Lyrics
Speak up dear, I can't hear you if you mumble
Encouragement to speak clearly, expressing difficulty in understanding if mumbled.
I look at you through tired, lifeless eyes
Observation of the listener through eyes that convey fatigue and lifelessness.
The strangest feeling that I'm about to be humbled
Anticipation of a humbling experience, a strange feeling about what is to come.
Well take a seat love, i'm not that surprised
Invitation to sit down with a hint of unsurprised resignation.
Because what goes up must fall
Reflection on the inevitability of a downfall.
Should've seen that coming
Acknowledgment of a foreseeable event that wasn't anticipated.
But when I gave you all?
Questioning the reciprocation of giving everything.
I gave it all clean - now go on running
Assertion of giving everything sincerely, now facing the consequence of running away.
Promise me you'll never ever be lonely
Seeking assurance of never experiencing loneliness.
Promise me you'll never ever be scared
Seeking assurance of never feeling fear.
You know what they say about promises made to be broken?
Questioning the validity of promises, hinting at skepticism.
Well don't believe them, girl, it's all in your head
Dismissing the notion that promises are meant to be broken, attributing it to imagination.
I'd like to think you're a wrong I could make again
Expressing a desire to believe in the possibility of correcting a mistake.
but it's not in me to say that out loud
Inability to vocalize the desire due to internal constraints.
Well I hope that you're happy, I hope that you're fine where you're at
Wishing the other person happiness and acceptance of the situation.
There's no shame in love, I'm holding my head up
Affirmation of maintaining dignity in love despite the challenges.
There's the morning sun
Noticing the morning sun, a symbol of hope or a new beginning.
Peeking through my windows
Sunlight entering through windows, possibly indicating exposure of vulnerabilities.
All my seams undone
Feeling exposed and vulnerable, with emotional seams coming undone.
Here I am I've come home running
Returning home with a sense of urgency or desperation.
Promise me you'll never ever be lonely
Reiteration of the desire for the other person to never feel lonely.
Promise me you'll never ever be scared
Reiteration of the desire for the other person to never feel scared.
Tell me that it's all gonna work out
Request for assurance that everything will eventually work out.
That all of these voices, they're just in my head
Recognition of inner struggles, questioning the reality of disturbing voices.
Promise me you'll never ever be lonely
Repetition of the plea to never experience loneliness.
Promise me you'll never ever be scared again
Repetition of the plea to never feel fear again.
Tell me that it's all gonna work out
Request for confirmation that everything will eventually be resolved positively.
All of these voices, they're all going to
Acknowledgment of internal voices fading away, possibly suggesting inner peace.
Fade to black
Expression of a conclusion, where everything fades to black, possibly symbolizing an end.
