Red Sky
Life is Better Blonde Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all I think is
Please don't fall out on me
On me
On me
Bright light faded in my life
Next to me
Lost
Lost our track
No please don't come close to me
Night time, waiting on my life
All I think is,
Please don't come over me
Lost
Stand my track
No please don't come after me
Bright light
Greatest in my life
All I think is
Please don't come close to me, next to me
Move it
Break my home
And all I can say is for walls beneath this red sky
Covering my mind
Red sky
Lost
Lost our track
Lost
Lost our track
The song "Red Sky" by Life is Better Blonde depicts the singer's fear of abandonment and loss of control. Red sky symbolizes a warning sign or a sign of danger, and the singer is afraid that something terrible is going to happen and harm them. The repetition of "please don't fall out on me" and "please don't come close to me" indicates a deep fear of being left alone and vulnerable. The bright light represents a renewed sense of hope or happiness that the singer is afraid will be taken away from them. The phrase "lost our track" suggests that the singer and someone else have lost their way or relationship.
The lyrics also suggest a sense of acceptance and resignation. The singer is waiting for something to happen to them, and they seem to have given up on preventing it. The phrase "covering my mind" might suggest that the singer is overwhelmed and unable to think clearly. This could be due to anxiety, depression, or trauma.
Overall, "Red Sky" is a haunting song that reflects on the emotions of fear, hope, and acceptance. The lyrics are cryptic and open to interpretation, which makes the song relatable to various experiences.
