Bellwoods Reverie: Love Lost in City Sounds
Lyrics
Meet me in the bellwoods where no one knows us
Invitation to meet in a secluded place, away from public knowledge.
It's only been a year so text me when you're here
Request to be informed upon arrival after a year.
Street sounds great when change gets too hard
Urban environment is appealing during tough times.
But now I'm upset back smoking in my front yard
Expressing distress, resorting to smoking in the front yard.
Cause I was thinking about you
Recurring thoughts and emotions about a person.
Thinking about you
-Mmm
-I'm only an hour away but it's not something I could say
Being physically close but unable to express feelings directly.
Did you tell all your friends that it just didn't work out
Speculation about sharing relationship status with friends.
King street sounds great when change gets too hard
Reiteration of the appeal of a street during difficult times.
For once I'll stay to text you meet me in the park
Commitment to stay and communicate by suggesting a meeting in the park.
Cause I was thinking about you
Continued contemplation about the person, possibly romantic.
Thinking about you
-Mmm
-How come I hated everyone I thought I ever loved and
Reflecting on past relationships with negative emotions.
It's a hell of a drug when you don't know stop it
Describing the difficulty of overcoming a strong emotional attachment.
Maybe you don't but I remember our fall through
Recalling a failed relationship and its impact.
I remember it all I at least I think I do
Uncertain memory of past events and emotions.
Threw your last pack of cigarettes then you found them
Symbolic act of discarding cigarettes, possibly associated with change.
Hypocritical now when I take time out of my own day to go get my own pack
Self-awareness of hypocrisy in current behavior.
We said too much now we can't take it back
Regret about sharing too much information in the past.
Falling under not over
Embracing difficulties rather than overcoming them.
Is this what they call closure
Questioning if the current state is considered closure.
Don't wanna think don't wanna speak
Reluctance to think and communicate, possibly due to past experiences.
Years ago I peaked
Reflection on past achievements, suggesting a decline in personal growth.
When I knew myself better than that
Nostalgia for a time when self-awareness was higher.
Can't take it back
Acknowledgment that certain actions or words cannot be undone.
Can't take it back
Reiteration of the irreversible nature of past events.
