The Arms of Automation
Embracing the Silent Longing: The Arms of Automation
Lyrics
When a fool begins to explain he's in love
Expressing that when a foolish person starts explaining, it's about being in love.
Where's the sympathy when he feels he should give up
Questioning the absence of sympathy when the person in love contemplates giving up.
Well I patiently wait for you
Patiently waiting for someone, possibly the one the speaker is in love with.
Where does truth begin when you know that it hurts
Pondering where the truth lies when one is aware that love brings pain.
All the time you spent you feel its time to give up
Feeling that after spending a significant amount of time, it seems appropriate to give up.
I know you'll never come
Expressing a belief that the person of interest will never arrive.
My arms will not take hold of you
Declaring that the speaker's arms won't embrace the person being addressed.
But instead of giving up I wait
Choosing not to give up and continuing to wait for the person.
I patiently wait for you in the dark
Waiting patiently in the darkness for the person to come into the speaker's life.
To fall into my arms
Expressing a desire for the person to fall into the speaker's arms.
When a fool begins to explain he's in love
Repeating the idea of a foolish person explaining their love.
Where's the sympathy when he feels he should give up
Raising the question again about the lack of sympathy when considering giving up on love.
I know you'll never come
Reiterating the belief that the person of interest will never arrive.
My arms will not take hold of you
Reaffirming that the speaker's arms won't embrace the person being addressed.
But instead of giving up
Choosing not to give up on love.
I waited all my life for this
Expressing that the speaker has waited their entire life for this moment.
I wait
Continuing to wait for the person, maintaining hope.
