Chastain Lately
Chastain Lately: Navigating Life's Lonely Streets
Lyrics
Ain't it funny how a city can become a stage
A city can become a platform or setting for events.
Learning two sets of lines for a one man play
Learning different roles for a solo performance.
Chastain lately just ain't the same
Recently, Chastain (a place or person) doesn't feel the same.
I don't think i can bear to be there again
The speaker struggles to endure returning there.
Driving from us to get back to myself
Leaving a location to rediscover oneself.
But i would turn around if you say something else
Open to changing direction if prompted by someone else.
I'm living without you
Repetition emphasizes living without someone.
I'm living without you
-I'm living without you
-Living without you
-I'm so sorry that the road took me away
Expressing regret for being away due to the road.
Those winter nights often times
Winter nights led to recurring mistakes.
Had me making the same mistakes
Reflecting on repeating errors during those nights.
And chastain don't feel so close today
Feeling distant from Chastain currently.
(But) i'd rather feel something real even if
Prefer experiencing genuine emotions despite pain.
It's paindriving from us to get back to myself
Reiteration of leaving to find oneself.
But i would turn around if you say something else
Willing to change direction based on another's words.
I'm living without you
Repeated emphasis on living without someone.
I'm living without you
-I'm living without you
-Living without you
-If this is really moving on, then i'll keep moving if you keep moving
Committing to moving forward if the other person does.
Cause i don't wanna let my thoughts lead me blindly, chase me nightly
Unwillingness to let thoughts control and disturb the speaker.
I wish that i could tell you all the
Desire to express thoughts and feelings to someone.
Things i'm thinking, my heart's sinkin'
Feeling deep emotions, but the other person doesn't reach out.
But you never call
No communication received from the other person.
I guess this is all
Acceptance of the situation as it is.
I'm living without you
Repeated emphasis on living without someone.
I'm living without you
-I'm living without you
-Living without you
