Lyrics
After this i'm coming through
Expressing a determination to face the consequences of actions or decisions.
With something new,
Introducing something novel or different.
Just to return anything I stole
Committing to rectify any wrongs or mistakes and return what was taken.
From you, and this will bleed
Suggesting emotional pain or vulnerability due to doubt, with bleeding symbolizing emotional turmoil.
My doubt. when you saw the beauty
Describing a moment when the beauty witnessed instills fear in the observer.
It scared you right through me,
Implying that the observed beauty causes discomfort or unease.
But you needn't walk away.
Assuring that there's no need for the observer to leave; the speaker communicates through talking.
I just talk this way.
Explaining a tendency to communicate in a particular way without intending harm or offense.
And I think you'll find me
Suggesting that the speaker is done with consuming alcoholic drinks.
Quite through with several drinks.
Reflecting on the unintentional lending of something irreplaceable.
Never meant to lend anything
Acknowledging an inability to detach from a situation or relationship.
I couldn't leave, and i've seen
Recalling witnessing the reserved or cautious side of the listener.
You shy to your reckless side.
Noting a dislike for the consequences of recovering what was lost.
The slight is that you hate
Pointing out a tendency to despise what is regained.
What you retrieve. to collapse
Encouraging facing challenges rather than retreating, despite the risk of collapse.
Before retreat, you're pulling
Observing the listener holding back in their dreams or aspirations.
Punches in your dreams.
Metaphorically contrasting personalities, with one being clear and the other endless.
You're the cloudless sky,
Establishing the speaker as someone who will rest for the night.
I'm the endless night,
Conveying an enduring period of contemplation.
And i'll go to bed now,
Expressing a reflective thought about potential improvements or missed opportunities.
But i'll stay up thinking
Expressing a sense of regret or reflection about not staying awake longer.
“could have been better,
Anticipating a future moment when effort is no longer made to be found.
Coulda/shoulda stayed up longer.”
Highlighting a phase where the speaker's presence is neglected without an attempt to reconnect.
And then just comes the day
Describing a time when the listener no longer tries to find the speaker.
When you don't even try
Noticing a change in preferences, where what was once liked is now disliked.
To find me, when you're
Addressing the listener's return to town without acknowledging the speaker.
Back in town and you don't even
Pointing out a contradiction between stated preferences and actual actions.
Like what you say you like.
Expressing a disappointment or discrepancy in the listener's behavior.
