Berlin
Ry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Berlin in the cold
All that fighting, all that snow
Sober nights
And Byron on my mind
Tell me I'm not going home
And I'll stop waiting by the phone
Bedroom floor
And silence in my blood
Sorry, love, I'm running home
I'm a child of sun and the stars I love
The song "Berlin" by Ry feels like a yearning for escape. The first verse "Come down love, Berlin in the cold" sets the mood of wanting to escape a current situation and finding solace in the cold, dark environment of Berlin. The lines "All that fighting, all that snow" further emphasizes the need for a change of atmosphere, as the current place feels suffocating and hostile.
The next verse is a mix of nostalgia and desire. "Sober nights and Byron on my mind" suggests a desire for a clear-headed escape, with literature providing the mental escape. The line "Tell me I'm not going home, and I'll stop waiting by the phone" feels like a plea to a loved one to allow the singer to escape and not wait longingly for their return.
The final verse gives a glimpse into the singer's mindset. "Bedroom floor and silence in my blood" paints a picture of loneliness and quiet reflection. The line "I'm a child of sun and the stars I love" suggests that this person is a lover of freedom and open spaces, which could explain the need to escape and find a new environment that provides that.

So my dad just died and it’s just gonna be my mom and I, I’m listening to this at 2 am letting all my emotions out. All our memories we had are popping into my brain making me more emotional. 2020 has been a horrible year.
Update : He saved 4 people by donating his organs, So they don’t have to go through what my family is :)
So it’s been about 6 months and I really don’t know why I keep writing on this but I guess it’s just my way of coping with things. So my parents anniversary and my birthday was a couple of weeks ago, and it’s like the day everything happened and seeing him in the hospital bed just replayed in my head. If felt so weird not having him there and asking me “if I felt older” I guess you really never miss the small things and the annoying things until you can’t experience them anymore. So I guess just appreciate the small things cause those are what you’ll miss most.
and I hope you have a good day or night if your reading this 🤍
