Lyrics
Give me something I haven't seen
Seeking novelty and new experiences
Give me the red light turning green
Desiring a change or a shift in direction
Give me the words but not the page
Wanting the essence without unnecessary details
Give me it all
Yearning for complete fulfillment
Give me the time but not an age
Requesting time without the burden of age
Give me a look but not the rage
Desiring a gaze without intense anger
Give me the feel for where I'll go
Seeking a sense of direction and destination
Give me it all
Yearning for total fulfillment
Give me the way it could have been
Longing for an alternate path or outcome
Give me the ghost that's on the screen
Yearning for a ghostly presence or memory
Give me the way but not the means
Desiring a way without the undesirable methods
Give me it all
Seeking complete fulfillment once again
Give me something I haven't seen
Reiteration of the desire for novelty
Give me the red light turning green
Repetition of the desire for change
Give me the words but not the page
Repeating the desire for essence over details
Give me it all
Reiterating the quest for complete fulfillment
I called you up
Expressing attempts at communication
Three times last night
Highlighting persistent efforts to connect
Running through the streets
Physical struggle, possibly metaphorical
Bloody, from a fist fight
Symbolic aftermath of a conflict
Keep you warm
Offering warmth and comfort
Keep you there
Desire to keep someone close
Wanna keep you all
Expressing the wish for complete possession
See you there, wanna see you some day
Anticipation of a future meeting
As you look back, I'm pulling away
Acknowledging a distancing effect
You caught the bus and I caught the train
Physical separation through different modes of transport
All that remains are words in the rain
Reduced connection, only words remaining
Ooooh, oooh, oooo oooooh
Expressing emotional intensity
Ooooh, oooh, oooo oooooh
-Give me the shade of a thunder cloud
Desiring obscurity or cover from emotional storms
Give me a good bye said out loud
Wishing for a clear farewell
Give me the day with no memories
Longing for a day without painful memories
Give me it all
Reiteration of the desire for complete fulfillment
I know you could be here with me
Acknowledging the potential for shared experiences
By the rain and the palm of the valley
Referencing natural elements as witnesses
But you're there by the tube stop in the freezing rain
Highlighting physical separation in harsh conditions
See you there, wanna see you some day
Anticipation of future reunion
As you look back, I'm pulling away
Acknowledging the distance growing
You caught the bus and I caught the train
Physical separation through different modes of transport
All that remains are words in the rain, rain
Emphasizing the fading impact of words in difficult times
Ooooh, oooh, oooo oooooh
Reiteration of emotional intensity
Ooooh, oooh, oooo oooooh
-So solo, I see you there
Emphasizing individuality and solitude
You fall like a fifty weight
Metaphorical fall and impact
The time goes
Time passing without immediate resolution
I'll be right there
Promising presence in the future
I feel, I feel there's a fork in the road
Sensing a crucial decision point ahead
Oh woah woah
Expressing emotional intensity and yearning
Oh woah woah
