Lovers
Streetmark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And making love is done by perfect machines
You know that future has come
And you will know that some people
Right there would die
I realize that love is spirit
When you fell out in misery
To stay with that all time
You don't have to work all day as you do it now
But I'm sure it doesn't set this fire on
When is forbidden to love
Feelings are given up you to right there would die
I wonder why
These feelings gone
And would never return to us
Cause my heart and my brain
Are empty now
My feathers' wing get down
La-la-la-la-la-la-lala
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la...
(Henry Street)
The lyrics to Streetmark's song Lovers describe a dystopian future where love and intimacy have been replaced by machines. The first verse paints a bleak picture of a society where making love is no longer an intimate act, but instead, a mechanical process. The image of people dying right there signifies that the loss of real, human connection has fatal consequences. In the second verse, the singer realizes that love is a spiritual experience that cannot be replaced by technology. The use of the phrase "feelings I hate made you strong enough" suggests that through pain and suffering, one can find strength to endure. The final verse is a lamentation about the loss of these feelings and the emptiness that results. The repeated "la-la-la" at the end of the song could symbolize a loss of words to express the profundity of emotions.
