Crying With the Sky
Celeste Kellogg Lyrics

Tears are falling from the sky
It's raining, but the singer is using this as a metaphor to express the sadness of losing someone.

Guess sometimes even God needs to cry
The singer is reflecting on the notion that even a higher power experiences pain and sorrow.

Why is there so much pain?
The singer is questioning why life has to be so full of struggle and hurt.

Why does everything have to change?
The singer is expressing the difficulty of dealing with the inevitability of change in life.

Don't wanna let you go, so I keep hanging on
The singer is trying to hold on to the memories of the person she lost and is struggling to accept that they're gone.

To remember the way it used to be
She wants to keep the past alive in her mind and heart so she can hold onto the love she once had.

I know you're not here with me
The singer acknowledges that the person she lost is no longer physically present.

But I just want to see you one more time
She is expressing her desire to have a final moment with the person she lost.

I pray and I pray
The singer has been trying to find solace in prayer.

I miss you with all my heart
The singer is expressing the depth of her love for the person she lost.

But I know you're better where you are
Although the singer is grieving, she believes that the person she lost is in a better place.

Like the clouds with raining eyes
Another metaphor, the singer compares the rain to her tears falling from the sky.

I'm crying with the sky
The singer is using the stormy weather to express the sadness she feels.

They say it's a part of life
The singer is acknowledging that death and loss are a part of the human experience.

That it happens every day
She recognizes that she isn't alone in her grief, many people experience loss every day.

But I don't like this feeling
Despite understanding that loss is common, the singer is still struggling to cope with it emotionally.

Of you being pulled away from me
She feels like the person she lost was taken away from her too soon.

There's nothing I can do
She feels helpless and unable to change the fact that the person is gone.

But accept that I've lost you
She is coming to terms with the reality of the situation and trying to find a way to move forward.

And hold on to the memories that you wrote
The person she lost left an impact and memories that the singer is cherishing and holding onto.

In my soul
These memories are deeply ingrained and feel like a part of her being.

Without you, everything's really changed
The singer expresses how drastically her life has been impacted by the loss.

Without you, my whole life's been rearranged
The loss has disrupted her sense of normalcy and routine, leaving her feeling disoriented.

Like a big and crazy storm my feelings are torn
Another meteorological metaphor to describe the turbulent emotions she's feeling.

But your love is still warm inside me
Despite the pain, the love she shared with the person she lost is still alive and present within her.

I don't know where you are
She acknowledges the mystery of the afterlife and is uncertain of the whereabouts of the person she lost.

Or if you can hear me from this far
She is questioning if the person she lost can still hear her and feel her love.

But I have to say again and again
She keeps repeating her love for the person she lost, to try to remind herself of the good times they shared.

I love you with all my heart
She is expressing the depth of her love for the person she lost.

And I wish I were where you are
She wishes they were reunited, even if only in death.

I can't stop this storm inside
She is still struggling with the overwhelming grief she feels.

Crying with the sky
The singer uses the sky and rain to reflect the current state of her emotions, which are full of sadness and tears.
