Lyrics
Do you still picture us together?
Questioning if the memory of being together still lingers.
Like on the day we met, but better
Imagining a future together that surpasses the day they first met.
Nobody needs to be reminded
Highlighting that reminders are unnecessary for things already known.
Of what they already know
Emphasizing that some truths don't need repeating.
I sleep soundly knowing the world
Expressing comfort in the stability of the world, finding peace in the routine.
Is turning everywhere I go
Feeling reassured as life continues its course wherever they go.
You keep wasting all of your days
Observing someone wasting time, perhaps in regret or hesitation.
And soon enough I think you'll know
Anticipating that the person wasting time will eventually realize the consequences.
The leaves fall everywhere
Symbolizing the natural cycle of change using falling leaves.
Where you go
Emphasizing that change is inevitable, wherever the person goes.
Where you go
Reiteration for emphasis on the inevitability of change.
Any place is better
Suggesting that any place is preferable to being stuck in the current situation.
Than to be stuck in here forever
Expressing a desire to escape a situation that feels eternal.
To be locked in this room
Describing confinement in a room metaphorically built by the person.
That you built
Highlighting the room as a metaphor for a stagnant or troubled relationship.
In a house we called our own
Reflecting on the past, remembering a house that once felt like home.
I sleep soundly knowing the world
Reiterating the comfort in the predictability of the world.
Is turning everywhere I go
Reassuring oneself about the continuity of life despite personal struggles.
You keep wasting all of your days
Observing continued wastefulness of time and predicting realization.
And soon enough I think you'll know
Reiteration of the expectation of realizing the consequences of wasted time.
The leaves fall everywhere
Symbolizing change and consequences through falling leaves again.
Where you gonna go?
Prompting a question about the destination or choice of the person.
Where you gonna go?
Repeating the question to emphasize the uncertainty of the person's direction.
Where you gonna go?
Further emphasizing the uncertainty and choices ahead.
Any place is better
Restating the preference for any place over eternal confinement.
Than to be stuck in here forever
Expressing the desire to avoid being stuck in a situation indefinitely.
Than to be locked in this room
Reiterating the metaphorical room built by the person as a source of confinement.
That you built
Recalling the room built within the house that was once called home.
In the house we called our home
Affirming the connection of the room to the concept of the home that was lost.
