#5 Sky Gray




This song is one of two tracks from her first full album ('1719') that is fully in English. It was a very nice surprise to get when i heard the album. Most of the time listening to korean songs, you can feel the emotion and tone, but there's just something different when you can truly grasp the words. I think she hit this one out of the park with imagery and tone. The song really has a two pronged attack. The lyrics describe many things that happen as the seasons transition into winter, the colors leaving the plants, the birds leaving the sky, darkness creeping in. But, it's obvious that the deeper meaning of the song is also from a mental perspective, that the winter can sometimes creep into your mind. Honestly, it's just a perfect metaphor and the fact that she nailed it in a second language just impresses me even more.

Please have a look at the lyrics below as you are listening!




Sky gray, sky gray
Oh, sky gray on my mind

Haven't seen the sun, so many days
Haven't felt the light on my flesh
Though it gets a bit of red
It's all gray on my mind

Haven't toy learned all these years
Nothing lasts forever
So this thing will disappear at last
The gray on my mind

Trees and flowers
Lose their colors
Could I see them back before I, I

Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind
Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind

Would be better if it rains
Nothing comes down to my chest
If I hear some raindrops
I could cry

Hard to tell the time I'm livin'
Does it matter anyway, nah
Humming in the hazy room
I might cry

Birds are gone now
Without goodbyes
Could I see them back before, I

Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind
Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind

Am I dreamin', dreamin'
Feel like drownin', drownin' deep
Oh, is there a God hearing me
Take me home

Am I breathin', breathin'
Feel like losing, losing all senses
If you care just a little
Bring me home

Am I dreamin', dreamin'
Feel like drownin', drownin' deep
Oh, is there a God hearing me
Take me home

Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind
Sky gray, sky gray
Sky gray on my mind

Am I dreamin', dreamin'
Feel like drownin', drownin' deep
Oh, is there a God hearing me
Take me home

Am I breathin', breathin'
Feel like losing, losing all senses
If you care just a little
Bring me home

As a bonus here's a live performance of Sky Gray from her Mu:con appearance a few months ago. As this was just an album track i was so pleasantly surprised to hear it! If the time stamp doesn't work, it starts at 8:30 (but if you want listen to the whole thing, bc she's amazing!)
