If It's Wrong
Navigating Shadows: If It's Wrong by Friends of Lizzy Unraveled
Lyrics
Don't fall away from me
Expressing a desire for the listener not to distance themselves.
I need you where you are
Stating the need for the listener's presence.
Drunk people all around
Observing the presence of intoxicated individuals in the surroundings.
We're safe here in the dark
Feeling secure and protected in the darkness.
Where I can search my head
Reflecting on self-discovery and contemplation.
Pretend this is the start
Imagining a fresh start and new beginnings.
That spinning's not my head
Suggesting a state of dizziness or confusion.
The room's got a head start
Indicating that the situation or environment is already in motion.
I know that I could use somebody
Expressing a need for companionship in challenging times.
To hold me in the dark
Desiring comfort and support during difficult moments.
Sound the alarm!
An urgent call to attention or action.
But if it's wrong, then it's wrong
Acknowledging the possibility of a wrongdoing without certainty.
I ain't ever gonna know
Acceptance of uncertainty and the inability to determine right from wrong.
You call it what you will
Open to interpretation, possibly referring to a situation falling apart.
I've watched it fall apart
Witnessing the disintegration of something significant.
Catastrophe, I fear
Expressing fear of a catastrophic event.
Is closer than we thought
Suggesting that the threat is more imminent than anticipated.
Time now to disappear
Deciding to withdraw or escape from the current situation.
Creep back the way I came
Reversing course and retracing steps.
And go back where the gods, I fear
Returning to a place where one is not recognized by the divine forces.
Don't know me by my name
Feeling unrecognized or anonymous in a divine context.
So I don't know if I should want you
Uncertainty about whether the desire for the listener is appropriate.
When something in your eyes
Noticing a signal or indication in the listener's eyes.
Sounds the alarm!
A sense of urgency triggered by a sign or warning.
You won't believe the things I'll tell you
Promising to reveal significant information or experiences.
If it's wrong, then it's wrong
Reiterating the uncertainty of the rightness or wrongness of a situation.
I ain't ever gonna know!
Embracing the idea that the truth may never be known.
Everybody's got to deal with
Acknowledging and dealing with the consequences of past actions.
The messes that we made the night before
Anticipating challenges resulting from previous night's choices.
Don't think we'll let you sleep it off today
Rejecting the possibility of easily overcoming the consequences.
You tell me that you need somebody
Advising the listener to keep their needs to themselves.
Just keep it to yourself
Emphasizing the importance of silence in certain situations.
Or sound the alarm
Reiterating the need to be alert or alarmed.
We don't have time to make a difference
Expressing a lack of time to make a meaningful impact.
We always go too far
Highlighting a tendency to go too far in actions or decisions.
So sound the alarm
Repeating the call to sound an alarm, emphasizing urgency.
Whoa, sound the alarm
Final emphasis on the need to alert or warn.
