Something New
Yearning for Change: Indigo Waves' 'Something New' Reflection
Lyrics
What can I say except I've been happier
Expressing a state of increased happiness.
That's not your fault my dear
Assuring someone that their actions are not the cause of the speaker's current emotional state.
What can I say I miss when times were simpler
Nostalgically longing for a simpler time in the past.
What can I say about it now
Pondering what can be said about the current situation.
Now days keep passing by
Highlighting the continuous passage of time in the present.
And I don't know when I'll feel that way again
Expressing uncertainty about when a particular emotional state will be experienced again.
I've wanted this all my life
Stating a long-held desire or goal that has been achieved.
Now that it's here, I want something new again
Despite achieving a long-desired goal, expressing a desire for something new.
What can I say, I'm disappointed in myself
Admitting personal disappointment and self-reflection.
How did I end up like this
Pondering the current undesirable state and questioning how it was reached.
I'm so afraid that whatever happens next
Expressing fear about the future and the potential lack of change in the current situation.
Won't change a thing, won't change a thing
Emphasizing a concern that the future won't bring any improvement.
Now days keep passing by
Reiterating the continuous passage of time in the present.
And I don't know when I'll feel that way again
Expressing uncertainty about the future emotional state, similar to line 6.
I've wanted this all my life
Reiterating the fulfillment of a lifelong desire.
Now that it's here, I want something new again
Despite fulfillment, expressing a desire for something new, echoing line 8.
Now days keep passing by
Repeating the theme of the continuous passage of time.
And I don't know when I'll feel that way again
Reiterating uncertainty about the future emotional state.
I've wanted this all my life
Reiterating the fulfillment of a lifelong desire.
Now that it's here, I want something new again
Despite fulfillment, expressing a desire for something new, echoing lines 8 and 16.
