Spotless Mind
Wistful Reflections: Spotless Mind's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
sometimes i really wish my pops was here
Sometimes, I deeply desire the presence of my father.
don't think i took the time to deal with it
I didn't take the necessary time to cope with the emotions related to his absence.
at the time see i was not aware
During that period, I lacked awareness of the impact.
so long after i'd be feeling something real wicked
Much later, I experienced intense negative emotions.
if i could make a wish it'd be to have him back
If I could make a wish, it would be to have him alive again.
when the heart breaks, they don't put a cast on that
Heartbreaks are not physically treated like other injuries.
even if it's only for moment and then back to black
Even if moments of relief occur, they are short-lived, and darkness returns.
but when I'm in this state of mind I'm knowing that's a trap
In this state of mind, I recognize the danger but struggle to escape.
cause i was doing shows instead of being by his side
I prioritized performing in shows over being with my father.
now he's gone,
Now he is gone.
times i feel like i'm the reason that he died
At times, I feel responsible for his death.
and even though i know that whole shit
Even though logically it doesn't make sense.
doesn't make no sense
I couldn't say goodbye, leading to prolonged tension.
i didn't get to say goodbye and thus i stay so tense
it's been over seven years since the girl left
More than seven years have passed since the girl left.
don't think I ever took the time to self reflect
I never took the time for self-reflection.
I ain't sober in the clear cause the world world just
Remaining sober doesn't clear the world's downward spiral causing stress.
spirals down the drain to the point you can't help but stress
Despite not wanting her back, an internal void remains.
and i don't think i wanna have her back
but what you call it when inside you lays a massive gap
The term for the emptiness within despite external success.
cause when you focus on your tag teaming back to back
Intense focus on joint efforts leaves an individual vulnerable and defeated.
the solo mission leave you in submission flat on mat
Individual pursuits may result in submission and defeat.
it was better than a game
mix of pleasure with the pain
A mix of pleasure and pain was better than a game.
was inevitable
Inevitably, both individuals were changed.
both of us would never be the same
A disastrous situation, causing damage to any potential gains.
what a train
wreck, stepping on whatever we could gain
Our actions led to a wreck, destroying anything we could have gained.
and the same mess got us where there's nothing left but shame
Similar mistakes resulted in nothing but shame.
One wish, what to make it upon
Expressing a desire for one wish, contemplating its significance.
what cliches can you place in a song
Considering cliches to include in a song.
what makes it so wrong
Questioning what makes a situation wrong.
the time and what we wasted it on
Reflecting on time and what was wasted.
wouldn't even get fixed after waving a wand
No magical solution can fix the aftermath of poor choices.
