I Won't Be Living Here Anymore
Farewell Echoes: Embracing Change in Andrew Neal's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
Down through the alleyway
Describing the path through the alleyway.
Where we used to play
Reflecting on a past location where they played.
Running scared, just to get away
Running away, possibly from problems or challenges.
I was young, but I knew I wasn't wrong
Even in youth, the speaker had a sense of right and wrong.
All my confusion kept me here too long
Confusion kept the speaker in a place for too long.
Though I'll miss you
Expressing a sense of missing someone.
I know that for sure
Acknowledging the certainty of missing the person.
There's nothing to see
Nothing to discover that hasn't been seen before.
That I haven't saw
Emphasizing familiarity with the surroundings.
A love like this has opened up the door
A transformative love has opened new opportunities.
And I won't be living here anymore
Decision to move on, not living in the current place.
I won't be living here anymore
Reiterating the decision to leave the current living situation.
Ahh crying in the night
Expressing emotional pain during the night.
Ohh there's trouble on the street
Highlighting trouble and chaos in the streets.
Ahh crying every night
Continuing to cry and referencing street violence.
Ooh there's murder on the street
Further emphasizing the presence of danger on the streets.
There's no surprise
Anticipating no surprises, knowing what lies ahead.
What lies before my eyes
Reflecting on a lifetime spent in the same place.
I've lived here all of my life
Questioning the future after the day is over.
What will become
Contemplating the outcome when the day ends.
When the day is done?
Possibly feeling stagnant while waiting for change.
If I wither waiting for the sun
Expressing a desire for a positive change with the sun.
Oh I love you I won't let you down
Promise of love and commitment to not disappoint.
I do love you I won't let you down
Reaffirming love and commitment to not let the person down.
Remedies of memories
Memories and remedies revisited in dreams.
Come back to me in dreams
Returning memories, but pockets filled with emptiness.
Pockets full of emptiness
Describing a sense of lack or void in the speaker's life.
So now I'll stitch the seems
Symbolically mending the gaps or issues in life.
I am an open book
Describing oneself as transparent and honest.
My pages still unfold
Continuing to unfold and reveal personal stories.
This is a chapter of stories untold
Acknowledging the existence of untold chapters.
Though I'll miss you
Reiterating the sense of missing someone.
I know that for sure
Emphasizing the certainty of missing the person.
There's nothing to see
Nothing new to discover in the absence.
That I haven't saw
Highlighting familiarity with the surroundings.
A love like this has opened up the door
A transformative love has opened new opportunities.
And I won't be living here anymore
Decision to move on, not living in the current place.
Though I'll miss you
Reiterating the decision to leave the current living situation.
I know that for sure
Emphasizing the certainty of missing the person.
There's nothing to see
Nothing new to discover in the absence.
That I haven't saw
Highlighting familiarity with the surroundings.
A love like this has opened up the door
A transformative love has opened new opportunities.
And I won't be living here anymore
Decision to move on, not living in the current place.
I won't be living here anymore
Reiterating the decision to leave the current living situation.
I won't be living here anymore
Final confirmation of not living in the current place anymore.
