Cold Eyes
Unraveling Dreams: The Melancholy Tale of 'Cold Eyes' by Franky Lee
Lyrics
We had a good thing going, with all our dreams fullfilled we ruled
We had a successful relationship or endeavor, achieving our dreams and dominating.
We owned the world that we were conquering
We possessed the world we were conquering, indicating a high level of control and influence.
A team that no one could touch, a force that could have changed the scene
We formed an unbeatable team with the potential to bring about significant change.
But something big got stuck in this machine
Despite our success, a major obstacle or problem hindered our progress.
Don't let it go
An urging plea not to let go of the situation or relationship.
We had everything we wanted
We had everything we desired and were content.
All these years just down the drain?
Questioning whether the years invested were wasted.
We were everything we wanted to be
We achieved the aspirations we set out for.
It's not in vain!
Emphasizing that the efforts were not in vain; there's still value in the experience.
We just can't flee
Despite challenges, it's not easy to walk away or abandon the situation.
We started to move slower, and everything we tried to do
Our progress started slowing down, and our actions resulted in confusion and chaos.
Turned into a mess that grew
Efforts to accomplish things turned into a growing and uncontrollable mess.
So there was something growing, yeah something wrong from the start
There was an underlying issue or mistake from the beginning that contributed to the deterioration.
Just before we came apart
The situation started falling apart just before a noticeable separation.
All these years just down the drain?
Reiterating the question of whether the invested years were wasted.
We were everything we wanted to be
We achieved the desired state or identity.
It's not in vain!
Emphasizing again that the efforts were not in vain; there's still value in the experience.
All these years just down the drain?
Repeating the question about the value of the years invested.
We were everything we wanted to be
We achieved the desired state or identity.
It's not in vain!
Emphasizing again that the efforts were not in vain; there's still value in the experience.
Why can't we agree?
Expressing frustration or confusion about the inability to reach an agreement.
Try again now just a little bit more
Encouraging another attempt with a bit more effort to overcome the challenges.
You're just slowing things down
Highlighting that someone is impeding progress and causing delays.
Let's get back to where it was before
A desire to return to a previous, more successful state and avoid failure.
I don't want us to drown
Anxiety about the possibility of failure or deterioration, expressing a desire to avoid it.
