What is irvine by kelly clarkson about

Are you lonely up there all by yourself? Like I have felt all my life The only one to save mine How are you so strong? What's it like to feel so free? Your heart is really something Your love, a complete mystery to me Are you there watching me?

As I lie here on this floor Do you cry, do you cry with me? Cry with me tonight Are you there? Edit Lyrics. Lyrics powered by LyricFind.

Irvine song meanings. Add Your Thoughts 46 Comments. General Comment I got the distinct impression this song is not just about depression or talking to God, but about contemplating suicide. Kelly isn't the kind of person who would actually do something like commit suicide, but I think at her lowest point, she probably was laying there, on the floor, feeling like she wishes her life could just drain out of her so that she didn't have to feel anymore. It's a very personal thing, contemplating ending one's own life, and I can understand why she hasn't come right out in any interviews and admitted that was where her thoughts were at.

But to me, the first time I heard the song, I imagined someone laying on a floor after either cutting their wrists or taking a bunch of pills, and waiting for death to come, and having that conversation with God as they waited to die.

For her, it was probably an outlet for her morbid thoughts As a songwriter and creative person, writing that song was probably very theraputic because she got to act out in her mind an act she would never actually do, and wallow in her depression a little. There are a couple lines that support my theory: "Stay till the darkness leaves"-I think this means stay until she dies "I don't have much to go before I fade completely, can you feel how cold I am?

She did audition for Idol on a whim, after all. Maybe it was all fate. While writing for My December , Kelly Clarkson hit what she calls the lowest point in her life. She was severely depressed. One night, backstage before a show in Irvine, California, Clarkson wrote this devastatingly painful song.

Clarkson, riddled with depression, decides to have a conversation with God. She also asks God about Himself, if He ever feels as she does. If you ask me, this is where it was meant to be all along. In South Africa. The song opens with frenetic strings and a heavenly choir of Kelly Clarksons. The verses have a stuttering flow, as Clarkson describes falling in love as a wire being pulled tight around her neck. Because what if it all works out? I still regard this as one of my favorite Kelly Clarkson songs.

Guitar-driven and bouncy, this track is a prime example of a song with happy music but sad lyrics. Clarkson feels unnoticed and alone, longing for someone to show her they feel what she does. All Clarkson needs is to know that someone else feels as jaded as she does.

Which seems to be another theme here. For a song about a crush, this track sure is emotional. Clarkson wrote this for Piece by Piece on the night she meant her husband. But seriously, this is such a fabulous ballad— one of her best, in fact. Piece by Piece as a whole is pretty lackluster, but this song is a veritable diamond in the rough. I think it's obvious she's talking to God about her depression and she's saying "why cant i just die so I'm not around this sadness anymore".

I think she is talking to someone that is dead maybe a lost love that died and it is his spirit that she is talking to. I read somewhere that Kelly was pretty much fed up with the way things had been going in her life both personally and professionally.

It's called Irvine because she wrote it in Irvine, California after a concert. She wrote it in the bathroom at the venue she performed at. She said it's a prayer-type song. Ok here it is, phrase by phrase: Are you there? That would be saying 'you' are gone and 'I' hope you see this.

So take me up to heaven so I can be with you. That means you've experienced the same as I do. But she is. Login Register Login with Facebook.
