Confess
Confessing Desires Under Northern Lights
Lyrics
I was stronger that night
I felt emotionally resilient on that particular night
I wanted to go alone
I desired solitude and independence
The rain was coming down
The rain was falling
And nobody could leave the state around
Weather conditions made it difficult for anyone to leave the area
I said things I need like
I expressed my needs, mentioning Alaska and bears
Alaska and the bears
Referencing the wilderness and challenges
You knew you couldn't fight
You recognized the futility of resistance
Swimming underneath the Northern Kights
Metaphorical mention of swimming beneath the Northern Lights
You didn't know it
You were unaware, but I had control over the situation
But I had you in the palm of my hand
I held power or influence over you
Palm of my hand
Repetition of having control
I confess I needed you there
I admit that I needed your presence
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
I reflected on every shared memory that night
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
I lack the courage to continue without you
When storm breaks through I'll be standing there
In challenging times, I'll be there for you
Waiting for you
Reiteration of waiting for you
Waiting for you
-Waiting for you
-I can dream or realise
I can either dream or face reality
Head ? Southern tip of Africa
Reference to the southern tip of Africa, possibly indicating distance
And put up all the fences that you like
The futility of trying to separate or protect
But I can see you feeling
I can perceive your emotions
On your own there
You are alone in your feelings
You're on your own
-I didn't know it
I wasn't aware; I thought I had control
I thought I had you in the palm of my hand
Repetition of having control
Palm of my hand
-I confess I needed you there
I confess the need for your presence
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
Reflecting on shared memories again
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
Lacking the courage to move on without you
When storm breaks through I'll be standing there
I'll be there for you during difficult times
Waiting for you
Repetition of waiting for you and a plea to be loved
Take me down love me in the avenue
-It'll never be what you wanted to
Recognizing that it may not meet your expectations
Was it like this with her
Comparing the current situation with a past one
Is it everything you dreamed of?
Questioning if the present aligns with your dreams
I, I, I thought I had you in the palm of my hand
Repetition of thinking having control
Palm of my hand
-I confess I needed you there
I confess the need for your presence
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
Reflecting on shared memories again
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
Lacking the courage to move on without you
When storm breaks through I'll be standing there
I'll be there for you during difficult times
Waiting for you
Repetition of waiting for you
Waiting for you
-Waiting for you
-Are you ready, tell me when you want to go
Asking for readiness and consent to move forward
Are you ready, tell me when you want to go
