Lyrics
I'm falling apart quite beautifully
I am experiencing a beautiful breakdown or emotional unraveling.
I look at the stars
I contemplate the stars in the sky.
Wonder which one you might be
I wonder which star represents you.
I could have been more
I had the potential for more.
But I was so afraid
Fear held me back from realizing my full potential.
And all of my words
My spoken words lacked the depth or significance.
Just couldn't hold enough weight
My words couldn't carry the weight of my emotions or thoughts.
La, la, la
Repetition of "La, la, la" suggests a sense of evasion or avoiding deeper emotions.
La, la, la
-I wish I could reach
Desire to transcend celestial boundaries.
Past the stars and past the moon
Expressing a longing to reach beyond the stars and moon.
I just want to know
Seeking knowledge of the distance between the speaker and the person addressed.
How far from me to you?
The speaker desires to understand the emotional or physical distance.
I wish that we wrote
Expressing a wish that the two shared their experiences in writing.
Oh God, I was so proud
Regret for feeling overly proud or arrogant.
It's just the words in my throat
Difficulty expressing oneself verbally.
I could never get them out
Struggling to articulate feelings verbally.
La, la, la
Repetition of "La, la, la" continues the theme of avoidance or masking emotions.
La, la, la
-I see you now
The speaker perceives the presence of the person in various elements.
In every wind and word
The person is observed in nature and spoken words.
You finally got your feet off the ground
The person has achieved freedom and independence.
Now you're free as a bird
Metaphorical expression of liberation, being as free as a bird.
Wildflowers in half bloom
Wildflowers in half bloom symbolize incomplete or unresolved situations. The speaker doesn't blame the person for this.
Dull colors paint the room
-How could I ever blame you?
-Wildflowers in half bloom
Repetition of the idea of wildflowers in half bloom and the absence of blame.
Dull colors paint the room
-How could I ever blame you?
