isn't existence strange?
How are you here?
What is this place, around the one who simply is?
What were you once, before you came?
What was life then?
You are not me, for you are you.
Consciousness is such an odd thing
For I am I, and you reply;
I am as well a Me.
Yet you're not me, but assuming we see; there is no difference at all. The simple truth is that You are, everything else isn't fact. But if I am I and so are you, Why are there two? How is there Me and You? We are not one, I am Me, yet you say that you are too breathing. As a being who be's, and only one thing, which is it all at once,
how could it be it's not only me,
but also one else in a crust?
My words fall in Vain, I try to explain
but almost none understand.
They all try to take, what is, into make
something that is all around. The eyes cannot see behind the holes of surrounding, or into the mind.
So if you wish again to try;
let go of your minds eye...
my words come from the soul behind the mind.
And I do not speak of anything else, I do not speak of the land.
And if you understand, than are likely Illuminate inside the hands

"Wisdom Cries"
We go way back in time, time
Through diamond eyes

It's an emergency, emergency
Conscious all night
No one's surprised
As long as we...emergency

“Wisdom Cries” is reminiscent of the inability to think clearly when we are disoriented. Touching on ideas like insomnia and melancholy, the minor chords and minor chord progressions intend to cause stress in the listener. When listening to this song for the first time, imagine waking up after a bad dream and not sleeping well, only to awake to a fire alarm or siren.
@raonimm
Looks like a suicidal song
@desmondgh
Sir,would you talk more about the disoriention ?
@mateusmiranda4121
I actually feel things while listening to this. Not emotional. Physical things. Shivers on my bones. It's really strange.
