I Know You're Scared
Embracing Uncertainty: Finding Love Amidst Life's Chaos
Lyrics
I know you’re scared
I acknowledge that you are feeling fearful
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t too
I would not be truthful if I claimed I am not scared as well
What a mess
Describing the situation as chaotic or disordered
And lately even worse, it’s true
Recently, things have become even more challenging, and this is a reality
I know it’s hard to grasp the way we have
Acknowledging the difficulty in understanding the current state of the relationship
Unraveled to this point
Expressing how the relationship has deteriorated to this point
I won’t pretend
Committing to honesty and not pretending
I won’t make promises that I can’t keep
Promising not to make commitments that cannot be fulfilled
Understand things would be different if it were up to me
Expressing that circumstances would be different if the speaker had control
I know it might just be the farthest place
Acknowledging that the current situation is far from ideal
From where you’d want to be
Imagining a place that is the opposite of where one would want to be
But if you find your head fill with doubt
If doubt fills your mind, look to the vastness of the stars
Look up and see the stars too vast to count
The stars symbolize something too immense to be quantified
Look down and feel the earth that holds you up
Connecting with the grounding force of the Earth
And if you’re still not sure where you belong
If uncertainty persists about your place, there's one constant
There’s one thing you can count on
Reassuring that the constant is the speaker's love
My love, my love
(Repeating the assurance of love for emphasis)
And in the end
Reflecting on the inevitability of returning to our origin
We all fall back into the space from where we came
We are transient, fleeting entities in the grand scheme of things
We’re just a breath
Life is fragile, akin to a breath
We’re but a momentary flash in the whole scheme
We exist for a brief moment in the broader context of existence
So if you find your heart fill with doubt
If doubt clouds your heart, look to the vastness of the stars
Look up and see the stars too vast to count
Reiterating the incomprehensible nature of the stars
Look down and feel the earth that holds you up
Ground yourself by feeling the support of the Earth
And if you’re still not sure where you belong
If uncertainty persists about your place, there's one constant
There’s one thing you can count on
Reassuring that the constant is the speaker's love
My love, my love
(Repeating the assurance of love for emphasis)
