Black and Blue
Shades of Heartache: Ilan Blustin's Black and Blue Story
Lyrics
I've got a feeling
I am experiencing a certain emotion or intuition.
And I've got a woman on my mind
I am thinking about a woman.
But she aint really mine it's just my fantasy
The woman is not actually mine; she exists in my fantasies.
I've been growing up
I have been maturing or evolving.
I've been living on my own
I have been living independently.
I could take the Greyhound home
I have the option to take the Greyhound bus home.
But where might that place be
Uncertainty about the destination of my home.
I never find the perfect words to use
I struggle to find the perfect words.
All I ever see is black and blue
All I perceive or experience is negativity (black and blue).
Come tomorrow
Looking forward to the next day, embracing whatever comes my way.
Come whatever comes my way
Accepting and facing challenges or events.
Till there's nothing left to say except my last goodbyes
Expressing farewells when there is nothing more to say.
I'll be leaving
I will be departing.
I'll be leaving this here town
I will be leaving the current location or situation.
And you won't see me come around
There will be no return; I won't come back.
I'm gone for good this time
I am permanently leaving this time.
I woke up at the wrong end of the fuse
I woke up in a problematic or explosive situation.
And the consequences left me black and blue
Facing the repercussions, resulting in physical and emotional pain (black and blue).
I wish I was dreaming
Expressing a desire that the current situation is not real.
I wish I held you in my gaze
Wishing to have held someone in a close, affectionate look.
But you died a thousand ways before I got to you
The person has experienced various hardships before I could reach them.
When everything that kills you kills me too
Shared suffering or challenges that affect both me and the person.
My heart's a thousand shades of black and blue
My heart is deeply affected, showing emotional pain (black and blue).
My heart's a thousand shades of black and blue
Continuing the theme of emotional distress in different aspects of the heart.
