Super Glue Sorrow: Healing from Love's Adhesive Wounds
Lyrics
The tears have dried
The emotional pain has lessened over time.
Yet eyes are wide
The person is still observant and alert despite the pain fading.
Don't even think
Trying to avoid acknowledging the true impact of the situation.
That I've realized
Not yet fully comprehending the extent of the emotional damage.
The hole that's left
The void or emptiness left behind by the separation.
From the wound
Referring to the injury caused by the separation.
Where your face once
The place in their life where the person used to be closely involved.
Was super glued
Metaphorically glued in the speaker's memory or heart.
I tore you off
The speaker detached the person from their life.
And put you into my pocket
Keeping reminders of the person close, possibly emotionally.
I take you out
Bringing back memories or feelings associated with the person.
For when I just need to dock it
Referring to finding comfort or solace in memories or emotions.
I threw my heart up
The speaker emotionally released their feelings without restraint.
And never caught it
Unable to regain or control those emotions.
It's burning out
Feelings are diminishing or fading away rapidly.
And its falling like a comet
Symbolic of the emotional turmoil ending abruptly.
The tears have dried
Reiteration of emotional healing or a temporary resolution.
Yet eyes are wide
Despite the pain subsiding, the person is still vigilant.
Don't even think
Avoiding confronting the reality of the situation.
That I've realized
Still not fully understanding the depth of the emotional impact.
The hole that's left
The void or emptiness left by the separation, reiterated.
From the wound
Referencing the hurt caused by the separation, reiterated.
Where your face once
Where the person used to occupy a significant place in the speaker's life.
Was super glued
Metaphorically glued in the speaker's memory or heart, reiterated.
I sleep like shit
Difficulty in finding rest or peace due to lingering memories.
The ghost of you still haunts my head
The person's presence still affects the speaker's thoughts.
I wake up dead
Feeling emotionally drained or dead upon waking without the person.
When you're not there, I'm by myself again
Being alone exacerbates the emotional pain.
I'm at my worst
The speaker feels their situation is at its lowest.
You finished first instead
The person left or moved on before the speaker did.
And it's time to change
Realizing the need for change before it's too late.
Before I'm sleeping on my deathbed
Acknowledging the urgency to make changes to avoid regret.
Let's Go
Expression of motivation or encouragement to move forward.
La la la la la
Vocalization to fill an emotional void or express distress.
La la la la la
Reiteration of vocalization as an emotional outlet.
La la la la la
Continued expression to cope with emotional distress.
The tears have dried
Reiteration of emotional healing or a temporary resolution.
Yet eyes are wide
Despite the pain subsiding, the person is still vigilant.
Don't even think
Avoiding confronting the reality of the situation.
That I've realized
Still not fully understanding the depth of the emotional impact.
The hole that's left
The void or emptiness left by the separation, reiterated.
From the wound
Referencing the hurt caused by the separation, reiterated.
Where your face once
Where the person used to occupy a significant place in the speaker's life.
Was super glued
Metaphorically glued in the speaker's memory or heart, reiterated.
