Lyrics
A tape recorder, a length of rope
Various tools and a symbol of potential self-harm or escape
Lack of focus, shred of hope
Lack of direction, a small amount of optimism
A piece of thread is all that holds
A fragile connection holding things together
This ship together
The fragility and vulnerability of the situation
In this room you lost your heart
A place where emotional attachment was lost
Document and catalogue
Recording and archiving experiences
Think of how the past gets bogged down
The tendency of the past to weigh down
Underneath your feet
Burdens beneath, emotional weight
Always underneath your feet
Constant emotional baggage
Turn this off when it starts
Stopping familiarity to prevent emotional pain
To sounds familiar
Recognizing familiar emotional patterns
It will always be incomplete
The perpetual sense of incompleteness
But no one can say that maybe someday your prayers won't be answered rewind
Hoping for unanswered prayers to change, longing for rewinding time
Take her word she's always right
Believing in someone else's certainty
She's always there on your darkest night
Support in times of darkness
You must go on what else is there for you to do now?
Emphasizing the necessity of continuing despite uncertainty
When you think you've lost my way
Feeling lost and seeking guidance
She'll hide the razors draw the shades
Offering protection from self-harm or emotional distress
You'll try to find the last good memory you once had
Attempting to hold onto positive memories
Turn this off when it starts to sound familiar
Avoiding triggers that evoke pain
It will always be incomplete
Continued sense of incompleteness despite efforts
But no one can say that maybe someday your prayers won't be answered
Hoping for change in unanswered prayers despite perpetual incompleteness
Rewind
Yearning to turn back time
I'm sorry I didn't get to see you I'm sorry I didn't keep in touch
Regret and apology for lost connections
My friend I've been missing you very much
Expressing the longing for a missed friendship
But you know it goes away
Assurance that pain diminishes with time
If you give it time
Encouragement to allow time to heal
