Seasons of Change: Embracing Life's Transitions in Crimson Calamity's Sowyn Song
Lyrics
Some things aren't meant to stay
Some things are transient and not meant to last.
Seasons pass and people change
Time passes, and people undergo changes.
It might hurt, but that's okay
Pain is a part of life, and it's acceptable.
Some things aren't meant to stay
Reiteration that certain things are not permanent.
Honey you can leave, it don't phase me
Addressing someone, expressing indifference to their departure.
My roots run deep and I'll be fine
Asserting resilience and stability with deep-rooted connections.
Cause you ain't nothin' but a leaf on my tree
Comparing the person to a leaf on a tree, easily detached.
You're in with the spring and gone with the breeze
Describing the ephemeral nature of the relationship, tied to seasons.
You'll turn yellow when it starts to freeze
Metaphorically depicting emotional changes with changing seasons.
Then I'll take my branches and shake you from me
Expressing readiness to remove the person from one's life.
Cause honey you ain't nothin' but a leaf on my tree
Reiterating the person's insignificance in the speaker's life.
Your love is bittersweet
Describing the contradictory nature of the person's love.
It comes on strong, but it leaves me weak
Intense emotions are experienced but leave the speaker vulnerable.
It's all I want, and all I don't need
Expressing a conflict between desire and necessity.
Cause baby, your love is bittersweet
Summarizing the conflicting nature of the person's love.
cnd honey you can leave, that chill might sting
Encouraging the person to leave, acknowledging potential pain.
But my roots run deep and I'll be fine
Reasserting stability and resilience despite the departure.
Cause you ain't nothin' but a leaf on my tree
Reiterating the person's insignificance using the tree metaphor.
You're in with the spring and gone with the breeze
Repeating the seasonal metaphor, emphasizing impermanence.
You'll turn yellow when it starts to freeze
Depicting emotional changes with the changing of seasons.
Then I'll take my branches and shake you from me
Expressing a decisive action to remove the person from one's life.
Cause honey you ain't nothin' but a leaf on my tree
Reiterating the person's insignificance and disposability.
Meant to be is sometimes short and sweet
Reflecting on the brevity of some relationships.
So as the air grows cold and you turn gold
Using seasonal imagery to convey the natural end of the relationship.
I'll set you free
Deciding to let go of the person as seasons change.
Cause you ain't nothin' but a leaf on my tree
Reiterating the person's insignificance with the leaf metaphor.
Now I'm watching you slip away from me
Observing the person's departure with detachment.
You'll float on as a memory
Acknowledging the person's existence as a memory.
cnd I'll make new ones in the spring
Planning to create new memories in the future.
Honey, I'll make new ones in the spring
Expressing readiness to move on and create new experiences.
