SOIL
- Something Real Lyrics / with translationsThis broken day will come and go
Broken and battered with nothing to show
Could this be the better part of my life
Something to hold on to white knuckle tight
I wait for something
You gave me nothing
I wait for something real
Something real
In the air I hear the sound of your voice
Too many questions with no clear choice
On my mind are the clouds in your sky
Will they rain down on you the day that I shine
I'd get down on my knees
With open wrists begging please
Oh won't you be my angel of sweet nothing
All that was said about the feelings I've bled
I want to disappear
My peddled flower my finest hour I've
Grown so tired of living this life
Broken and battered with nothing to show
Could this be the better part of my life
Something to hold on to white knuckle tight
I wait for something
You gave me nothing
I wait for something real
Something real
In the air I hear the sound of your voice
Too many questions with no clear choice
On my mind are the clouds in your sky
I'd get down on my knees
With open wrists begging please
Oh won't you be my angel of sweet nothing
All that was said about the feelings I've bled
I want to disappear
My peddled flower my finest hour I've
Grown so tired of living this life

✔️
When we interpret the meaning being expressed, SOIL's 'Something Real' explores the longing for truth and real relationships as the most groovy part of the human experience, even when it comes accompanied by feelings of emptiness and despair. The whole metaphor of 'the waiting for the real thing' captures very well the conflict between the human desire for meaning and the alienation posed by the world. The lyrics of Something Real are mainly dominated by heartbreak, despair, angst, reflection, and solitude. On the other side, the song also conveys the idea of waiting with something of great significance, to be disappointed and feel empty, that one is desperate and pleading, and the conflict is within. The lyrics portray emotional struggle and despair, including the 'open wrists' phrase, which some may take as a hint to self-harm. The words and pictures, though very powerful, do not go over into the area of explicit content, yet the emotional burden and possible references to self-injury do imply that the kids may need supervision while listening to this song.
