The Same Old Tears
Echoes of Love and Loss: A Girl Called Eddy's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
It's the same old tears
Referring to recurring tears shed due to the same emotional pain or situation.
On a new background
Despite a change in circumstances, the same emotions persist.
Seeing you as a faded photograph
Viewing the subject (likely a person) as a distant memory, losing clarity over time.
It hurts too much to laugh, these days
Expressing difficulty finding joy or amusement lately due to emotional pain.
But I'm alright
Despite the pain, reassuring oneself that everything is fine or okay.
Yes, I'm alright
-I'm alright
-It's the same old song
Describing repetitive experiences or emotions despite variations in presentation.
With a new melody
Similar feelings resurfacing but presented differently.
This old candle's lingering flame
Metaphorical reference to a diminishing hope or love fading away.
Is almost gone
-To see you again is all that keeps me hanging on
The hope of encountering the subject again being the only motivation to persist.
But I'm alright
Reiterating a sense of being fine despite underlying emotional turmoil.
Yes, I'm alright
-I'm alright
-Remembering, remembering
Recollection of past pain or memories, revisiting familiar emotions.
The familiar heartache
Acknowledging a recurring feeling of heartache or emotional distress.
And no one but you
Expressing a belief that only the subject can fulfill a particular desire or dream.
Could ever make this dream come true
-It's the same old me
Continuously experiencing the same emotions and love for the subject despite walking away.
Crying the same old tears
-And I walk away like I always do
-Still in love with you
-But I'm alright
Reassurance of personal emotional stability despite the lingering love and pain.
Yes, I'm alright
-I'm alright
-I'm alright
Reiteration of self-assurance amidst the enduring emotional struggle.
Yes, I'm alright
-I'm alright
-I'm alright
A final affirmation of being okay despite the emotional challenges.
