waiting
Yearning Echoes: Unspoken Words in Arny Margret's 'Waiting'
Lyrics
Waiting for a moment
Anticipating a specific moment
that never came
That expected moment never occurred
to tell you the things I wanted to say
Desire to express unspoken thoughts
but words always come to me afterwards
Difficulty expressing feelings timely
when nobody cares but I still feel hurt
Feeling hurt despite lack of concern
You said my eyes weren’t beautiful
Receiving a hurtful comment about eyes
why would you say something just to be cruel
Questioning the motive behind cruel remarks
stepped out of your car into the watery snow
Exiting a car into snowy surroundings
just wanted to go, so I slammed the door
Expressing frustration by slamming a door
so I spend my time waiting
Passing time in anticipation
with all of the things that I am
Embracing one's identity during waiting
and it’s all so frustrating
Feeling frustrated with the waiting process
I’m left out again
Experiencing exclusion or being left out
I’m still in my room and it’s already noon
Remaining in a room until noon
I haven’t done nothing, still waiting for you
Unproductive waiting for someone
but I’m starting to think that if I would die no one would know
Contemplating the impact of one's absence
I’d disappear and the plants would still grow
Speculating on life continuing without them
It's been a few days and no missed calls
Not receiving expected calls
Just me and my mind to talk through it all
Reliance on inner thoughts for companionship
but it only gets darker as the days go by
Increasing darkness in the emotional state
If i would see you I’d say I’d be fine
Claiming to be fine if encountered
so I spend my time waiting
Continuing to wait with self-reflection
with all of the things that I am
Embracing personal identity during the wait
and it’s all so frustrating
Expressing frustration with the waiting process
I’m left out again
Feeling excluded or left out again
I spend my time talking
Passing time by conversing with inanimate objects
To the walls or nothing at all
Reflecting on past interactions in solitude
thinking about past conversations
Contemplating whether they would be remembered
Would you remember me,
Questioning their impact on others
If I wasn’t around?
Speculating on the significance of their presence
