Lick Your Wounds
Healing Shadows: Andy Shauf's Melancholic Tale Unveiled
Lyrics
Painted doorway
Symbolic representation of an entrance or transition, possibly suggesting a change or opportunity.
Open minded
Being receptive to new ideas or perspectives without prejudice.
Creaking stair set take me skyward
Ascending a staircase, metaphorically moving upward or progressing in life.
Close your blue eyes, kiss my dry lips
A moment of intimacy, asking someone to close their eyes and share a tender kiss.
Learn my lessons
Acquiring knowledge from experiences, possibly through challenges or hardships.
Put your dress on
Dressing up, possibly preparing for a significant event or putting on a facade.
Light this sidewalk
Illuminating the path forward, overcoming obstacles while in an inebriated state.
Drunk I stumble
Being intoxicated, stumbling through life without clear direction.
Words from my mouth, hear me mumble
Incoherent speech, possibly reflecting inner turmoil or confusion.
Who am I to fall in something
Questioning one's worth or legitimacy in engaging in romantic feelings.
Close to loving
Approaching the threshold of love but not fully committing.
Ever hurting?
Exploring the theme of enduring pain or heartache in the pursuit of love.
Find my heartbeat
Searching for one's own pulse or vitality amidst experiences of drug use and failure.
Drugs and failures
Acknowledging past mistakes and setbacks, seeking a remedy for sensory numbing.
Make your way to cure my senses
Someone else attempting to heal or comfort the speaker.
Close your blue eyes, kiss my dry lips
A repetition of a moment of intimacy, emphasizing emotional connection.
Fall in love with my own loneliness
Embracing and accepting one's own sense of isolation and solitude.
Baby lick your wounds
Encouraging self-soothing or self-care after experiencing emotional wounds.
Baby lick your wounds
A repetition of the encouragement to tend to one's emotional wounds, possibly with affection.
