Grass Stains
Eternal Grass Stains: A Melodic Tale of Love's Endurance
Lyrics
Woke up in Redondo, it was raining
Waking up in Redondo in the rain sets the scene for a reflective mood.
You were laying on me, life's been cute
Being with someone makes life feel pleasant and charming.
Lately, I felt so righteous
Feeling morally justified or virtuous recently.
Endless time for us, not enough
Having ample time together, but it still feels insufficient.
Now you know I wanted you
Expressing desire for the person.
I just couldn't look forward
Difficulty looking ahead, possibly due to a challenging past.
It was a mess that whole year
Describing a chaotic and troubled past year.
What I would do to show you what I know now
Expressing regret for not being able to share current insights with the past self.
I'll always feel something
Perpetual emotional connection when hearing the person's name.
When I hear your name
Associating emotional depth with the mention of the person's name.
I'm so good at running from staying the same
Skilled at avoiding stagnation but finding it draining.
But that shit's exhausting
Acknowledging the exhaustion that comes with avoiding stagnation.
'Cause you can't force change
Recognizing the inability to forcefully bring about change.
And you got the same jeans on
Noting similarities in attire, suggesting a connection to shared experiences.
The same old grass stains
Referring to enduring and visible marks from past shared experiences.
It's never for nothing
Emphasizing that experiences are never without significance.
You give me so much
Acknowledging the value and impact the person has brought.
I could get it my own way, gentle like a lamb
Expressing the possibility of achieving personal goals gracefully.
Pretty and I know it, I'm facing forward
Recognizing personal beauty and moving forward with confidence.
We got nothing left to redo
Indicating there are no more changes or alterations needed.
All the beauty in the preview
Highlighting the beauty that was evident in advance.
I was grateful just to hold you
Expressing gratitude for the simple act of holding the person.
I'll always feel something
Reiterating a lasting emotional impact when the person's name is mentioned.
When I hear your name
Continued emotional resonance tied to the person's name.
I'm so good at running from staying the same
Being adept at avoiding stagnation but finding it mentally taxing.
But that shit's exhausting
Acknowledging the fatigue associated with avoiding a static state.
'Cause you can't force change
Recognizing the impossibility of forcefully instigating change.
And you got the same jeans on
Observing shared traits or experiences through clothing.
The same old grass stains
Referring to enduring and visible marks from shared experiences.
Hey-hey
Interjection, possibly signaling a shift in the narrative or mood.
Oh-oh-ohh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Expressive vocalization, indicating heightened emotion or emphasis.
Love falls apart, we love from afar
Acknowledging the dissolution of love when faced with insurmountable distance.
When there's nothing left to do
Reflecting on the inevitability of the end when there are no alternatives.
