What You Will
Navigating Life's Maze: Reflections on Time, Love, and Change
Lyrics
Thinking of the past I feel my life
Reflecting on the past, I sense the passage of my life
Is slipping by at such a speed
Time is slipping away rapidly
Things I knew have gone and those I loved
Things I was familiar with are now gone, and those I cared for
I look for granted and deceived
I took for granted and was deceived
Call me anything you will
Feel free to label me however you want
I'll hide behind a purple pill
I'll use substances (symbolized by a purple pill) to escape
And though it seems I'm laughing still
Despite appearances, I may be hiding my pain and sorrow
I'm crying
Contrary to appearances, I am actually in a state of sadness
Looking from my window I see winter
Observing the winter scene from my window
Almost too bare to believe
The landscape is nearly bare, almost unbelievable
People change with seasons
People undergo changes corresponding to the seasons
And I wonder if it's my turn to receive
I wonder if it's my turn to experience change
But they avoid the things I ask
Others avoid addressing my inquiries or alter their persona
Or quickly change their style of mask
Swiftly changing their outward appearance or behavior
The faith I had is fading fast
The trust I once had is disappearing rapidly
I'm dying
I am experiencing a metaphorical or emotional death
Seems to me the only way to be
It appears that adopting a pragmatic, businesslike approach is the only way
Is like a businessman
Suggests adopting a businessman's mindset
And have bad colours round my head
Using negative coping mechanisms (bad colors) to find solace and comfort
Getting drunk to find some peace of mind and consolation
Turning to alcohol to seek peace of mind and consolation
But there's still the problem of what happens when I'm dead
Despite these efforts, the unresolved issue of death remains
