Blindfold
Unveiling Heartache: Eleven After's Poignant Farewell
Lyrics
It's time to wake up
Expressing the need to become aware or conscious
Remove this blindfold from my eyes
Desiring to remove a metaphorical blindfold, seeking clarity or understanding
It's hard to say this
Acknowledging difficulty in expressing a sentiment
It's time for me to say goodbye
Indicating a decision to part ways or end a relationship
It's times like this you feel like shit
Describing a feeling of low self-worth during challenging times
(I know) no you don't
Contrasting the previous line, suggesting that the listener may not understand the speaker's struggles
If I can't save this then what can I do
Expressing helplessness in salvaging a situation
I can't see without you here with me
Stating dependence on someone for vision or guidance
I set the table
Symbolically preparing for a meal or event
With an empty chair
Setting a table with an indication of an absence or emptiness
I set your plate down
Performing an action as if the person is present, emphasizing the sense of loss
As if you were there
Imagining the presence of the person during the ritual
It's times like this you feel like shit
Reiteration of feeling low during challenging times
(I know) no you don't
Reasserting that the listener may not understand the depth of the speaker's emotions
If I can't save this then what can I do
Emphasizing the inability to fix or save the situation
I can't see without you here with me Here with me
Reiterating the dependence on the person for clarity or support
Without you here with me
Emphasizing the absence of the person
Here with me
Repetition for emphasis, underlining the desire for the person to be present
It's times like this you feel like shit
Reiterating the emotional struggle during difficult times
(I know) no you don't
Reaffirming the potential lack of understanding from the listener
If I can't save this then what can I do
Stating the inability to resolve the situation
I can't see without you
Expressing the difficulty in seeing a way forward without the person
Here with me
Repeating the desire for the person to be present
Here with me
Reiteration for emphasis on the absence of the person
Without you, here with me
Emphasizing the longing for the person's presence
Here with me
Finalizing the repeated plea for the person to be with the speaker
