Lost
Navigating Love's Fragile Dance: Chris Carroll's 'Lost' Reveals the Delicate Balance
Lyrics
It’s just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time, indicating inevitability or an upcoming change.
Before you change your mind
Suggests an anticipation of a shift in perspective or decision.
It’s just a manner of means
Similar to line 1, emphasizing an imminent change or transformation.
Before you spread your wings and fly
Before taking flight metaphorically, departing or pursuing freedom.
You got the better of me
Feeling overpowered or outmatched by someone or something.
But the knots they came untied
Despite efforts to hold things together, they fell apart or became undone.
I guess its hard to believe
Expresses skepticism or difficulty in accepting certain outcomes.
But some fairy tales they die
Contradictory to typical fairy tales, acknowledging that some stories don't end happily.
I nearly lost myself
Reiteration of feeling on the brink of losing oneself, potentially due to a relationship or situation.
I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
-You are the poison
Comparing someone to both poison and remedy, suggesting a complex and conflicting influence.
And the antidote
Reinforces the conflicting nature of the relationship, where the person is both essential and harmful.
You’re the air I can’t breathe
Depicting dependency despite it being suffocating or unhealthy.
In a cloud of smoke
Feeling trapped or surrounded by a situation that's unclear or confusing.
In my heart is a fire
Strong, passionate feelings directed solely towards a specific person.
That burns only for you
Despite intense feelings, acknowledgment that the love might not be reciprocated genuinely.
But our love’s like a prayer
Comparing love to a deceptive or insincere prayer, indicating a lack of authenticity.
From a liar's mouth
Reinforces the contradictory nature of the relationship or feelings involved.
Its true
Acknowledgment of a harsh truth amidst conflicting emotions.
I nearly lost myself
Repeated expression of feeling almost lost or on the verge of losing oneself.
I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
-It’s just a matter of time
Repetition of the inevitability of change or a decision about to happen.
Before you change your mind
A repeated anticipation of a change in mindset or decision.
It’s just a manner of means
Similar to line 3, emphasizing an imminent change or transformation.
Before you spread your wings and fly
Reiteration of departing or seeking freedom metaphorically.
You got the better of me
Feeling overpowered or outmatched by someone or something, echoing line 5.
But the knots they came untied
Despite efforts to maintain stability, things fell apart or became undone, echoing line 6.
I guess its hard to believe
Similar to line 7, expressing disbelief or difficulty in accepting certain outcomes.
But some fairy tales they die
Similar to line 8, acknowledging the potential downfall of typical fairy tales.
I nearly lost myself
Repeated expression of feeling on the verge of losing oneself, echoing lines 9-12.
I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
-I nearly lost myself
