Lyrics
I feel alright now
I currently feel fine
But for how long
Uncertainty about how long this positive feeling will last
What you ask of me
There's a request or expectation from someone
Is something I could never be
Expressing an inability to fulfill that expectation
So for this time
Referring to a specific period
Let it be unsaid
Suggesting that something should remain unspoken
So for this time
Repeating the idea of keeping something unsaid
You ask me gently
A gentle request for strength
Can't you be strong
Encouragement to be emotionally resilient
It's the sweetest ache
Describing a bittersweet longing or desire
But far too much for my heart to take
Acknowledging that the desire is too overwhelming
So for this time
Reiterating the idea of leaving something unspoken
Karen, you wanted me
A specific person named Karen is addressed
But not the way it was supposed to be
Karen wanted a connection, but it didn't happen as expected
Karen, you wanted me
Repeating the idea that Karen desired a connection
But not the way it was supposed to be
Emphasizing the deviation from the expected connection with Karen
I feel alright now
Repetition of the initial feeling of being fine
But for how long
Recurrence of uncertainty about the duration of well-being
What you ask of me
Reiteration of an unattainable expectation
Is something I could never be
Reaffirmation of the inability to fulfill the expectation
So for this time
Emphasizing the idea of leaving something unspoken
Karen, you wanted me
Repetition of Karen's desire for a connection
But not the way it was supposed to be
Reiteration of the deviation from the expected connection with Karen
Karen, you wanted me
Emphasizing the unexpected nature of the connection with Karen
But not the way it was supposed to be
Highlighting the deviation from the anticipated connection with Karen
Karen, you wanted me
Reiteration of Karen's desire for a connection
But not the way it was supposed to be
Emphasizing the unexpected nature of the connection with Karen
Karen, you wanted me
Repeating the idea of a deviation from the expected connection
But not the way it was supposed to be
Underlining the unexpected nature of the connection with Karen
Karen, you wanted me
Repetition of Karen's desire for a connection
But not the way it was supposed to be
Emphasizing the unexpected nature of the connection with Karen
