Steady
Echoes of Insecurities: Unveiling Conflicting Melodies in Archie Faulks' 'Steady'
Lyrics
I held you up to the light
I examined you closely and critically
In the hope that we would be alright
With the expectation that our situation would improve
I guess I knew what I would find
I had a sense of what I would discover
The same hearts but such different minds
We have similar emotions but very different thoughts
Bound by insecurities
Connected by our insecurities
And our conflicting melodies
Our conflicting tunes or attitudes
And in the stainless of dreams
In the purity of dreams
I can make you flawless and clean again
I can restore you to perfection and purity
And I wait to find the tires
I anticipate discovering the weaknesses or faults
The way I clothe you
How I present or cover you
The way you changed
How you transformed
I can't change this way I feel
I cannot change the way I feel
In reality I know
In the real world, I understand
That she will never change
She will never alter
Never grow
Never mature
I hope you don't know
I hope you are unaware
Bitter lie shows the pain
A deceptive falsehood reveals the suffering
The hallowed night draws the veil again
The sacred night brings the cover once more
I question all you're made of
I doubt the substance of your character
Everything that we've lost and gained
Everything we've experienced, lost, and gained
Bound by insecurities
Connected by our insecurities (repeated)
And our conflicting melodies
Our conflicting tunes or attitudes (repeated)
And in the stainless of dreams
In the purity of dreams (repeated)
I can make you flawless and clean again
I can restore you to perfection and purity (repeated)
And I wait to find the tires
I anticipate discovering the weaknesses or faults (repeated)
The way I clothe you
How I present or cover you (repeated)
The way you changed
How you transformed (repeated)
I can't change this way I feel
I cannot change the way I feel (repeated)
In reality I know
In the real world, I understand (repeated)
That she will never change
She will never alter (repeated)
Never grow
Never mature (repeated)
I hope you don't know
I hope you are unaware (repeated)
Oh
Expression of emotion or realization
Oh
-And in the stainless of dreams
In the purity of dreams (repeated)
I can make you flawless and clean again
I can restore you to perfection and purity (repeated)
And I wait to find the tires
I anticipate discovering the weaknesses or faults (repeated)
The way I clothe you
How I present or cover you (repeated)
The way you changed
How you transformed (repeated)
I can't change this way I feel
I cannot change the way I feel (repeated)
In reality I know
In the real world, I understand (repeated)
That she will never change
She will never alter (repeated)
Never grow
Never mature (repeated)
I hope you don't know
I hope you are unaware (repeated)
