Take Two of These and Call Me in the Morning
Shelter in Your Lies: Beat City Tubeworks' Emotional Journey
Lyrics
Lost in the dead of night when I found you, and you led me out
Feeling lost at night, discovered someone who guided the speaker out.
But then you let go of my hand, what a bullshit move
That person let go of the speaker's hand, causing disappointment or frustration.
Cause I think you ought to know
Expressing the desire to convey information.
When I'm high and when I´m low
Describing how the speaker feels both in good and bad times.
Even if I know you lie, you´re the coat that will keep me dry
Despite knowing the person lies, they provide comfort like a protective coat in tough times.
Your touch will take me through the day
That person's touch helps the speaker get through the day.
Help me stay in the shade
Assistance in staying in a safe or comfortable position.
And now I never leave without you, always on my mind
Expressing constant thoughts about that person.
Your taste still linger on my lips, makes me go wild
The lingering effect of that person's presence on the speaker.
Cause I think you ought to know
Reiteration of the desire to convey information.
When I'm high and when I´m low
Reiterating feelings in different states - high and low.
Even if I know you lie, you´re the coat that will keep me dry
Emphasizing the paradoxical nature of the relationship; despite lies, providing comfort.
Your touch will take me through the day
The person's touch is a source of strength for the speaker.
Help me stay in the shade
Helps the speaker stay away from difficulties or unpleasant situations.
Hey, when I put you in my blender
Metaphorically referring to mixing the person in the speaker's life.
I will be hot and sweaty in December
Describing contrasting emotional states and their connection to the person.
And I´ll be chilling in July
Further contrasting emotions linked to specific times, indicating the person's impact.
Cause you´re never really sad and you´re never really glad
Describing the person's emotional neutrality and the speaker's contemplation of it.
Then what's the point for me to wonder why?
Questioning the purpose of pondering the person's emotional state.
One day I know that I won´t need you, and I´ll be all alone
Foreseeing independence from the person in the future.
But I may watch the sun go down, know how to play along
Anticipating continuing life's journey even without that person.
Cause I think you ought to know
Restating the sentiment regarding different emotional states.
When I'm high and when I´m low
Requesting permission to demonstrate emotions.
Baby, let me show
Expressing a desire to showcase something to the person.
Even if I know you lie, you´re the coat that will keep me dry
Reiteration of the conflicting nature of the relationship but acknowledging the support received.
Your touch will take me through the day
The person's touch continues to be a source of strength throughout the day.
Help me stay in the shade
Continued assistance in staying away from difficult situations.
Even if I know you lie, you´re the coat that will keep me dry
Reiterating the paradox of the person's role despite their dishonesty.
Your touch will take me through the day
The person's touch continues to be a source of strength throughout the day.
Help me stay in the shade
Continued help in staying away from difficulties.
