The White Stripes - city lights

도시의 불빛 속에서 주인공은 타인과의 연결을 갈망하며 자신의 감정과 거리감에 대해 고민합니다
다른 사람들과의 관계를 어떻게 조화롭게 만들 수 있을지에 대한 갈등이 담겨 있습니다
결국 사랑과 고난 속에서도 상대방이 자신의 곁에 있을지에 대한 고민을 표현합니다

I want to grab a stranger’s hand and
Hold it as tightly as I can and
I will tell by their reaction if
They’re like me or if I am crazy
When the lights of the city hit my
Eyes on the plane looking out the window
I am consumed by a comforting notion
That you are there and
I am welcome
If our miles have added up to
A giant pile of distance that we
Cannot reach past, climb, or conquer
Will you dig a
Tunnel to me?
Every move suspends an action
Any attempt to engage will push away
What you want becomes a magnet
Opposing poles
Never meeting
Can you combine a friend and mother?
Can you blend a dad and brother?
Must we have to pick one or the other?
Will we know this or always wonder?
(Always wonder)
You can tell what you’ve done to me
To be seen in hell from your place in a tree
Always helping
Ever loving
But will you always
Be above me
