Something Happened
Journey Through Regret: CORNER STORE KINGDOM's Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
Something happened
Reflecting on a significant event or change
I was young and I was away
Being away during a crucial time in life
I mistook your hand for a soft place to land
Misinterpreting support for vulnerability
So I'm running back away, running back away
Escaping or distancing oneself from the situation
Something happened
Another impactful event occurring
I was young and I was afraid
Fearful experiences during youth
I mistook your smile; thought I’d stay in for a while
Misreading happiness and stability
So I clung onto your arm every other day
Clutching onto a false sense of security
Hey, he-ey he-ey
Expression of surprise or realization
What did you say?
Seeking clarification or repetition
Say it out loud
Encouragement to vocalize thoughts
Make yourself proud
Fostering self-esteem and confidence
Put the dolls away
Symbolic act of putting away childish things
Get rid of your weaponry
Discarding means of harm or defense
Claw out your fingernails
Metaphor for letting go of destructive habits
Dispose of the body
Symbolic removal of a problematic element
You made some threats
Reacting to threats with determination
I made it my vendetta
Turning threats into a personal mission
You push and shove it down
Suppressing negative emotions
Who’s the Holy Ghost now?
Questioning authority or religious influence
So when I finally decided, I detested you
Expressing strong dislike after consideration
You took it rather I was taking a liking to you
Perceiving attachment despite negative feelings
Hold on tighter 'cause I'm really not a fighter
Reluctance to engage in conflict
Mentally in Sweden while I’m crying and I'm yelling
Mentally distant while experiencing emotional turmoil
My body’s in the bathroom but my head is nowhere telling
Physical and emotional disconnection
You’ve got your own life to live as worthless as it is
Commenting on the perceived worthlessness of life
Something went and got me down
Feeling emotionally defeated
Sick idiot, you dog, let me go and take you to the pound
Using strong language to express frustration
Bite me again and I’ll put you down
Maintaining boundaries and self-protection
Hey, he-ey he-ey
Repeating the expression of surprise or realization
What did you say?
Seeking further clarification or repetition
Say it out loud
Encouraging vocalization of thoughts
Make yourself proud
Emphasizing the importance of self-pride
Put the dolls away
Symbolic act of putting away childish things (repeated)
Get rid of your weaponry
Discarding means of harm or defense (repeated)
Claw out your fingernails
Metaphor for letting go of destructive habits (repeated)
Dispose of the body
Symbolic removal of a problematic element (repeated)
Hey, he-ey he-ey
Repeating the expression of surprise or realization
What did you say
Seeking further clarification or repetition
Say it out loud
Encouraging vocalization of thoughts
Make yourself proud
Fostering self-esteem and confidence
Throw the dolls away
Symbolic act of putting away childish things (repeated)
Get rid of your weaponry
Discarding means of harm or defense (repeated)
Get rid of your fingernails
Metaphor for letting go of destructive habits (repeated)
Dispose of the body
Symbolic removal of a problematic element (repeated)
Dispose of your body
Expressing the need to let go of one's own body metaphorically
Dispose of your body
Reiteration of the need to let go of one's own body
