Only I Get Sad
Summer Blues: A Personal Journey Through Emotions
Lyrics
Am I alright
Expressing uncertainty about emotional well-being.
What hurts this time
Questioning the source of current emotional pain.
Oh, I don't know why I cry sometimes (I cry sometimes)
Confusion and introspection about occasional tears.
I go down in my emotions
Acknowledging a descent into one's emotions.
Not quite alright but never broken
Not completely okay but resilient, not shattered.
I'm just fine unlike everybody else
Claiming well-being compared to others.
'Cuz as far as I can tell
Asserting personal observations about sadness.
Only I get sad in the summer
Expressing a unique experience of sadness in the summer.
Only I get sad in the summer
Repeating the distinctiveness of summer sadness.
No, I don't need a lover
Rejecting the need for a romantic partner.
I just need time to recover I
Desiring time alone for emotional recovery.
Only I get sad in
Reiterating the uniqueness of summer sadness.
Only I get sad
Emphasizing individual experience of sadness.
Am I alright
Repeating the uncertainty about emotional state.
What do I feel inside my mind
Questioning one's internal feelings.
Don't know why I try sometimes (Oh, no)
Expressing confusion and frustration with trying.
I go down in my emotions
Acknowledging a descent into emotions.
Not quite alright but never broken
Not completely okay but resilient.
I'm just fine, I'm lyin' to myself
Admitting self-deception about well-being.
Just like everybody else (Oh, no)
Comparing oneself to others in self-deception.
I'm just walkin' through the motions
Going through life's motions without genuine emotion.
Tears fall down, my eye's an ocean
Metaphorically describing tears as an ocean.
I'm just fine unlike everybody else
Claiming well-being despite internal struggles.
'Cuz as far as I can tell
Reiterating personal observations about sadness.
Only I get sad in the summer
Expressing a unique experience of summer sadness.
Only I get sad in the summer
Emphasizing the distinctiveness of summer sadness.
No, I don't need a lover
Rejecting the need for a romantic partner (repeated).
I just need time to recover I
Desiring time alone for emotional recovery (repeated).
Only I get sad in
Reiterating the uniqueness of summer sadness.
Only I get sad
Emphasizing individual experience of sadness (repeated).
I go down in my emotions
Acknowledging a descent into emotions (repeated).
Not quite alright but never broken
Not completely okay but resilient (repeated).
I'm just fine, I'm lyin' to myself
Admitting self-deception about well-being (repeated).
Just like everybody else
Comparing oneself to others in self-deception (repeated).
I'm just walkin' through the motions (Through the motions)
Going through life's motions without genuine emotion (repeated).
Feelings show, but never spoken (Feelings show, yeah)
Acknowledging visible feelings without verbal expression.
I'm just fine unlike everybody else (I'm just fine)
Claiming well-being despite internal struggles (repeated).
As far as I can tell (Oh, no)
Reiterating personal observations about sadness (repeated).
