When I Left the Room

Unraveling Echoes: When Love Fades Away

Lyrics

She used to make me feel

He used to feel empowered or confident because of her

Like I could do no wrong

She made him feel morally impeccable

I sang a happy tune

He expressed joy or contentment

Her name was in my song

She was an integral part of his happiness


But now her eyes foretell

Her eyes now suggest a negative future

Only impending doom

He anticipates only misfortune from her

And I just wanna know

He desires to understand her last words upon his departure

What she said when I left the room

Curiosity about her reaction after he left


We had a plan

They had future plans together

That if we sacked away

If they saved money

We'd go and buy that place

They aimed to purchase a specific property

Down in Santa Fe

A location identified as 'Santa Fe'


Then some kids

They expected children to come later

Oh, they would follow soon

Children were part of their future plans

But I just gotta know

He's fixated on her last words post his departure

What she said when I left the room

Continued fixation on her reaction upon his leaving


Paranoia, heart destroyer

He feels paranoid and believes his heart is broken

I feel like I could die

He feels like he's on the verge of emotional collapse

My mind is gone, 'cause you moved on

He's confused about her moving on

Still I don't know why

He's uncertain about the reasons for her actions


Voices in my head

He hears disturbing thoughts or doubts

Ring like a sonic boom

The thoughts are loud and overwhelming

Oh I gotta know

He's obsessed with knowing her last words

What she said when I left the room

Desire to understand her reaction after his departure persists


She left a year ago

She departed a year ago

With my record collection

She took his collection of records

Now all I have

He's left only with himself

Is my own reflection

His belongings are now minimal


I reckon, if she moved

Speculation about her leaving for an extreme distance

Away to the moon

He'd still want to know her last words

I'd still wanna know

He's fixated on understanding her reaction after he left

What she said when I left the room

Continued curiosity about her words after his departure
