21 Days
Unraveling Existential Reflections
Lyrics
We got all this space
We have plenty of physical space available.
To move around
Despite the space, neighbors want us to be quiet.
But the neighbors still say
Others advise us to maintain silence.
We should keep it down
Implying the need for quietness even in a spacious area.
My unraveling sanity
My mental stability is falling apart.
Reality unwound
Reality feels chaotic and confusing.
When the last of my family
When all my family members have passed away.
Is six feet in the ground
Refers to the death of loved ones.
Watch me lose control
Witness me losing control of my emotions or actions.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
Repetitive melodic phrases without explicit meaning.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh
-Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh Oo–oo
-Three weeks is all that it took
It took a short period to experience significant life-changing events.
To see how hard my world could be shook
Realizing how profoundly my life can be disrupted.
No use in saving the memories
No point in preserving memories as they will fade with time.
Cause one day when I'm old they'll leave me
Memories will ultimately be lost or forgotten.
Every last thing
Everything in life has an end.
Must come to an end
Find comfort or peace in this inevitability.
So take some solace
A suggestion to find solace in this understanding.
In this my friend
Addressing a friend, offering consolation in mortality.
When we die
When we pass away.
Simply don't know
Uncertainty about what happens after death.
If everything ceases
Questioning if consciousness persists beyond death.
To think and grow
Wondering if thoughts and personal development cease.
We've got no control
We lack control over certain aspects of life or death.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
Repetitive melodic phrases without explicit meaning.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh
-Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh
-Ooh Oo–oo
-Walk through my parents' door
Returning to parents' home, a familiar routine.
Like I've done a thousand times or more
A repetitive action of visiting parents' house.
Feeling emotionally drained
Feeling emotionally exhausted.
And that's when I see the frames
Seeing photographs or frames that evoke emotions.
Tears well up in my eyes
Tears forming as I try to hold back goodbyes.
As I choke back my goodbyes
Struggling to bid farewell.
My world won't feel the same
Life feels different without family members.
Without the ones who share my name
The absence of family members changes the world.
