Lyrics
Nothing can be said
Expressing the inability to articulate the situation.
And nothing can be done
Highlighting a sense of helplessness and inaction.
The worst part of all is that its only just begun
Emphasizing the early stage of a challenging experience.
I thought drugs were working
Initial belief in the efficacy of drugs for a perceived issue.
but now i'm not so certain
Expressing uncertainty and doubt regarding the effectiveness of drugs.
Look a little closer
Encouraging a closer examination of the situation.
The cracks are only painted over
Pointing out that superficial fixes only conceal underlying issues.
Just for the moment
Temporary masking of problems for a brief period.
It doesn't matter
Asserting that the current moment is of no consequence.
Cause you're here with me
Acknowledging the presence of someone in the challenging situation.
Temporarily
Highlighting the transient nature of the companionship.
He acts like he don't care
Describing a person's indifferent facade.
Cracks jokes and twists his hair
Illustrating coping mechanisms like humor and grooming.
But deep deep down I know it chokes him up
Recognizing the emotional struggle beneath the surface.
Just for the moment
Reiteration of temporary relief from problems.
It doesn't matter
Reiterating the insignificance of the current moment.
Cause you're here with me
Reaffirming the temporary nature of companionship.
Temporarily
Emphasizing the fleeting nature of the emotional support.
I just keep on thinking
Continued contemplation on the surreal nature of the situation.
That this just can't be real
Expressing disbelief in the reality of the experience.
Cause things like this don't happen
Challenging the perceived normalcy of the situation.
To you
Personalizing the disbelief, suggesting it's an unusual circumstance.
But life keeps moving forwards
Acknowledging the inevitability of time passing.
And time just marches on
Stating the relentless progression of time.
There's nothing left to do
Conveying a sense of resignation when options are exhausted.
Except walk it through with you
Committing to facing life's challenges together.
