Lyrics
How was I supposed to hold?
Feeling unsure about how to handle a situation or maintain something
You didn't tell me they'd dissolve
Not being informed about the consequences or outcomes
I didn't feel them in my hand
Not sensing or noticing something that was expected or should have been present
And now they're dripping on the sand
Regretting the loss or waste of something valuable or significant
Why did I forget to buy?
Forgetting a necessary task or responsibility
Nobody told me where to try
Not receiving guidance or directions to achieve something
I didn't think to look behind
Overlooking an important detail or aspect
And now they're closing all the blinds
Feeling isolated or cut off due to missed opportunities
Why d'ya laugh when I react?
Confusion or surprise about someone's reaction without being taught how to respond
You didn't teach me how to act
Lacking guidance or instruction on appropriate behavior
I just forgot to check the time
Forgetting to manage time effectively or being unaware of it
And watch your living pantomime
Observing someone's life or actions as if watching a theatrical performance
How was I supposed to choose?
Difficulty in making a decision without prior warning or information
You never warned me of the queues
Not being forewarned about waiting times or delays
I never thought to leave the room
Failure to consider leaving one's comfort zone or familiar surroundings
And now I'm trying to resume
Attempting to get back on track after an interruption or pause
How was I to know my stance?
Uncertainty about personal position or perspective due to lack of information or interaction
I didn't meet your acquaintance
Not having the chance to meet someone or understand their viewpoint
Or even see the evidence
Missing out on evidence or information that could have clarified a situation
And now I'm sitting on the fence
Feeling indecisive or neutral about a situation due to insufficient information
How am I supposed to play?
Difficulty in participating or engaging in something without proper instructions
You could've told me on the day
Not being informed about the requirements or expectations
I didn't notice all the flowers
Not noticing or appreciating small, beautiful things
And now I'm lost with what to say
Feeling uncertain or lacking words due to not paying attention to details or surroundings
