Cantonese Dream: Navigating Love's Complexities in Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
These days, I'm the wrong side of the mirror
Expressing a sense of being on the wrong side of understanding or perception.
I'm a nook
Describing oneself as a small, secluded place or corner.
But I caught a feeling or two
Acknowledging the experience of having emotions.
A feeling for you
Specifically having feelings for someone.
So I'll grin and bear
Enduring difficulties with a positive attitude.
Pink slip skip trip dip and I'm out
Listing actions of leaving or escaping, possibly from a situation.
Fine, I won't say a thing (I won't say a thing)
Committing to silence and not expressing thoughts.
You won't hear a peep out of me I swear
Emphasizing the commitment to silence and assurance of no disturbance.
I know that you're wrong this time
Asserting a belief in the other person's wrongdoing.
And that's just fine
Accepting the situation as it is without confrontation.
I won't say a thing (I won't say a thing)
Reiterating the commitment to silence despite disagreement.
You won't hear a peep out of me I swear
Restating the commitment to silence and acceptance of the disagreement.
I know that you're wrong this time
Acknowledging the awareness of the other person's mistake without confrontation.
That's just fine
Expressing contentment with the acceptance of the mistake.
In your eyes
Highlighting the importance of the person in the speaker's eyes and the persistence of time.
In your eyes
-Time wont pass you by
-Pass you by
-Pass you by
Emphasizing the concept that time won't pass in certain situations.
Time won't pass
-When it makes no sense at all
Questioning the rationality or coherence of a situation and a person's actions.
You make no sense at all
-How can you look in my eye
Expressing discomfort and avoidance of direct interaction, using metaphorical language.
When I'm shook when I try
-Copy and paste you in right now and crowd it out
-Speak to me when I'm blindfolded I don't wanna see your sounds
-I've been more than mindful, I've been your disciple
Indicating loyalty and commitment over a period, despite challenges.
I've been here for seven days
-Brush it off and turn away
-Best things come to those who wait
Encouraging patience and suggesting the benefits of waiting.
Slip and overcompensate
-Hold your breath and look away
-I've been here for seven days
Reiterating themes of patience, resilience, and avoiding confrontation.
Brush it off and turn away
-Best things come to those who wait
-Slip and overcompensate
-Hold your breath and look away
-You got feelings I got feelings I've been feeling sad
Describing emotional struggles, distance, and inner demons, and expressing a sense of isolation.
I've been spinning yarns for miles, you've been keeping track
-feeling a distance from your smile and I notice that, that
-You got demons I don't see them I don't see them much
-I've been floating for a while I've been losing touch
-Feeling a distance from your smile I don't come out much
-I've been staying in a while I've been losing touch
-You got demons I don't see them I've been feeling sad
-I've been spinning yarns a while, I've been losing track
-Feeling a distance from your smile, you don't know bout that
-We got better days ahead, but I've been sitting back
Optimistic anticipation of better days in the future.
