Green Coloured Glass
Embracing Fragility: Green Coloured Glass by Ainslie Wills
Lyrics
So hot then so cold
Expressing contrasting emotions, shifting from intense heat to cold.
Green coloured glass I’ll be careful
Referring to fragile, green-colored glass as a metaphor for vulnerability.
Not to break you
Committing to handle the fragility delicately, avoiding causing harm.
I don’t want to be responsible
Expressing a desire to avoid responsibility for potential damage.
I get stuck down here sometimes
Describing a feeling of being stuck in a challenging situation.
Get a bucket lower it down and I'll hop on
Desire for assistance, willing to be lifted out of a difficult circumstance.
Pull me up
Requesting support to overcome obstacles.
Past those sore walls
Passing through difficult experiences or emotional barriers.
You can’t hold on, no
Highlighting the inability to hold onto something, possibly letting go.
It’s there then it’s not
Describing the transient nature of something, appearing and disappearing.
Tell me am I pushing the daisy down
Pondering if actions are negatively impacting a situation or relationship.
Down into the ground
Imagining a negative consequence, pushing something down into the ground.
I wouldn’t want that to happen
Expressing a desire to avoid causing harm or negative outcomes.
And I’ll leave you to hibernate
Choosing to leave and allow for a period of rest or recovery.
Even if you are missing the whole world
Accepting someone's absence or detachment from the world.
Forget about it
Suggesting to forget about a situation or problem.
Don’t let it worry you girl
Encouraging not to be overly concerned or worried.
You can’t hold onto
Reiterating the difficulty of holding onto things that resist being held.
Things when they clearly don’t want you to you
Acknowledging the challenge of keeping things that don't reciprocate.
Just relax, let go it will come back to you
Advising to relax, let go, and trust that what belongs will return.
You can’t hold onto things…
Reiterating the theme of the difficulty of holding onto things.
