what love feels like
Discovering Love's Essence: Alan Fiore's Reflections
Lyrics
We already used what was left of our serotonin
We've already depleted our serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with mood regulation and happiness.
Never really noticed always hung up in the moment
The speaker was always absorbed in the present moment, possibly neglecting important things.
Now it all feels wrong because you're missing honey
Feeling a sense of emptiness or discomfort because the person they care about is absent.
And I know that I'm not one to run
The speaker acknowledges they are not one to easily escape from challenges or problems.
It's just everything around me is getting boring
Surroundings have become monotonous, prompting a desire for change or excitement.
So I'll make the trip to Connecticut
Expressing a decision to travel to Connecticut, indicating a need for a change of scenery.
And buzz my head because its been minute
Intending to cut their hair, possibly as a symbolic act of renewal or change.
Since I've had space to unwind
Reflecting on the need for personal space and relaxation that has been lacking.
At least now I know what love feels like
Realizing and appreciating the feeling of love, possibly in the absence of the loved one.
Standing in the checkout line
Being in a mundane situation, waiting in line, and contemplating the meaning of love.
I'll make sure I get by
Expressing determination to overcome challenges or obstacles.
And honestly it feels kind of nice
Feeling content and positive about the current situation and experiences.
Knowing that I got to be that
Acknowledging the privilege of being a source of happiness for someone else at least once.
At least once before I die
Reflecting on the fulfilling experience of being a source of joy before death.
But as of now I'll fake a smile and clean up nicely
Putting on a facade of happiness and tidiness despite inner struggles.
Make sure to brush my teeth and fold up all the laundry
Engaging in routine self-care activities like brushing teeth and doing laundry.
Coz I've bit real hard on my tongue thus far
Enduring emotional pain or difficulties without expressing it outwardly.
Attest to broken strings on my guitar
Referring to challenges and hardships faced, possibly in relationships (broken guitar strings).
I need to keep on pushing on or I'll get lonely
Highlighting the necessity of persevering through difficulties to avoid loneliness.
So I'll make the trip to Connecticut
Reiterating the decision to travel to Connecticut for a change.
And buzz my head cause its been minute
Continuing the theme of personal renewal through a symbolic act like cutting hair.
Since I've had space to unwind
Stressing the importance of having space for personal relaxation and reflection.
At least now I know what love feels like
Reaffirming the realization and appreciation of what love feels like.
Standing in the checkout line
Being in a routine situation but determined to overcome it with a positive attitude.
I'll make sure I get by
Ensuring the ability to overcome challenges or obstacles in the checkout line.
And honestly it feels kind of nice
Reiterating the positive feeling associated with being a source of joy for someone else.
Knowing that I got to be that
Acknowledging the privilege of contributing to someone's happiness before death.
At least once before I die
Emphasizing the significance of being a source of joy as a fulfilling life experience.
Yeah knowing that I got to be that
Reiterating the gratitude for having the opportunity to bring happiness to someone's life.
At least once before I die
Affirming the importance of being a source of joy at least once before the end of life.
