General Question
Can anyone explain these lyrics, M83 – We Own the Sky?
“Each shade of blue
Is kept in our eyes
Keep blowing and lighting
Because we own the sky
Secrets from the winds
Burnt stars crying
Soft soft or cruel
Can’t we change our minds?
We kill what we build
Because we own the sky
Secrets from the winds
Burnt stars crying
So many moons here
Lost wings floating
It’s coming, it’s coming now!
It’s coming, it’s coming now!
What’s coming? What’s coming now?
What’s coming? What’s coming now?
It’s coming from the sky
It’s coming from the wind”
I love this song and listen to it on rotation. I can only assume that because they are a French band, the meaning is getting “lost in translation” for me. Anyone have a synopsis?
