Lyrics
I'm sitting in the window of my favorite little spot
Sitting in a favorite spot, likely a reflective or contemplative space.
Breathing in, trying not to let my mind escape my thoughts
Struggling to keep thoughts from wandering while breathing in.
My focus isn't letting my drink my tea while it's still hot
Focused on drinking tea before it cools down, implying a sense of urgency.
Breathing in, trying not to think my trying is for naught
Trying not to feel discouraged despite doubts about the effort.
Make up your mind, let it take hold
Suggesting a need for decisiveness and commitment.
Try to look tough so you can be alone
Putting up a tough facade to maintain independence.
It's all just fine, you will stay cool
Assuring that everything is okay, projecting confidence.
Standing your ground doesn't stop the fools
Standing firm, but acknowledging that it doesn't deter foolish behavior.
Too shy to keep you off
Feeling too shy to approach someone of interest.
Talking is hard when you feel like a trading card
Communication difficulties when feeling like an object to be traded.
Don't mean to make you scoff
Not intending to mock, but wanting to explore different opportunities.
Wanting to find a different place a different time
Desiring change, seeking a different place and time.
I wish it was hard to see
Expressing a wish for obscurity or difficulty in understanding.
I never thought I'd ever be something someone would want to see
Surprised at becoming something worth noticing.
Wanting all the wrong things
Craving things that may not be beneficial or appropriate.
Been waiting here so long it seems this is the most I'll ever be
Implying a prolonged period of waiting with little progress.
Laying underneath the dancing lights of leaves above
Immersed under the beauty of nature, possibly pondering life.
Cherry blossom moments are supposed to feel like love
Expecting moments akin to the blissful feeling of love.
Heavy like a feather fully covered in syrup
Feeling burdened or serious despite the lightness of a feather.
Thinking of the times he clipped my wings and left me stuck
Reflecting on a past experience where someone restricted freedom.
Another time I would let go
Recalling a past willingness to let go of something.
Try to agree so you won't be alone
Agreeing with others to avoid loneliness.
It isn't fine, ready to fold
Not fine and ready to give in or surrender.
Look in his eyes and say it's time to go
Conveying a decisive moment to leave, looking someone in the eyes.
It's time to go
Repeated emphasis on the need to leave or move on.
It's time to go
-It's time to go
-It's time to go
-Too shy to keep you off
Reiteration of feeling too shy to approach someone.
Talking is hard when you feel like a trading card
Repeating the challenge of communication when feeling like a tradable object.
Don't mean to make you scoff
Reiterating the lack of intention to mock, but a desire for change.
Wanting to find a different place a different time
Continued longing for a different place and time.
I wish it was hard to see
Reiterating a wish for difficulty in understanding or visibility.
I never thought I'd ever be something someone would want to see
Reflecting on the unexpected transformation into something noticed.
Wanting all the wrong things
Desiring things that may not lead to positive outcomes.
Been waiting here so long it seems this is the most I'll ever be
Expressing a sense of stagnation and acceptance of a current state.
(Too shy, don't be)
A plea or encouragement to overcome shyness.
Feel like a trading card
Repeating the feeling of being like a tradable object, possibly vulnerable.
Feel like a trading card
