With Our Hands
Love's Resilience: Unveiling the Emotional Tapestry in Edie Carey's 'With Our Hands'
Lyrics
This all started with our hands
This relationship began with our actions or efforts.
Underneath a table and I couldn't concentrate
During a specific moment, likely a clandestine or secret interaction, my focus was disrupted.
I don't even think I heard that band
I might not have paid attention to the music playing, indicating my distraction.
'Cause everything in me kept saying
Internally, there was a sense of potential missed opportunities or being too late for something.
Maybe you're too late
There's an internal doubt about timing or the chance of success.
But you loved me still
You exhibited love despite visible emotional turmoil.
Anyone could see you felt broken
Your emotional state was evident to everyone, showing signs of feeling shattered.
Yeah, you loved me still
You continued to love despite the visible struggle.
Anyone could see it
Your love was apparent to anyone observing.
The best revenge is a new song
Creating something new, like music, is a potent way to move past hurt or seek revenge.
And lord knows we both had no shortage of those
Both of us have experienced numerous painful situations.
But you can only harvest heartache for so long
However, dwelling on heartache has its limits; I yearn for a safe emotional space.
It's getting to the point I just want a safe place to go
The desire for emotional refuge intensifies due to prolonged distress.
So I loved you still
Despite my own emotional turmoil, I continued to love you.
Anyone could see my heart was reeling
Others could easily perceive the turmoil in my heart.
Yeah I loved you still
Despite the visible struggle, my love for you persisted.
Anyone could see it
Others could observe my ongoing affection.
Now you say you want to be responsible
You express a desire to be responsible for your actions, possibly to prevent future regret.
You don't want to one day have to take it all back
You fear the consequences of actions that may cause regret in the future.
Do you really think that I'm that breakable?
You question if I am emotionally fragile, and you dislike that perception.
And baby you know I hate that you see me like that
You dislike the idea of me being seen as fragile by you.
Will you love me still?
I seek reassurance about your continued love despite my emotional turmoil.
Anyone could see my heart is reeling
Others can perceive the distress in my heart.
Will you love me still?
I seek reassurance from you about your enduring love, visible to others.
Anyone could see it, yeah
Others can perceive the ongoing emotional struggle and love.
