Place In The Dark
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Depths of Longing in 'Place In The Dark'
Lyrics
if you find your mind's gone
If you find that your mind is lost or troubled.
and tomorrow's dream is over
When the dreams of tomorrow have come to an end.
the sweetest little thing that i could ever do
Expressing a desire to do something meaningful and sweet.
would be to keep your place in the dark
Suggesting that a comforting act is to maintain secrecy or remain in the unknown.
hold your head in my hands
Offering emotional support by physically holding someone's head.
let your tears wash away
Encouraging the release of emotions through tears.
the lines and the lies
Acknowledging the presence of both physical and verbal deception over the years.
all the years we've seen our love fade
Reflecting on the fading of love over time.
don't tell me the truth
Advising against revealing painful truths.
i don't want to hear
Expressing a reluctance to hear difficult truths.
they say that's what the silence is for
Exploring the purpose of silence in dealing with uncomfortable realities.
into the shadows you disappear
Describing a retreat into the shadows, possibly symbolizing withdrawal or disappearance.
the starlight scatters
Questioning the reality of someone's presence or existence under the starlight.
were you ever here?
Raising doubt about whether the person was truly there.
these images are taking me in too deep
Feeling overwhelmed by vivid memories or images.
where it's darker now than it's ever been
Emphasizing a deepening darkness in the current state compared to the past.
i've been waiting for such a long time
Expressing a prolonged anticipation for love to return.
for love to come home
Living in a world of imagination or illusion.
living in a fantasy
Noting the growth of memories over time.
and the memories grow
Acknowledging the strain on a relationship and its subsequent breakdown.
i've forced it and broke it
Having experienced and damaged the relationship, possibly through force.
seen it all through your lens
Viewing past experiences through the perspective or lens of the other person.
but i don't know i ever knew what i was up against
Expressing uncertainty about understanding the challenges faced.
so if you find your mind's gone
Repeating the theme of a troubled mind and the end of dreams.
and tomorrow's dream is over
Reiterating the idea of a lost future.
the sweetest little thing that you could ever do
Suggesting an action that could bring comfort in the darkness.
would be to keep my place in the dark
Asking for the preservation of one's place in the unknown or hidden.
