Miss Communication
Navigating the Unspoken: Chris Peters' Miss Communication
Lyrics
You and I have been talking
You and I have been engaged in conversation
Late nights walking you to your home
Late nights spent escorting you to your residence
Sure feels good to not walk alone
It's comforting to have company and not walk alone
Down past Fenway
Referring to a location, Fenway, possibly a significant place
I don’t know where we’re headed
Uncertain about our direction or destination
Feel suspended up in thin air
Feeling suspended or uncertain in the situation
Do you like me or even care?
Questioning if there is genuine interest or concern
But I’ll save that for another day
Postponing deeper discussions for another time
For now
Emphasizing the current moment
Can we just go on not saying how we feel?
Suggesting a preference for not expressing emotions presently
Live each day in the “in-between”
Choosing to live in an ambiguous state
Cause deep down I know what truth reveals
Acknowledging an awareness of underlying truths
And sometimes it can be mean
Recognizing that truth can sometimes be harsh
I’d rather have miscommunication
Expressing a preference for misunderstandings over lack of communication
Than have to miss communication with you
Highlighting the importance of communication in the relationship
There’s hope inside this jungle
Optimism about possibilities despite challenges
Fragile roads won’t crumble if we turn away
Fragile paths won't collapse if we avoid confronting issues
Save that path for another day
Delaying addressing certain matters for the future
There’s nothing to discuss
Asserting that there's nothing urgent to talk about
Oh but we can talk about our futures
Suggesting discussing future plans and broader topics
And how computers are running everything
Mentioning the influence of technology on our lives
Or just sit back, find a new song to sing
Encouraging enjoying the present moment or finding joy in simple things
Talk about anything but “us”
Avoiding discussions about the relationship itself
For now
Reiterating the importance of the current moment
Can we just go on not saying how we feel?
Repeating the desire to postpone expressing emotions
Live each day in the “in-between”
Preferring to exist in a state of ambiguity
Cause deep down I know what truth reveals
Understanding the harsh realities that truth may bring
And sometimes it can be mean
Reiterating that truth can be unkind at times
I’d rather have miscommunication
Expressing a preference for misunderstandings over lack of communication
Than have to miss communication with you
Highlighting the importance of communication in the relationship
Do do do do
Vocalization indicating a transition or musical interlude
Do do do do do do
Continuation of the musical interlude
Do do do do
Extension of the musical interlude
Do do do do
Concluding the musical interlude
