Team Player's Anthem: Navigating Love and Solitude
Lyrics
From California to London town,
Expressing a journey from California to London town.
I will hold it down,
Commitment to persevere or maintain something.
I promise so baby please don't go
Pleading with a loved one not to leave.
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Raising a philosophical question about unnoticed actions.
Does it make a sound?
Questioning the significance of one's existence when unnoticed.
And am I even here if I'm alone
Reflecting on the sense of identity when alone.
And there's nothing really I can do,
Expressing helplessness in a situation.
If you're gonna say it's over now,
Acknowledging the possibility of a relationship ending.
I'm not used to taking it from you,
Not accustomed to receiving negative outcomes from the other person.
And bringing it back to me somehow
Seeking resolution and reconciliation.
Cause I'm a lover not a fighter,
Identifying as someone who prefers love over conflict.
What's the point in life without it,
Questioning the purpose of life without love.
This world, we could run it, yeah we could run it
Expressing the potential to navigate life together with a partner.
From California to London town,
Repeating the geographical reference to emphasize commitment.
I will hold it down,
Reiterating the commitment to hold on in a relationship.
I promise so baby please don't go
Continuing to plead for the partner not to leave.
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Raising another philosophical question about unnoticed actions.
Does it make a sound?
Revisiting the theme of existential doubt when alone.
And am I even here if I'm alone
I know that you can tell that I'm afraid,
Admitting fear and discomfort in being alone.
I'm not used to being on my own,
Expressing unfamiliarity with independence.
And I've got so much more to say,
Feeling a need to communicate but hesitant to do so alone.
But I don't wanna talk to myself though
I'm not a leaver I'm a stayer,
Affirming loyalty and commitment to staying in a relationship.
Yeah you know that I'm team player,
Asserting a collaborative approach in relationships.
This world, we could take it, yeah we could take it
Expressing the potential to overcome challenges together.
From California to London town,
Reiterating the geographical span of commitment.
I will hold it down,
Reaffirming the commitment to holding on in a relationship.
I promise so baby please don't go
Pleading once again for the partner not to leave.
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Raising a repeated philosophical question about unnoticed actions.
Does it make a sound?
Reiterating existential doubt when alone.
And am I even here if I'm alone
Lalalalalalalalala, lalalalalalalalalalala,
Vocalizing with nonsensical sounds, possibly expressing emotion.
I'll lalala a hundred million songs,
Repeating vocalization with an emphasis on sharing music.
But it's sweeter when you sing along
Highlighting the joy of shared experiences, particularly in music.
And we could run it
Reiterating the potential to navigate life together.
From California to London town,
Restating commitment to hold on across geographical distances.
I will hold it down,
Reaffirming the determination to maintain a relationship.
I promise so baby please don't go
Pleading once again for the partner not to leave.
Cause if nobody hears that tree fall down,
Raising a final philosophical question about unnoticed actions.
Does it make a sound?
Reiterating existential doubt when alone.
And am I even here if I'm alone
