On My Dial
Reflections of Yearning: IDLE WIVES' Poetic Tale on Life and Love
Lyrics
I'd like to see his reflection now
I wish to witness his current state or emotions.
Just a poor man's smile on a rich man's dial
Describing a smile that belongs to a less privileged person on a wealthy individual's face.
His hands so sore, clawing from his past
His hands are worn out, reflecting struggles from his past.
A love so fake yeah, no one could last
Referencing a love that is artificial and unsustainable.
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming about a life I know
Engaged in a dream about a familiar life.
But for this now, I'll have to let you go
Despite the dream, a decision to let go is necessary for the present.
Repeat it once, he says repeats it twice
Someone repeating a statement twice, resembling a two-way mirror reflecting both sides.
Like a two way mirror, reflecting on either side
Comparison to a two-way mirror, emphasizing reflection on both sides.
But his hand so sore yeah, he can't bare much more
Despite the pain, the individual can't endure more.
Over you, over me, why don't you go out and explore
Encouraging someone to explore beyond the current situation.
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming about a life I know
Reiteration of dreaming about a known life.
But for this now, I'll have to let you go
The necessity to let go for the present moment.
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming about a life I know
Repetition of the dream motif.
But for this now, I'll have to let you go
Reiterating the need to let go for the current situation.
So now I see you on my socials
Awareness of the person's presence on social media.
And hear all the whispers through the locals
Hearing rumors and gossip about the person through local channels.
Your back in town, I hear the phone call
Acknowledging the person's return to town through a phone call.
So now I know yeah, so now I'll know
Confirmation and understanding of the situation.
So now I see you on my socials
Repeat of the awareness of the person's presence on social media.
And hear all the whispers through the locals
Reiteration of hearing rumors and gossip through local sources.
Your back in town, I hear the phone call
Reconfirming the person's return through a phone call.
So then I'll know yeah, so then I'll know
Further understanding and acceptance of the situation.
So now I see you on my socials
Again noticing the person on social media.
And hear all the whispers that you told so
Hearing additional rumors that the person shared.
Yeah your back in town, I hear the phone call yeah
Acknowledging the person's return through a phone call.
