Lyrics
Not of this world
Expressing a sense of uniqueness or otherworldliness.
You’re a heavenly body
Describing the person as divine or celestial.
Are the stars yet aware of the brilliance you took with you
Wondering if the stars are aware of the brilliance the person possesses.
Angelic Girl
Referring to the person as angelic.
With a quick glance you got me
Expressing attraction or captivation with a brief look.
I lean on my pen but my pen takes issue
Encountering difficulty expressing feelings with a pen.
The words don’t exist screamed a ledger left vacant
Words seem inadequate; a ledger is empty due to the inability to express.
But I couldn’t resist so I scribbled to frame it
Despite the difficulty, attempting to capture and frame the emotions.
Yes the colors drift outside the lines
Acknowledging unconventional or free expression beyond boundaries.
I’m trying
Struggling but making an effort.
And I’m hoping my message doesn’t get lost in
Fearing the loss of the message in the process of communicating.
Translation
Emphasizing the concern of the message being lost in translation.
I’m hoping the message doesn’t get lost in
Reiterating the fear of the message getting lost, specifically in transit.
Transit
Highlighting the importance of maintaining a perfect rhythm.
Cadence pristine
Describing the person's voice as flawless.
You’re atonal perfection
Emphasizing the person's perfect pitch.
My affinity bleeds cross a broken connection
Expressing a deep emotional connection despite challenges.
I’m a slave to syntax
Feeling bound by grammatical rules.
All my punctuation missed the mark
Mentioning the failure of proper punctuation in conveying emotions.
Speechless at best where I’m known for my diction
Unable to speak adequately, contrasting with a reputation for eloquence.
Where my heart will attest
Asserting emotions through the heart despite verbal shortcomings.
Still my lips utter fiction
Speaking untruths despite genuine emotions.
Metaphor betrays me
Feeling betrayed by the use of metaphor in communication.
Underemphasis defames your spark
Downplaying the brilliance of the person.
And I’m broadcasting on all available frequencies I can find
Attempting to communicate widely and openly.
Are you tuning in
Asking if the person is paying attention.
Are you tuning in
Repeating the question to ensure connection.
I hope it doesn’t get lost
Reiterating the hope that the message won't be lost.
Doesn't get lost
Repeated emphasis on the fear of the message being lost.
Hope it doesn’t get lost
Continuing the hope that the message remains clear.
Doesn't get lost
Repeated concern about the message getting lost.
And I’m broadcasting on all frequencies
Repeating the attempt to broadcast the message widely.
