Solitaire
Lost Love's Silent Game: Solitaire
Lyrics
There was a man, a lonely man
Describing a man who was isolated and without companionship.
Who lost his love through his indifference
His neglect or lack of attention caused him to lose his love.
A heart that cared, that went unchecked
He had a caring heart that remained unnoticed or unappreciated.
Until it died in his silence
His emotions faded away as he kept them to himself.
And solitaire's the only game in town
He resorts to playing solitaire, symbolizing his solitary state.
And every road that takes him, takes him down
Each path he takes leads him to a downward emotional spiral.
And by himself, it's easy to pretend
Alone, he can easily pretend that he won't love again.
He'll never love again
He convinces himself that he won't experience love anymore.
And keeping to himself he plays the game
He isolates himself further by engaging in solitary activities.
Without her love it always ends the same
Without love, his endeavors always conclude in the same desolation.
While life goes on around him everywhere
Life continues around him, but he remains detached, focused on his game.
He's playing solitaire
He persists in playing solitaire, emphasizing his loneliness.
A little hope, goes up in smoke
Any hope he has is extinguished.
Just how it goes, goes without saying
That's just the way things happen, without needing to be said.
There was a man, a lonely man
Reiteration of the lonely man's existence.
Who would command the hand he's playing
He tries to control the situation he's in.
And solitare's the only game in town
His solitary game remains the primary focus.
And every road that takes him, takes him down
Every path leads him to emotional descent.
And by himself it's easy to pretend
Alone, he can convince himself that he's incapable of loving again.
He'll never love again
He firmly believes he won't find love anew.
And keeping to himself he plays the game
He persists in his solitary game, regardless of the lack of love.
Without her love it always ends the same
His actions always lead to the same desolate conclusion.
While life goes on around him everywhere
He remains detached from life's ongoing events.
He's playing solitaire
His loneliness persists as he plays solitaire.
And solitare's the only game in town
His focus remains solely on the solitary game.
And every road that takes him, takes him down
Each path he takes continues his emotional decline.
While life goes on around him everywhere
Life continues around him, but he remains disconnected.
He's playing solitaire
Emphasizes his continued solitary state while life goes on.
