Lyrics

The edge is at your feet, call out

The critical moment is in front of you, make a call or express yourself.

Your bed's made as you sleep

Your bed is prepared for sleep, suggesting a sense of routine and normalcy.

But inside you're somewhere else

Despite the external appearance of being in bed, internally, your mind is elsewhere or preoccupied.


You said you were coming by

You promised to visit or meet.

Tonight, tonight

Emphasis on the immediacy of the planned meeting, possibly highlighting anticipation or excitement.

Like back when we were talking every night

Recalling a time when communication was frequent and consistent.

You said you were coming by

Reiteration of the commitment to visit.

It's alright, it's alright

Reassurance or acceptance of the situation.

I'm just gonna call another night

In response to the unfulfilled commitment, deciding to wait for another opportunity.


The spring came with the heat, cold feet in the park

Describing a season (spring) with contrasting feelings - warmth (heat) and hesitation (cold feet).

The words I'd always speak, I'm beat

Expressing fatigue or defeat in communicating certain words or feelings.

It was an easy lie

Reflecting on a lie that was easy to tell, possibly indicating a lack of sincerity or honesty.


You said you were coming by

Repetition of the intention to visit, emphasizing the significance of the event.

Tonight, tonight

A nostalgic reference to a time when communication was more regular and meaningful.

Like back when we were talking every night

Reiteration of the past communication pattern, highlighting its importance.

You said you were coming by

Restating the intention to visit, suggesting persistence or commitment.

It's alright, it's alright

Acceptance or reassurance regarding the unfulfilled commitment.

I'm just gonna call another night

Deciding to postpone the expectation and wait for another opportunity.


It's alright, Kolya

An enigmatic closing line, possibly referring to a person named Kolya, leaving room for interpretation.
