Think I Need a Minute
Embracing Shadows: H.B. Nielsen's Reflection on Love and Loss
Lyrics
Woke up this morning with a head full of bees
Waking up with a troubled mind or anxious thoughts
Feel the storm is coming and it's coming for me
Sensing an impending difficulty or challenge in life
You've seen it growing, now the trees flee
Observing a negative change in the environment, causing distress
You've seen it growing from the passenger seat
Noticing the negative change from a passive or detached perspective
I think I need a minute
Expressing a need for a moment to process or reflect
A minute most of the time
Describing the desire for brief moments of mental respite
Put out all the fires, what happens next
Addressing the need to deal with problems or challenges
Maybe one of those things we swore we'd never do again
Contemplating the possibility of repeating past mistakes
When I saw you on the blanket with the sun on your chest
Recalling a moment of intimacy and connection
Never would have guessed that I would lose you to my myself
Expressing regret for losing a significant connection due to self-inflicted reasons
Leave that dress on the floor and come a little closer
Inviting someone to come closer in a vulnerable and intimate moment
We can say all the words but we know it's for not closure
Acknowledging that words may not provide closure in a relationship
I think I need a minute
Reiterating the need for a moment of reflection or pause
A minute most of the time
Reemphasizing the desire for brief mental respite
I think I need a minute
Repeating the expression of needing a moment to process
A minute most of the time
Reiterating the desire for brief moments of mental respite
