Here's What I'm Thinking
Unveiling Hidden Depths: Cooked Sushi's Reflection on Life's Missed Connections
Lyrics
Here's what I'm thinking
Expressing readiness to share thoughts or feelings.
I'll just lay it all out
Willingness to be open and straightforward.
You don't have to be receptive
Not requiring the listener to be accepting or open.
To pick up what I'm putting down
One doesn't need to be open to understand what's being implied.
And you dismiss me
Disregard or ignore someone quickly.
In an instant
An immediate dismissal.
I think you missed the point
Suggesting misunderstanding of the message.
Yeah you dismiss me
Repeated dismissal abruptly.
In an instant
Swiftly ignored.
I think you missed it
Implying a failure to comprehend.
I think you missed it
Reiteration of the idea that the listener didn't understand.
You had me convinced for a second there
Initial belief followed by disappointment or change.
Then you started doing drugs and you grew out your hair
Reference to the change in someone's behavior.
Okay, I guess that's fair but you're not
Acceptance of a situation but suggesting it's not an improvement.
Doing much better as far as I'm aware
Observation that the person's situation hasn't improved.
Here's what I'm thinking
Reiterating readiness to share thoughts.
I'll just lay it all out
Expressing openness once again.
You don't have to be receptive
Similar to line 3 - not needing receptiveness.
To pick up what I'm putting down
Similar to line 4 - understanding without openness.
And you dismiss me
Repeating the theme of dismissal.
In an instant
Immediate rejection or disregard.
I think you missed the point
Repeating the idea that the listener missed the point.
Yeah you dismiss me
Repeated dismissal swiftly.
In an instant
Swiftly ignored or not understood.
I think you missed it
Reiterating the belief that the listener didn't understand.
I think you missed it
Reiteration of the failure to comprehend.
You'll have to listen if I
Stating the necessity for the listener to pay attention if the message is presented effectively.
Make it sound good enough
Clarifying that the intention is not primarily to persuade but to impress.
It's not my mission but it's pretty cool
Expressing satisfaction in assisting someone in need.
If I can help someone who needs it
Reiteration of the readiness to share thoughts.
Here's what I'm thinking
Repeating the theme of openness.
I'll just lay it all out
Expressing a willingness to be straightforward once more.
You don't have to be receptive
Similar to lines 3 and 18 - not requiring openness from the listener.
To pick up what I'm putting down
Similar to lines 4 and 19 - implying understanding without needing receptiveness.
And you dismiss me
Repeating the idea of dismissal or rejection.
In an instant
Immediate disregard or dismissal.
I think you missed the point
Repeating the notion that the listener missed the main idea.
Yeah you dismiss me
Swift and repeated dismissal or lack of understanding.
In an instant
Quickly disregarded or not comprehended.
I think you missed it
Reiterating the belief that the listener didn't grasp the point.
I think you missed it
Reiteration of the failure to comprehend.

Nothing hits me like it used to
