Lyrics

Who’d have thought the day would fade away so fast?

Expressing surprise at how quickly the day is ending.

Another morning for my sun

Another day begins for the speaker, symbolized by their "sun."

Rattle of my bones telling me the time

Feeling the passage of time through physical sensations in the body.

They’re all going places I don’t need to find

Observing others going places that the speaker has no interest in exploring.


Better not be here when I turn around

Expressing a desire for someone not to be present when the speaker turns around.

Trying to find myself some time

Searching for personal space and time for self-discovery.

Better not be here when I turn around

Reiterating the wish for the person to be gone upon turning around.

Trying to find myself some time

Continuing the pursuit of personal time and space for self-reflection.


The summer storm is done and washed away the sand

Describing the aftermath of a summer storm and its cleansing effect on the environment.

Didn’t need a dinghy, I’m on land

Expressing a sense of security and being on stable ground without needing external support.

Haven’t heard from you in almost a year

Acknowledging a lack of communication from someone important for an extended period.

Keep on going, I’ll still be here

Determined to continue forward despite the absence of the person.


Better not be here when I turn around

Repeating the desire for the person not to be present upon turning around.

Trying to find myself some time

Persisting in the quest for personal time and self-discovery.

Better not be here when I turn around

Emphasizing the importance of the person being absent when the speaker turns around.

Trying to find myself some time

Continuing the pursuit of personal space and time for self-reflection.


Better not be here when I turn around

Reiterating the desire for the person not to be present upon turning around.

Trying to find myself some time

Persisting in the quest for personal time and self-discovery.

Better not be here when I turn around

Emphasizing the importance of the person being absent when the speaker turns around.

Trying to find myself some time

Continuing the pursuit of personal space and time for self-reflection.
