Chain of Tears
Unraveling Heartache: Seeking Closure in Chains of Tears
Lyrics
How do you say goodbye forever?
Questioning the manner of bidding farewell indefinitely.
Sincerely seeking advice, mmm
Seeking genuine guidance or counsel.
One day at a time, sure is clever
Approaching life by handling it one day at a time, which is a smart approach.
There ain't nothing I wouldn't try, oh
Willingness to attempt anything to resolve a situation.
Don't matter how long
The duration doesn't matter.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Emphasizing the importance of discerning right from wrong.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Reinforcing the concept that what's not right is automatically wrong.
A chain of tears
A continuous flow of tears.
Leads me back to you
These tears lead the singer back to a person or situation.
A chain of tears
Repetition of the idea of tears leading to someone.
Painted black and blue
Describing the tears as colored black and blue, signifying pain and hurt.
I was hoping there was some pill I could take
Desire for a solution, even a metaphorical pill, to erase memories.
Wash away down the wishing well, mmm-mmm
Wishing for a way to make memories vanish like throwing something down a well.
Some procedure I could undertake
Willingness to undergo a procedure to forget.
To have your memory erased, oh
The yearning to erase the memory associated with the person.
Don't matter how long
Reiteration that the passage of time doesn't alter what's right or wrong.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Highlighting the importance of distinguishing between right and wrong.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Reaffirming the concept that what's not right is automatically wrong.
If it ain't cooked, it's raw
An analogy suggesting that if something isn't prepared properly, it's imperfect.
And if it ain't on
An ambiguous line without a clear standalone meaning.
A chain of tears
Repeated mention of the tear-induced connection to a person or situation.
Leads me back to you
Further emphasis on tears leading back to someone.
A chain of tears
Repetition of the idea of tears being associated with pain and hurt.
Painted black and blue
Reiterating the imagery of tears being colored black and blue, symbolizing pain.
A chain of tears
Continuation of the theme of tears leading back to someone or something.
Ooh
An interjection expressing emotional pain or emphasis.
A chain of tears
Reiteration of the recurring idea of tears leading back to a person or situation.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Reemphasizing the importance of distinguishing right from wrong.
If it ain't mint, it's flawed
Comparing imperfection to something that isn't mint, indicating a flaw.
If it ain't right
A repetition of the importance of identifying what's right.
Don't paint those red flags white
Advising not to ignore warning signs or flaws in a situation.
If it ain't right, it's wrong
Reaffirmation that what's not right is inherently wrong.
