Lyrics
It's simple but I hesitate to ask
Expressing a desire to ask a simple question but feeling hesitant.
A second of your time to tell you how
Requesting a brief moment of the listener's time to share something.
I came to be so hard on all of us
Reflecting on being tough or critical toward everyone, including oneself.
By turning every meaning inside out
Describing a habit of distorting or changing the meaning of things.
I know it's a shame
Acknowledging a sense of shame and a tendency to shift blame.
All my shifting the blame
Admitting to deflecting responsibility onto others.
It feels like the love
Suggesting that love and anger feel indistinguishable or interconnected.
And the anger are one
Highlighting the blurred line between love and anger.
And the same
Emphasizing the unity or similarity of love and anger.
Whatever you want
Indicating a willingness to provide whatever the listener desires.
I'm giving you one more thing
Promising an additional offering that can bring about a significant change.
That'll turn your world around
Suggesting that the additional offering will have a transformative impact.
Since our meanings have gone
Acknowledging that meanings between the speaker and the listener have changed or disappeared.
You'll still be the one who understands
Assuring the listener that they will still be understood despite the loss of shared meanings.
Last night I had
Describing a profound realization or insight experienced the previous night.
A once in a life understanding of all
Expressing the rarity of a deep understanding that occurred once in a lifetime.
I'd tell you but it doesn't mean a thing now
Conveying that the speaker knows the understanding won't matter now.
Can't you take what I've done
Asking if the listener can accept and find value in the speaker's past actions.
Make it work for someone?
Encouraging the listener to make the speaker's past actions beneficial for someone else.
