Control
Awakening Emotions: Basement Sweet's Journey to Finding Control
Lyrics
Wide awake but I
Expressing being fully awake but feeling as if still in a dreamlike state.
Feel like I'm still sleeping
Questioning the nature of thoughts and wondering if the speaker is still in a dream.
What is on your mind
Asking about the thoughts on someone's mind.
And am I still dreaming
Questioning if the current situation is real or part of a dream.
Pink clouds for a sunset
Describing a picturesque scene with pink clouds during a sunset.
She's running down the street
Observing a person running down the street.
She doesn't know it yet
Suggesting that the person running is unaware of something important.
But I think it's what she needs
Believing that what the person needs is not yet realized by them.
'Cause I know a way out
Asserting knowledge of a way out of a situation.
But I can't take control now
Expressing the inability to take control at the moment.
Do you see the way I feel and how
Pondering if others can perceive the speaker's emotions and struggles.
Could I do this without
Questioning the possibility of facing challenges without external help.
'Cause I need something to do
Expressing a need for meaningful activities, possibly with a specific person.
With you some sunny day
Desiring shared experiences on a sunny day with someone special.
Will you follow me to
Inviting someone to follow the speaker to a place of comfort.
Where you might feel okay
Expressing hope that the suggested place will bring emotional relief.
I never knew what this here
Reflecting on the uncertainty of the emotions experienced.
Feeling just might be
Acknowledging a lack of understanding regarding certain feelings.
Now we're going I can feel
Sensing that someone is pursuing the speaker as they move forward.
That she's coming after me
Feeling the approach of a person towards the speaker.
'Cause I know a way out
Reiterating knowledge of a potential escape route.
But I can't take control now
Expressing the current inability to take control of the situation.
Do you see the way I feel and how
Posing a question about the visibility of the speaker's emotions.
Could I do this without
Questioning the feasibility of overcoming challenges without assistance.
'Cause I know a way out
Reiterating knowledge of a potential way out.
But I can't take control now
Expressing the ongoing inability to take control of the situation.
Do you see the way I feel and how
Presenting the question of whether others perceive the speaker's emotions.
Could I do this without
Questioning the possibility of facing challenges without external help.
