WE ARE EMOTIONAL
C.N.Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Back on the train
to find me another one
Charcoal and steam
and you on my mind
You see I find you in places
like sunsets and melodies
I'm cold when it storms in my summer fire
But if breathing's harder
As we get farther
Forecast weather nearby
But if waiting's torture
I'll take another one
For you I'll take another one
You're still on my mind
I'm halfway asleep

I feel you right next to me
The sound of your heartbeat
what keeps me awake
Oh baby just as you are
God, you're a sight to see
And every part of me
is wanting you more

But if breathing's harder
As we get farther
Forecast weather nearby
But if waiting's torture
I'll take another one
For you I'll take another one
You're still on my mind

I love all that we are
I love all that we are
I love all that we are
All that we are
All we are
I love all we are
I love all that we are
All that we are

But if breathing's harder
As we get farther
Forecast weather nearby
But if waiting's torture
Take another one
Ooh, for you I'll take another one
Eh, you're still on my mind

I love all that we are
I love all that we are




All that we are
All that we are

Overall Meaning

The song "We Are Emotional" by C.N.Blue talks about the desire to escape the monotony of life and the pressure to conform to society's expectations. The first stanza sets the scene of a group of friends who spend endless nights discussing different topics and dreaming of a life beyond their current situation. However, even though they all aspire for something more, the singer's friend criticizes his inability to understand how they can make such dreams come true. This verse highlights the difficult balance between ambition and practicality, which is a prevalent theme throughout the song.


In the second verse, the lyrics convey an anti-establishment sentiment by referencing the advice given to the artist when he was younger: "Don't follow leaders just think for yourself." This line echoes Bob Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues" and is a nod to the counterculture of the 1960s. The song then critiques the idea that people are preoccupied with other people's lives instead of their own, highlighting the need for introspection and individuality rather than conformity.


The chorus is a reflection of the singer's desire to break free from the societal norms and pressure to succeed. They acknowledge that there's "no use thinking we could ever be something" and that they are "better off as we are." There's a sense of resignation in these lines: that they've accepted their fate and are content with what they have.


Overall, the song resonates with anyone who has felt trapped in their circumstances and has longed for a life beyond it. The lyrics encourage introspection and self-reflection while still acknowledging the harsh realities of life.


Line by Line Meaning

We sat around at night and talked about so many things
We spent nights talking about various topics


Lay on the floor till the morning appeared
We stayed on the floor until sunrise


You laughed at me and said I just don't get it
You found humor in me not understanding something


You said we should be making plans for getting out of here
You suggested that we plan to leave this place


Somebody told me when I was just a little kid
I was told this when I was young


Don't follow leaders just think for yourself
Think for yourself and don't blindly follow others


But everybody minds everybody else's business here
People here are overly concerned with other people's affairs


Why can't they turn their eyes to somebody else
Why can't they pay attention to someone else instead?


Tell me no use thinking
It's pointless to think


We could ever be something
We could ever become something great


We could rise with the stars
We could achieve incredible success


Better off as we are
We're better off staying as we are


My older brother he left the day he finished school
My older brother left as soon as he graduated


Moved down to New York to Washington Square
He moved to Washington Square in New York


He calls me up and says you should come and see me
He calls me and invites me to visit him


Watch the waves of people rolling everywhere
Watch the crowd of people moving around


Late in the evening I'm up in my room
Late at night, I'm in my room


Trying to think of nothing clear away the day
Trying to clear my mind and forget about the day


I lie awake and let my body wander
I stay awake and let my mind wander


Up into the moonlight floating away
Drifting away into the moonlight
