Blindfold
Unveiling the Emotional Symphony: Holly McLachlan's Blindfold
Lyrics
I have everything and nothing
I possess both abundance and emptiness in my life.
Music keeps me crying
Music evokes strong emotions, making me cry.
Keeps my nose a-running
The emotional impact of music causes my nose to run.
Strumming no better than silence
Playing music is not more comforting than silence.
Nothing keeps me quiet
Nothing can keep me from expressing myself.
No one beckons me
No one is calling me or inviting me.
Each time I think I'm out it pulls me back again
Despite thinking I've moved on, I'm drawn back into a situation repeatedly.
That special blindfold ever since I was ten
There's a particular blindfold, a metaphorical barrier, since childhood.
Each night while the day is dropping
During the night, when the day is ending, contemplation occurs.
I think about stopping
Considering stopping or changing my path.
No one's stopping me
No external force is preventing me.
I lie back, hurt myself so subtly
I recline and subtly inflict pain upon myself.
It is not so gently
The self-harm is not gentle or kind.
That I speak to thee
I communicate with someone in a way that hurts.
Each time I think I'm out it pulls me back again
Despite attempts to move forward, I'm pulled back again.
That special blindfold ever since I was ten
There's a persistent blindfold, a hindrance since childhood.
Each time I think I've grown I'm strong and wise and tall
Even when I feel I've matured and become strong, setbacks still hurt.
But it hurts just as bad every time I fall
The pain of falling remains intense every time.
