Hungover
Rising Strong: A Tale of Resilience in the Shadows of Hangovers
Lyrics
I did the laundry,
I completed the laundry.
I cleaned the kitchen
I tidied up the kitchen.
Swept up the pieces of those broken dishes
I cleaned up the pieces of broken dishes.
I drank my coffee while yours got colder
I drank my coffee while yours got colder.
All while you were hungover
All these tasks were done while you were experiencing a hangover.
Baby, your head ain't the only thing hurting you know
Your head isn't the only thing hurting; there are consequences beyond that.
The sun keeps com in' up even if the curtains are closed
The world continues, and the sun rises even if you try to shut it out by closing the curtains.
That girl in the mirror I got to know her
I took a closer look at myself in the mirror.
All while you were hungover
All these realizations occurred while you were hungover.
I got a new job, I gave up smoking'
I secured a new job and gave up smoking.
I changed my lipstick, and those roses opened
I changed my lipstick, and positive changes unfolded.
I let my hair grow past my shoulders
My hair grew longer, symbolizing personal growth.
All while you were hungover
These transformations happened while you were hungover.
Baby, your head ain't the only thing hurting you know
Similar to line 7, emphasizing the broader consequences of the hangover.
The sun keeps com in' up even if the curtains are closed
Life continues, regardless of attempts to isolate oneself from it.
That girl in the mirror I got to know her
I became more acquainted with the person I see in the mirror.
All while you were hungover
All these self-realizations took place during your hangover.
Got a little bit stronger, got a little bit older
I became emotionally stronger and a bit older during your hangover.
All while you were hungover
These personal developments occurred while you were hungover.
I left he laundry and those broken dishes
I left the undone laundry and broken dishes behind.
Called my sister and bought a ticket
I contacted my sister and took a step toward a new beginning.
I got a good start on startin' over
I initiated the process of starting over.
All while you were hungover
All these actions towards a fresh start happened while you were hungover.
