Here
Navigating Loss: Emotions at Dawn
Lyrics
You wait for the tears to fall but they won't
You anticipate crying, but the tears don't come.
You think you should know what to say but you don't
You feel like you should have the right words to say, but you're unable to find them.
Here at the break of day
At the beginning of the day.
The world moving on its way
The world continues its course and progression.
Without her
The world moves forward without the presence of the person in question.
You're sitting there staring into the distance
You're deeply lost in thought, seemingly resisting something.
Like you're putting up some kind of resistance
You appear to be putting up a form of resistance, perhaps against accepting a reality.
But you barely see the dawn
You're not fully aware of the new day dawning.
It's like this river that you're on
Life feels like a river, a journey that you're currently navigating.
Here where the sorrows flow
At this point where sorrows are prominent.
And all you will never know about her
You're facing the unknown aspects of the person you're missing.
Here
The current situation or emotional state.
You're here
You are present, but perhaps emotionally distant or overwhelmed.
The city waking up off in the distance
The city is waking up in the distance.
They're all working on some other existence
Others are engaged in their lives, pursuing different paths.
But you don't quite seem to care
You seem indifferent to the activities around you.
It's like you know they're not going anywhere
You recognize that others are not going anywhere significant.
Here where the sorrows flow
At this point where sorrows persist.
Here where the questions grow
At this point where unanswered questions accumulate.
And all you will never know about her
Facing the unknown and undiscovered aspects of the person you miss.
You wait for the tears to fall but they won't
Reiteration of waiting for tears that do not come.
You think you should know what to say but you don't
Reiteration of feeling inadequate in expressing emotions verbally.
Here at the break of dawn
Again, referring to the beginning of the day.
The world moving on
Life continues to move forward without the person you're missing.
Without her
Highlighting the absence of the person in the ongoing world.
