Embracing Solitude: A Tuesday Night's Reflection
Lyrics
It was always too easy
It was always simple
To close the door behind you as you left
To leave without hesitation
There was never a maybe
No uncertainty or indecision
A second thought that could have held you back
No reconsideration that might have stopped you
You have entered the big race
You've engaged in a major competition
Though you never felt you'd have a choice
Despite feeling devoid of alternatives
You keep up a straight face
Maintaining a composed demeanor
As another day leaves you behind
While time continues without you
You try to remember
Attempting to recall
If you ever felt another way
If any other feelings existed previously
No chance to surrender
No opportunity to give up
No chance to see the day you went astray
No chance to recognize the day you went off course
You have entered the big race
You've engaged in a major competition
Though you maybe had another choice
Although there might have been another option
You keep up a straight face
Maintaining a composed demeanor
And yet another day leaves you behind
Yet another day passes by
And then it is night
Then it becomes nighttime
It is night
It's nighttime
You fall asleep
You drift off to sleep
And hear the rain
Hearing the rain while alone
You are all alone
Isolated on a Tuesday night
On a tuesday night
One day you accepted
At some point, you embraced
The smell of instant coffee and regret
The scent of instant coffee combined with remorse
One day you relented
One day you yielded
Thinking of the times you never had
Reflecting on missed opportunities
And then it is night
Then it becomes nighttime again
It is night
It's nighttime
You fall asleep
You drift off to sleep
And hear the rain
Hearing the rain
You fall asleep
You drift off to sleep
And hear the rain
Hearing the rain
You fall asleep
You drift off to sleep
And hear the rain
Hearing the rain
You are all alone
Isolated on a Tuesday night
On a tuesday night
