Cold Moves.
Embracing Solitude: Gabriel Duran's Melancholy Journey in 'Cold Moves'
Lyrics
I share my lows with nobody
I prefer to keep my struggles and difficulties to myself.
Plus it's getting cold out, I can't find my words now
The weather is turning cold, and I'm having difficulty expressing myself.
Lucky that my own wanna save me
I'm fortunate that my own people want to help and support me.
You see me as a stone, am I dead weight?
Others perceive me as emotionless or burdensome. Am I a heavy burden?
Baby, I'm no good on my lonely
I struggle when I'm alone; being by myself is challenging.
Tell me I'm the one, I don't see the sun
Despite being told I'm the chosen one, I feel disconnected and in darkness.
Now time don't feel the same to me
Time doesn't feel the same anymore; there's a change in perception.
I don't see the point in things, no more
I don't see the purpose in things anymore; a sense of hopelessness prevails.
So can I feel my pain now?
Am I allowed to acknowledge and experience my own pain now?
You tell me all the time that I'm letting myself go
You frequently mention that I'm neglecting myself; is that true?
Can I let you in now?
Can I open up to you now?
To tell you all the reasons why I'm losing all control
To explain why I'm losing control over my emotions.
Good on my lone, good on my lone
I'm comfortable and self-sufficient when I'm alone.
Good on my, good on my lone, good on my lonely
I'm good at being by myself, content in my loneliness.
Good on my lone, good on my lone
Reiterating my ability to be alone and be okay with it.
Good on my, good on my lone, good on my lonely
Emphasizing self-sufficiency and comfort in solitude.
See I say one time, two time, three time
Repetition of the idea of saying something once, twice, thrice.
Never wanna see that face again, I'm looking back in a daze again
Not wanting to encounter a particular face again, feeling disoriented.
I retract all the phrases said, I don't love you, damn
Retracting previously spoken words, questioning the absence of love.
Maybe that's what's wrong with me?
Wondering if over-promising is a flaw or the cause of issues.
Over-promise till the death of me, but if I can sit and write a song for you
Despite flaws, expressing the ability to create something special for someone.
Why you acting like it's cold for me?
Questioning why someone is treating the situation as if it's difficult for me.
I see myself with a little bit of hair up on my chest one day
Imagining a future self with maturity and experience.
Spin in in circles, that's the only way
Using circular motions as a metaphor for coping, dealing with pain.
I'ma ever fade this pain away, baby
Planning to overcome pain through repetitive actions and distractions.
So tell me what you want and I'ma see it through, now it's done
Willing to fulfill desires and promises, indicating completion.
Liquor smoke and things that I never use, now they're fun
Engaging in activities and substances previously avoided for enjoyment.
Actin' out in public, like my last name don't mean a thing
Publicly behaving in a way that contradicts the significance of one's name.
Cause' lately I've been feeling like it's true
Feeling a disconnect lately, questioning the authenticity of feelings.
So can I feel my pain now?
Repeating the desire to acknowledge and experience personal pain.
You tell me all the time that I'm letting myself go
Reiteration of being told that I'm neglecting myself.
Can I let you in now?
Asking permission to open up about the reasons for losing control.
To tell you all the reasons why I'm losing all control
Expressing the need to share reasons for emotional instability.
Good on my lone, good on my lone
Reassuring self-sufficiency and contentment in being alone.
Good on my, good on my lone, good on my lonely
Emphasizing proficiency in handling solitude and loneliness.
Good on my lone, good on my lone
Repetition of the idea of being good at being alone.
Good on my, good on my lone, good on my lonely
Stressing the ability to thrive in solitude and enjoy one's own company.
