Lengsel i luften
Gjengen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
E det rart at eg flyr eg e så redd for å treffe bakken
Eg vetsje ka vi gjorde men vi gjorde det i parken
Oppover deg i den derre nedoverbakken
Eg kom inn og snublet og du fant meg nede på gulvet
Tok meg med opp i din mor sin gamle seng
Tenker du på det eller tenker du på meg
Min historie gir meg ingen svar
Alt eg vet det lærte eg idag
Min historie gir meg ingen svar
Eg vetsje kor eg skal bare kor eg kommer ifra
Hører du hører du stemmer
I hodet ditt der eg hører hjemme
Det verste av alt e at det stemmer
Vi svikter hverandre som forventninger
Min historie gir meg ingen svar
Alt eg vet det lærte eg idag
Min historie gir meg ingen svar
Eg vetsje kor eg skal bare kor eg kommer fra
The lyrics of "Lengsel i luften" by gjengen speak about a feeling of longing that surrounds the singer. It is described as a breath in the back of their neck, creating a sense of anticipation and fear of hitting the ground. The song reflects on a past experience in a park where the singer and someone else engaged in a mysterious activity that they can't fully remember. There is a mention of stumbling and being found on the floor, followed by being taken to an old bed belonging to the other person's mother. The singer wonders if the other person thinks about that moment or thinks of them. However, the focus is more on the singer's thoughts about all the people they never had the chance to fully connect with or experience.
The song explores the idea that the singer's own history doesn't provide any answers or direction. They have learned that everything they know was only acquired today, suggesting a sense of constant self-discovery. The uncertainty about their future and their origin is also expressed, not knowing where they should go but only knowing where they come from.
