Peed In The Pool
Chasing Grace and Calm: Fanny Lumsden's Poetic Reflections
Lyrics
I grind my teeth
I am experiencing stress or frustration, possibly due to anxiety.
And I peed in the pool
I engaged in unconventional or rebellious behavior, such as urinating in the pool.
I'm more into guidelines
I prefer following general principles rather than strict regulations.
Less into rules
I am less inclined to adhere to rigid guidelines.
And I always eat
I consume food until I am overly full.
'til I'm far too full.
I tend to overeat.
We went to lunch when I
At the occurrence of a significant life event (finding a grey hair), we had a meal together.
Found my first grey hair,
I discovered my first grey hair, indicating aging.
I'm not into Sci-fi
I am not interested in science fiction.
And I know you know that
I acknowledge that you are aware that I am only pretending to care.
I'm just pretending to care,
I am not genuinely concerned about certain matters.
And I'm never sure where I'm going
I often lack clarity about my future until I reach my destination.
Until I'm there
I navigate life without a clear sense of direction until I reach my destination.
And I'm learning to be graceful
I am in the process of acquiring elegance and poise.
And I'm always chasing calm
I actively seek tranquility and peace of mind.
I keep running into door frames
I frequently encounter obstacles or challenges (door frames) instead of reaching out to you (symbolizing emotional connection).
Instead of into your arms
I face hindrances instead of embracing emotional closeness.
I never quite managed to
I struggle to conform to societal norms or expectations.
Colour inside the lines
I have difficulty staying within prescribed boundaries or rules.
And I'm always in a hurry
I am often rushed, and I have a perpetual sense of urgency.
And I never arrive anywhere on time
I am consistently late or delayed in reaching my destinations.
and I didn't know February an extra R, til I was 25.
I was unaware of the correct spelling of February with an extra 'R' until I turned 25.
But I'm learning to be graceful
I am actively working on developing gracefulness and composure.
And I'm always chasing calm
I persistently pursue a state of calm and tranquility.
I keep running into door frames
I frequently encounter obstacles or challenges (door frames) instead of reaching out to you (symbolizing emotional connection).
Instead of into your arms
I face hindrances instead of embracing emotional closeness.
And I'm learning to be graceful
I am actively working on developing gracefulness and composure.
And I'm always chasing calm
I persistently pursue a state of calm and tranquility.
And I never seem to get there
I struggle to reach a state of calm or tranquility.
But it's yet to do me much harm
Despite my struggles, the lack of calm has not caused significant harm.
Oh, well that's it,
Expressing contentment with simplicity, appreciating a beautiful sunset.
Just give me a good sunset
Expressing a preference for enjoying life's simple pleasures, like a good sunset.
And I wouldn't say no to hot chips (who would say no to hot chips)
Indicating a willingness to indulge in small pleasures, such as enjoying hot chips.
oh, well that's it,
Reiterating contentment with simplicity and a desire to listen more.
Going listen a little more
Expressing an intention to pay more attention and be more attentive.
And worry - just a little bit
Acknowledging a degree of worry or concern, albeit a small amount.
