Destroy the Evidence
Unraveling the Echoes: Casiotone's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
You say you don't want me coming around anymore
You express a desire for me to stop visiting.
You sit in the window, you won't answer the door
You avoid direct interaction by sitting in the window and not answering the door.
The phone rings and rings
The phone rings persistently without response.
You won't let me bring you things anymore.
You reject my attempts to bring you things.
There are twenty six steps to your door
Your residence has twenty-six steps leading to the door, but I won't be keeping track anymore.
But I won't be counting those anymore
I am consciously choosing not to count the steps to your door.
I've got seventeen seconds in my room tonight
I have a limited time of seventeen seconds in my room tonight.
And when that's over I've got faith
After the limited time, I rely on faith for reassurance.
So all right, all right all right all right.
An expression of affirmation or acceptance, possibly in response to challenges.
I burned all the pictures
I have destroyed all the pictures.
I let the letters loose
I have released the letters, suggesting a form of letting go.
Taped over the mixes
I covered or erased the recorded mixes.
And cut the noose.
I severed ties or connections symbolized by cutting the noose.
There are twenty six steps to your door
Despite the physical distance represented by the steps, I am no longer keeping count.
But I'm not counting anymore
The act of not counting the steps continues.
But I'm not counting anymore
The repetition emphasizes the decision to stop counting the steps.
I'm not counting anymore.
A reaffirmation that counting the steps is no longer significant.
