Navigating Uncharted Emotions: Deep Fried Oreos by Everett Tea
Lyrics
Staring out a window without a care in the world
The persona is gazing out of a window, feeling unconcerned about the surroundings.
I wouldn't think you'd notice but I'm not sure anymore
They doubt whether someone else would notice their current state of mind.
So breathe in breathe out let it all come crashing out
Encouraging a release of emotions by taking deep breaths, possibly to deal with inner turmoil.
'Cause I don't know what you need
Expressing uncertainty about understanding the needs of the person they're addressing.
Tell me, tell me everything that you see
Requesting detailed communication about everything the other person perceives.
'Cause I don't know where you've gone
Expressing a lack of knowledge about the whereabouts or emotional state of the other person.
So stay awake, let me down easy
Asking the other person to stay alert and make it easier for them to be let down or disappointed gently.
Everything hasn't been dreamy
Highlighting that things have not been ideal or perfect.
The stress in my head or the twitch in my neck
Referencing stress in the persona's head and physical tension (twitch) in their neck, indicating distress.
Tell me again so I don't forget to breathe
Asking for repetition to ensure they remember to maintain composure and breathe.
Where are we going now? Anywhere but here
Expressing a desire to move away from the current situation to any other place.
Everyday feels the same but I don't know what to change
Feeling stuck in a monotonous routine without clarity on what needs to change.
So I'll try and try again and hope for a door to open
Continuing to make efforts and hoping for an opportunity or solution to emerge.
In your direction
Expressing hope for progress or change in the direction influenced by the addressed person.
Oh, you'll see you'll see everything that I'll be
Assuring the other person that they will witness and understand the persona's growth or development.
Before you leave
A request made before the person leaves, indicating a plea to be understood or heard.
So stay awake, and let me down easy
Reiterating the request to stay alert and handle any forthcoming disappointment gently.
Everything hasn't been dreamy
Reemphasizing that circumstances haven't been ideal or perfect.
The stress in my head or the twitch in my neck
Reiterating the presence of stress and physical tension, seeking reassurance to remember to stay composed.
Tell me again so I don't forget to breathe
Requesting repetition to remember the essential act of breathing amidst stress.
