New Day
CLUTCHO Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take out a cigarette
Crows under railway lines
Dry air, silent time
The sticker-covered signs always make me wonder why
I can hear voices in the distance
The city will soon wake up
And face another brand new day
I just want to lay in bed
So far from all of this
Hope to be free
Sleep and wake to a new day
Now I just want to take a walk
Like that bird way up there
Hope to be free
Sleep and wake to a new day
4 a.m. this morning
I¥m walking under those railway lines again
It looks like it has been raining
I look down and saw myself in puddles
I can hear voices in the distance
The city will soon wake up
I can hear voices in the distance
And face another brand new day
I just want to lay in bed
So far from all of this
Hope to be free
Sleep and wake to a new day
Now I just want to take a walk
Like that bird way up there
Hope to be free
Sleep and wake to a new day
I just want to lay in bed
So far from all of this
I just want to...
Hope to be free
Sleep and wake to a new day
The lyrics of CLUTCH's "New Day" speak of a sense of longing for a new beginning. The song begins at 4 a.m., with the singer lighting a cigarette, surrounded by crows and dry air under the railway lines. The sticker-covered signs seem to reflect on the singer's confusion about life. In the distance, he hears the sound of people, implying the city is waking up while he contemplates his life.
The singer continues his introspection, discussing how he wishes to be free, away from the troubles of daily life. He hopes to lay-in bed and be free from everything that surrounds him and wake up to a new day. The song revolves around the theme of liberation and the need to break free from the monotonous routine of life. The last few lines of the lyrics again emphasize the singer's desire to be free from the constraints of daily life and wake up to a better tomorrow.
