Untangling Life's Threads: Jake Morley's Reflective Knots
Lyrics
It started with a thread
The journey or situation began with a simple starting point or idea.
I was trying to find the ends
The person was attempting to figure out the boundaries or limits of the situation.
But somewhere along the way
However, at some point in the process, things became complicated or confusing.
I got tangled
The person became entangled or caught up in the complexities.
I forgot what goes where
The individual lost track of the proper arrangement or order of things.
In such a muddle, me
Amidst the confusion, the person is in a state of disarray or disorder.
I know these knots do me no good
The realization that these complications or challenges are not beneficial.
Still I just cannot help myself
Despite knowing the negative impact, the person is compelled to continue.
When the threads are in my hands
The person is drawn to the entangled threads, unable to resist involvement.
Oh I just cannot help myself
Expressing the difficulty in resisting the urge when holding the threads.
When the threads are in my hands
Reiteration of the struggle to resist involvement when holding threads.
A reflex to me now
The entangling process has become second nature, almost automatic.
Loop it through and underneath
Describing the physical act of looping threads in a specific manner.
So pleasing in a certain way
Despite complications, there is a certain satisfaction in the process.
But oh, what a jumble
Reflecting on the mess or disorder created by the entanglement.
Now I can’t move ‘til they’re untied
Feeling stuck or unable to progress until the complications are resolved.
And I know one move would set this right
Recognizing that a single action could rectify the situation.
Cos all these knots do me no good
Despite the lack of benefits, there's a struggle to break free from the entanglement.
Still I just cannot help myself
Reiterating the difficulty in resisting the urge when holding the threads.
When the threads are in my hands
Expressing the ongoing internal conflict when faced with the entangled threads.
No I just cannot help myself
Reiteration of the ongoing struggle to resist involvement when holding threads.
When the threads are in my hands
Highlighting the persistent challenge of resisting the allure of the entangled threads.
