In Over Your Head
Navigating Shadows: Cloud Cafe's Tale of Redemption
Lyrics
You're a big boy
You have matured and grown up.
bit scared in the back of a limousine
You're somewhat fearful while riding in the back of a luxurious car.
the biggest you've ever seen
Describing the grandiosity of the situation.
You're in over your head
You're involved in something complex or challenging.
Didn't see dad in a while
Your father has been absent for a while.
cause you went out selling weed
You were engaged in illicit activities like selling drugs.
or something a little obscene
Describing activities that are morally questionable.
Didn't care when I said
Ignored warnings or advice given by someone.
you're in over your head,
Reiterating that you are in a difficult situation.
I bet that you'll feel sad over time
Predicting that you will experience sadness over time.
Didn't get back to the house till late
You returned home late due to talking excessively.
cause you ran your mouth
You talked too much, leading to a delay in returning home.
So you sacked out on the couch
You fell asleep on the couch with a bottle of red wine.
with a bottle of red
Indulging in alcohol as a coping mechanism.
Damn you never called back
The person did not return your call.
and i set at the cafe we would meet
Waiting at the cafe where you were supposed to meet.
just a short walk down your street
The meeting place is conveniently close.
Too hard of a promise to keep
Keeping a promise proves to be challenging.
Didn't care when I said you're in over your head
Repeating the idea that the person is in over their head.
I bet that you'll feel sad over time
Reiterating the prediction of future sadness.
Damn if wishes were horses
Expressing a hypothetical scenario where wishes could come true.
beggars would ride
Reflecting on the fact that sometimes wishes don't come true.
We both forget that line
Mentioning a forgotten detail, perhaps a promise or commitment.
but darling you're feeling it too
Acknowledging that the person is also feeling the weight of the situation.
way to be free in the city
Suggesting a desire for freedom in the city.
visit me
An invitation to visit, possibly seeking connection.
I won't forget this time
Promising not to forget a commitment or promise this time.
you're all fucked up inside,
Describing internal turmoil or emotional distress.
like you're doing
Comparing the person's state to someone who is struggling.
