Stitching Memories: Crafting Homemade Constellations of Unspoken Words
Lyrics
We write down all the things we'll never say
We articulate thoughts we'll never vocalize
Sign and date them all in sparkly ink
Documenting and marking them with fanciful ink
We don't know if we're really living
Uncertainty about truly experiencing life
Four ships unmoored so when we meet again
Metaphor for disconnected relationships
You better come with a needle and thread
Prepare for reconciliation and healing
Close the door and sit on my bed
Creating an intimate space for connection
We'll sew our homemade constellation
Building something personal and enduring together
And we won't have to say goodbye again
Avoiding future goodbyes through this bond
And when I can't remember your faces
Difficulty recalling faces, but not memories
I'll remember where our constellation is
Retaining a mental link to shared moments
So take a deep breath and let it go
Letting go of worries or troubles
Cause I'll always be there you know
Promising constant support and presence
You better come with a needle and thread
Repeated readiness for fixing relationships
Close the door and sit on my bed
Creating a space for intimate conversations
We'll sew our homemade constellation
Continuing the process of building closeness
And we won't have to say goodbye
Emphasizing avoidance of parting ways
A single line of thread
Symbolic representation of their connection
From one corner to the next
Describing the formation of their bond
Our own constellation
Stressing the uniqueness of their relationship
Cause stars don't get rewritten
Implying permanence in shared experiences
Unless you write them yourself
Encouraging personal agency in relationships
Well
Transitional word, hinting at upcoming insight
You better come with a needle and thread
Reiteration of readiness to mend connections
Close the door and sit on my bed
Recreating a space for shared moments
We'll sew our homemade constellation
Continuing the process of bonding
And we won't have to say goodbye
Emphasizing the intent to avoid farewells
You better come with a needle and thread (Oh Oh)
Repetition for emphasis and readiness
Close the door and sit on my bed (Oh Oh)
Recreating a comforting environment
We'll sew our homemade constellation (Oh)
Reiteration of building something lasting
And we won't have to say goodbye again
Final emphasis on avoiding goodbyes
