Lyrics
Leave me with photographs
Leaving behind memories captured in photographs.
Shoebox filled falls to the ground
A shoebox filled with memories falls to the ground, symbolizing a loss or breakage.
Film leaves blow
Film leaves blowing away may represent fleeting moments or memories.
Plane takes off
A plane taking off may symbolize departure or separation.
Worry of don't love me
Expressing concern about not being loved.
Worry of don't leave me
Expressing concern about not being left alone.
Steal away any fleeting scent I can, out of my mind
Trying to capture and retain any fleeting memories despite emotional struggles.
Rose tinted stark indifference
Experiencing indifference with a tint of romanticized nostalgia.
The world you threw at me
The challenges and experiences thrown by the world.
Has led me to my grave
These challenges leading to a metaphorical 'grave' or a state of exhaustion.
And now I'm tired
Feeling tired and drained.
Yet you are nowhere to be found
Despite exhaustion, the person being sought is absent.
It's getting late
Time is passing, and the situation is becoming urgent.
I'm getting cold
Feeling cold but refusing to go home, possibly avoiding confronting a difficult reality.
Still I refuse to go home
Choosing to stay despite discomfort.
I wander the aisles
Wandering aimlessly, perhaps searching for meaning or resolution.
Throw up my lunch from denial
Experiencing physical distress, vomiting due to denial.
You fucking liar
Expressing frustration and betrayal by someone considered a liar.
I come here every day
Continuing to visit a place, possibly a metaphorical store, every day.
To shed the heavy weight
Seeking relief from a heavy emotional burden.
Missing your presence while you
Yearning for the presence of someone absent.
Fall deeper into your drink
Observing someone descending deeper into the escapism of alcohol.
Into your drink, eternally
Highlighting the perpetual nature of drowning sorrows in alcohol.
Spend your whole life building a table of contents of all the people you meet
Reflecting on a life spent cataloging experiences but struggling to understand oneself.
The scents you smell and the sights you see
Describing the efforts to capture scents and sights in life but facing a personal identity crisis.
But that doesn't help me figure out me
Expressing a difficulty in self-discovery despite external experiences.
You never helped me figure out me
Acknowledging a lack of support or guidance in understanding oneself.
You never helped me figure out me, never
Emphasizing the absence of assistance in self-discovery.
The people you meet
Reiterating the cataloging of people met in life.
The scents that you smell
Repeating the capturing of scents and sights in life.
And all the sights that you see
Continuing the theme of experiencing life's offerings.
Why did you go
Pondering the reasons behind someone's departure.
I'm alone at the store
Being alone in a store, possibly a metaphor for loneliness or abandonment.
And still I refuse to go
Despite the situation, refusing to leave the store.
Waiting on your phone call
Anticipating a phone call, possibly seeking connection or resolution.
Just to, just to ignore it
Despite anticipation, expecting to be ignored during the phone call.
