When They Call
Echoes of Resilience: When They Call by Frank Giovetti
Lyrics
Ever fixed on it
Feeling consistently focused on it
Ever dizzied
Feeling consistently disoriented or confused
It's everything I fear
Referring to something that is a source of anxiety or dread
The Penchant
A strong inclination or liking
The Penchant to mislead
The inclination or liking to deceive or misguide
Swallows me
Metaphorically consumed or overwhelmed by the inclination to mislead
When they call
A moment of feeling overwhelmed when receiving a call
Lover Lover
Term of endearment repeated, possibly addressing a romantic partner or someone close
Well its not to get some
Clarifying that the intention is not for personal gain
Its not a thank you
Emphasizing that it's not an expression of gratitude
They got
Indicating the lack of other activities or priorities
Nothing else to do
Reiteration of the emptiness or lack of purpose in their actions
When They Call
Repeating the overwhelming feeling during a call
But pressure
The stress or demands placed on them
Oh pressure cook my attitude
Metaphorically comparing pressure to cooking their demeanor
My my my attitude
Repeating the impact of pressure on their attitude
Oh when they call
Reiterating the overwhelming feeling during a call
When they call
Further emphasis on the overwhelming feeling during a call
Oh Hey
A greeting or acknowledgment
You didn’t think you'd see my face
Expressing surprise at being encountered
You really made
Acknowledging the creation of a significant life despite imperfections
Quite a life despite your flaws
Reiteration of a well-lived life despite shortcomings
Oh Hey
A greeting or acknowledgment
Why wont you listen?
Pleading for attention or understanding
Something inside me lives on
Asserting the persistence of something within them
Seeking security
Expressing a desire for stability or assurance
An ever-after remedy
Seeking a lasting solution or cure for internal struggles
Well I
Introduction of personal desire or aspiration
I want it all
Expressing a desire for everything
But I’m never never never never never never gonna leave
Emphasizing the commitment to stay despite challenges
When they call
Repeating the overwhelming feeling during a call
Oh When they call
Reiteration of the overwhelming feeling during a call
When they call
Repeating the overwhelming feeling during a call
Oh oh When they call
-Oh Hey
A greeting or acknowledgment
You didn’t think youd see my face
Expressing surprise at being encountered
You really made
Acknowledging the creation of a significant life despite imperfections
Quite a life despite your flaws
Reiteration of a well-lived life despite shortcomings
Oh Hey
A greeting or acknowledgment
Hey
A repeated greeting or acknowledgment
Why wont you listen?
Pleading for attention or understanding, repeating the question
