Anymore: Unveiling Emotional Estrangement Through Brooke Barrettsmith's Melody
Lyrics
You're falling faster now
You are experiencing a rapid decline or descent.
Almost underground
You are becoming less noticeable or acknowledged, possibly in a metaphorical sense of being unnoticed.
I can't believe my eyes
The speaker is surprised or shocked by what they see.
It doesn't make sense
There's confusion or disbelief about the situation; it lacks logical explanation.
Everything's different
There is a significant change in the surroundings or circumstances.
(Are you happy now?)
A question is posed about the person's happiness.
I feel forsaken
The speaker feels abandoned or rejected.
You're not yourself
The person is behaving differently than usual.
Anymore
The speaker expresses a sense of not recognizing or understanding the person anymore.
I don't even know you
The speaker emphasizes the lack of familiarity with the person.
Anymore
Reiteration of not recognizing the person, emphasizing the change.
Is no one safe from you?
Questioning the safety of being around the person due to their changed behavior.
Can you hear me?
A plea or question about whether the person can hear and understand the speaker.
You're staring through me like you can't see me
The person seems emotionally distant or indifferent.
Anymore
Repetition of the feeling of not recognizing the person anymore.
Anymore
Reiteration of the sense of unfamiliarity and change.
Your words can cut so deep
The person's words have the power to hurt deeply.
Can't stop the bleeding
A metaphor for emotional pain that seems unstoppable.
Do you find pleasure in
Raising a question about whether the person takes pleasure in causing the speaker distress.
In watching me scream?
The person's enjoyment of the speaker's suffering, possibly implied.
I feel the sting
The speaker feels the emotional pain intensely.
(Are you happy now?)
A repeated question about the person's happiness, suggesting their actions are causing harm.
Nothing is sacred
Nothing is considered sacred or protected from harm.
You're not yourself
Reiteration of the person's altered state of being.
Look at me when I am talking to you
A direct plea or demand for attention from the person.
You never listen, never follow through
The person is accused of not listening or following through on commitments.
Look at me, I'm talking to you
Reiteration of the plea for the person to pay attention.
You never listen, you never listen
Emphasizing the person's consistent failure to listen.
