Innpeach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Daddyish brother is the silly me
Take five, another and feel like vitamin c
Can´t take me all for yourself
So don´t waste your time on me
I´m so restrained
If love is blind then tell me
What the f**k is wrong with me
Watch all these flowers grow
And you will know
That the little boy he had a little dream of silky blue
Highlighting you so don´t annoy
The little concrete boy
Twenty sorrys , apologies
Give plenty of worries for the one millionth godwannabe
Dressed up in his silks and his feathers
Not too wise to stay inside
Too wise to stay alive
Concrete boy, he´s good he is what you might have called your dad
He´s digging in just for himself
He doesn´t know just where he is at
He´s the lucky one the one who´s left behind
And he breaks all the things he finds
He´s really one million storys or more
He´s what you hate what you adore
The lyrics of Innpeach's song "Concrete Boy" depict the struggle and confusion of a person who is trying to find his place in the world. The opening lines suggest that the singer's older brother is a father figure or mentor of sorts, but the singer sees himself as a dorky and insignificant person ("silly me"). The next lines suggest that the singer is seeking some kind of release or escape in drugs or alcohol ("Take five, another and feel like vitamin c"), but at the same time, he resists being possessed or controlled by anyone ("Can´t take me all for yourself/So don´t waste your time on me/I´m so restrained"). The singer then poses a rhetorical question about love, implying that he doesn't understand why he feels so out of step with it: "If love is blind then tell me/What the f**k is wrong with me".
The refrain "Watch all these flowers grow/And you will know/That the little boy he had a little dream of silky blue" seems to suggest that the singer has a vague or abstract desire for something beautiful or transcendent, represented by the image of blue. However, this dream is squashed or suppressed ("don´t annoy/the little concrete boy"), indicating that the singer feels trapped or confined by his circumstances or surroundings. The rest of the lyrics paint a picture of a reckless and self-destructive person ("Twenty sorrys, apologies/Give plenty of worries for the one millionth godwannabe/Dressed up in his silks and his feathers/Not too wise to stay inside/Too wise to stay alive"), who is nevertheless intriguing and charismatic ("He´s good he is what you might have called your dad/He´s what you hate what you adore"). Overall, the song speaks to the human need for purpose, connection, and meaning, and the difficulty of finding these things in a world that can be cruel and indifferent.
