Lost on the People
Silent Echoes: A Reflection on Lost Voices
Lyrics
Stood at a screen so still
Being in front of a motionless display or monitor
Surrounded by the silence
Surrounded by a quiet environment
Barely a word you spoke
Speaking very few words
And the year is nearly done
Approaching the end of the year
Counting the days that come
Calculating or keeping track of passing days
Surrounded by your worries
Being encompassed by concerns or anxieties
I don't care for tomorrow
Not concerned about what might happen in the future
When your light is on
When you are present and shining brightly
When the words got lost on the people
When communication or meaningful messages are not understood or received by society
When the words got lost on the people
Reiteration of the message that words are not understood or received by people
There is a feeling
A sensation or emotion present
Fate is on its way
The belief or sense that destiny is approaching
I got close to the edge
Approaching a risky situation or limit
And I start to hear it falling in
Starting to perceive its collapse or failure
Won't live for tomorrow
Choosing not to plan for the future
Call you up today
Contacting someone in the present moment
I've been dialing your number up
Repeatedly attempting to reach someone
But the galaxy takes no missed calls
But unable to connect due to vast distances or detachment
When the words got lost on the people
Restating the lack of comprehension or reception of words by people
When the words got lost on the people
Reiteration of the idea that words aren't understood by society
