Clouds
Newton faulkner  Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're not the type
To go out and find others
Who are just like
The ones in our cupboard
We only see
What we read on the covers
We only bleed
If we're not seen by another
If we're not seen by another

Stop looking down at the ground
Pick it out of the clouds
No one's gonna put you down
Just let it out let it out
Stop looking down at the ground
Just pick it out of the clouds
Just get it out get it out
Just let it all out now

Something's bound to change

Let's all go out
Go out and find lovers
That scream and shout
The kind you don't take home to your mother
We are the ones
Who cannot hide under covers
No sacred suns
Just us all crowded and cluttered
Just us all crowded and cluttered

Stop looking down at the ground
Pick it out of the clouds
No one's gonna put you down
Just let it out let it out
Stop looking down at the ground
Just pick it out of the clouds
Just get it out get it out
Just let it all out now

Something's bound to change
Something's bound to change

Stop looking down at the ground
Pick it out of the clouds
No one's gonna put you down
Just let it out let it out
Stop looking down at the ground
Just pick it out of the clouds
Just get it out get it out (Somethings bound to change)
Just let it all out now

Stop looking down at the ground
Pick it out of the clouds
No one's gonna put you down
Just let it out let it out
Stop looking down at the ground
Just pick it out of the clouds




Just get it out get it out
Just let it all out now

Overall Meaning

The song "Clouds" by Newton Faulkner is about breaking free from societal norms and finding our own path in life. The first verse talks about how we tend to stick to people who are similar to us and only see what is presented on the surface. However, the chorus urges us to stop looking down and pick our heads up to see the world beyond what is in front of us. The second verse encourages us to find people who go against what is expected and to not be afraid to express ourselves.


The song emphasizes the importance of being true to ourselves and not conforming to external expectations. The chorus repeats the line "something's bound to change," which implies that taking these steps toward authenticity and individuality can lead to positive transformation in our lives. The lyrics also suggest that this process of breaking free may be uncomfortable or overwhelming at times, but it is essential for growth and self-discovery.


Overall, "Clouds" is a powerful message about breaking free from societal pressures and finding our own unique path in life.

No sacred suns
No one is perfect

Something's bound to change
Things will get better soon.


Just let it all out now
Express yourself fully.

Also goosebumps.

Phillip Adams

Had the pleasure of seeing him live for the first two album tours. He is an amazing live performer

jonathan Clayton

He's touring the UK again soon

sunnygirly2k4

A gradually likeable song with a sense of fullfilling hopes and dreams. The vid's simple and effective, with mundane traffic in the background and just Newton playing on his guitar. Hope it does well as it's nice to see him back.

Trovo la sua voce pulita, piena di energia, bellissima. Il suo modo di suonare la chitarra strepitoso. La sua musica orecchiabile, ritmata, gradevole. Ho una sola perplessità su di lui: come mai non è strafamoso, straricco, stratutto? Vabbé, pazienza, non si può avere tutto nella vita. Non sarà strafamoso, ma di sicuro è stragrande come artista! E ve lo dice una rockettara che di solito ascolta tutto un altro genere di musica. GRANDE NEWTON!!!

Kenny Russen

This bloke is AWESOME, what a talent, a real musician, proper music!!!!!

Chotian

I hate how amazing music never gets heard & instead we're full up with pop music with no meaning. Beautiful song

Euan750

Totally under rated musician of the highest calibre and all round nice guy as well.....he is an awesome live act. Can't wait for the new album next week :)

MilkChurnMadness

They're both brilliant artists in their own right.
