Sober
Navigating Emptiness: Reflections on Sobriety's Impact
Lyrics
Cna you please remind me how to feel?
Seeking a reminder of how to experience emotions.
This emptiness is real
Expressing the reality of feeling empty.
And I can't bear the thought of it
Expressing difficulty in coping with the idea of emptiness.
Can you please remind me how to smile?
Requesting guidance on how to smile again.
I lost track after while
Noticing a loss of happiness over time.
Is happiness so hard to get?
Questioning the difficulty of attaining happiness.
Is it me, or is this over?
Wondering if the relationship is ending.
As I got sober, I watched you fade away
Reflecting on the impact of becoming sober and witnessing the partner's decline.
Is it me, or is this ending?
Reiterating the uncertainty about the relationship's status.
As I was pretending, I watched you fade away
Acknowledging pretense and observing the partner fading away.
I didn't know that time could move so slow
Expressing surprise at the slow passage of time in a state of aimlessness.
When you've got nowhere to go
Feeling lost with no direction to go.
The silence is so deafening
Describing the overwhelming impact of silence.
Wakin' up on the wrong side of your mind
Waking up with a negative mindset.
How could I have been so blind?
Realizing a past lack of awareness and understanding loss.
To see I'm losing everything
Acknowledging the loss of everything.
Is it me, or is this over?
Reiterating doubt about the relationship's continuation.
As I got sober, I watched you fade away
Connecting sobriety to witnessing the partner's fading away.
Is it me, or is this ending?
Repeating uncertainty about the relationship's ending.
As I was pretending, I watched you fade away
Noting the act of pretending and observing the partner fading.
Sooner or later, we gotta stop this elevator
Highlighting the inevitability of a separation.
You go your way, and I'll go mine
Emphasizing individual paths after a breakup.
I'm sure that I'll be fine
Expressing confidence in personal well-being post-breakup.
Is it me, or is this over?
Reiterating uncertainty about the relationship's status.
As I got sober, I watched you fade away
Linking sobriety to witnessing the partner's fading away again.
Is it me, or is this ending?
Repeating uncertainty about the relationship's ending.
As I was pretending, I watched you fade away
Noting the act of pretending and observing the partner fading again.
Is it me, or is this over?
Expressing doubt about the relationship's continuation.
As I got sober, I watched you fade away
Connecting sobriety to witnessing the partner's fading away once more.
Is it me, or is this ending?
Repeating uncertainty about the relationship's ending.
As I was pretending, I watched you fade away
Noting the act of pretending and observing the partner fading again.
Sober...As I got sober
Reflecting on sobriety and its impact.
As I got sober...
Repeating the acknowledgment of becoming sober.
(I watched you fade...) x 4
Repeating the observation of the partner fading away multiple times.
