So It Goes
Navigating Love's Labyrinth: Ghost Lion's Soothing Journey
Lyrics
Can't sit still, I'm feeling cold
Restlessness and a sense of being cold emotionally.
Got her number now we're out on the road
Having a romantic interest and going out together.
Overcome, but scared to say
Feeling overwhelmed but hesitant to express emotions.
Never one to put my heart on display, but I said
Avoiding vulnerability and not displaying emotions openly.
Hey, hey, told myself look alive
Motivating oneself to be lively and proactive.
It's time to be a man of action tonight
Embracing the idea of taking decisive action tonight.
I'm moving closer; but my stomach's in knots
Approaching someone romantically despite feeling nervous.
Don't know what love is but I like ya a lot
Uncertain about love but expressing strong liking.
So it goes
Repeating the phrase "So it goes," indicating acceptance of circumstances.
So it goes
-Try to make it home again
-So it goes
-Years go by, the fire's wanin'
Time passing, enthusiasm diminishing.
No more dreamin', gotta fit in the crowd
Abandoning dreams to conform to societal expectations.
Now our lives are automated
Life becoming routine and less fulfilling for the partner.
Said she's lonelier when I'm around, so what now
Partner feeling lonelier when the narrator is present.
Hey, hey, tell me who killed the lights
Reflecting on the loss of vitality and passion.
We used to live but now we live to survive
Shifting from living to surviving in a relationship.
We fight in circles till our circuits are shot
Engaging in repetitive conflicts until emotional exhaustion.
Don't know what love is but I know what it's not
Uncertainty about love but clarity about what it is not.
So it goes
Reiteration of accepting the flow of life, despite challenges.
So it goes
-Try to make it home again
-So it goes
-Not making this stuff up now
Acknowledging a breakup and the difficulty of going back.
Now we're breaking up now
-Not making this stuff now
-Try to make it home
-Pack my things, I guess it's over
Accepting the end of a relationship and preparing for closure.
Too many differences, too much to go back
-So what now, I guess it's over
-Dim the lights till it all fades to black
-Hey, hey, wanna go for a drive?
Suggesting a drive as a way to escape and contemplate.
We'll watch the sky burn till our moment arrives
Anticipating a moment of clarity during a significant event.
We're moving closer and again and again
Approaching the uncertain future with determination.
Don't know what love is but I know it don't end
Acknowledging uncertainty about love's nature but recognizing its continuity.
So it goes
Reaffirming the cyclical nature of life and the pursuit of returning home.
So it goes
-Try to make it home again
-So it goes
-We'll drive out to the water
Planning to seek solace by the water, symbolizing hope for reconciliation.
Head up on the coast
-Maybe then we'll make up
-Tell me when we're close
-Try to make it home now
-Maybe there's some hope
-One day when we make up
-Tell me when we're close
-
