66 Park Avenure
Rolf Kuehn Lyrics

The lyrics to Rolf Kuehn's "66 Park Avenue" are open to interpretation, as they seem to be abstract and poetic. The first stanza presents vivid imagery: "Weightless falls/Honeysuckle/Strangers, strange this/Lights from pages/Paper thin thing/Protected by the naked eye/Pearly sunrise." The use of the term "weightless" could refer to a feeling of being unburdened or carefree. The mention of honeysuckle and the pearly sunrise may suggest a peaceful and idyllic setting. Meanwhile, there is a sense of unfamiliarity and perhaps even strange occurrences with "strangers" and "paper thin thing." The second stanza introduces a character who appears worn and apprehensive. "Nearly worn/Kneeling like a supplicant/Darkened skin/Afraid to see/Radiate/Open lips/Keep smiling for me/Darkened skin/Afraid to see/Radiate/Open lips/Keep smiling for me." The lines "keep smiling for me" indicate some kind of external pressure or request to conceal one's true emotions. This person's darkened skin and radiance could signify both physical and emotional hardships. The final stanza returns to the serene and ethereal imagery from the beginning. "Weightless cool/Honeysuckle/Fair skin freckles/Uncut teeth/Tranquil eyes/Bite my lips/Bite my lips/Shh/Under your feet." The phrase "bite my lips" may imply holding back on expressing true feelings, while "under your feet" could mean surrendering to someone or something else.
