Hotel
Reflections in a Dark Hotel: Unveiling Life's Crossroads
Lyrics
Start it
Initiating or commencing something
And start it off innocent
Starting with innocence or purity
It started
Referring to the beginning of a situation
You know it started off innocent
Emphasizing the innocence of the start
I've been thinking of that dark hotel room
Reflecting on a specific dark hotel room
Where we ended up accidentally
Recalling an accidental encounter in that room
I started speaking like a poet in the bathroom
Describing a change in communication style in the bathroom
Started thinking kind of existentially
Engaging in existential thoughts
But I don't want to help you ruin your life
Declining involvement in ruining someone's life
I won't help you hate yourself tonight
Committing not to contribute to self-hate
I've been thinking of that dark hotel room
Reiterating thoughts about the dark hotel room
How you finally got the nerve to say to me
Recalling a pivotal conversation in the room
How you felt so much for so long
Noting the expression of deep, enduring feelings
But thought it would have fleeted eventually
Acknowledging a belief that feelings would fade
But I don't want to help you ruin your life
Reiterating the unwillingness to contribute to life ruin
No, I won't make you hate yourself tonight
Affirming the refusal to induce self-hate
Not tonight
Emphasizing the current moment of non-interference
If we held on a little bit longer
Reflecting on the possibility of holding on longer
All the things we might have been
Musing on the potential outcomes if efforts persisted
If we had been a little bit more diligent
Contemplating the impact of increased diligence
But now we don't even speak.
Noting the current lack of communication
