Lyrics
Lotta things left unsaid
Lotta things left unexpressed or not communicated.
Lotta birthday cards and presents
Many birthday cards and gifts received but not acknowledged.
Never opened, never read
Gifts and cards remain unopened and unread.
Until they're not
Until a certain point where they are no longer relevant.
And by then it's too late for gratitude
At that point, it's too late to show appreciation.
For what I got
For whatever I have received or experienced.
Too late to pretend you cared
Unable to pretend or act like you cared.
Two latex gloves around my neck
A metaphorical reference to a feeling of suffocation or restraint.
Your surgery prepared
Your readiness for a surgical procedure.
Until it's not
Until a specific moment when it becomes irrelevant.
And by then its's too late to disagree
Too late to argue or have a different opinion.
I guess I lost
Acceptance of defeat or loss.
If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
Trick of the light
An illusion or optical effect.
Even when I held
Even when I embraced or hugged you tightly.
You tight
-
Two weeks of feeling down
A period of feeling low or depressed for two weeks.
Too weak to tell my friends I'm struggling
Too feeble or powerless to confide in friends about my struggles.
Have them come around
Not being able to seek support or comfort from friends.
Until I'm not
Until a point where it becomes irrelevant to speak up.
And by then it's too late to say a thing
It's too late to express or communicate.
Just laugh it off
To dismiss or make light of a situation.
It's fine to tell a lie
It's acceptable to deceive or not tell the truth.
It's finders keepers with the truth
Truth is held onto selfishly or without sharing.
Always, for you and I
Always, for both of us.
Until it's not
Until a point when the truth is no longer concealed.
The tears in your eyes betray the fact your cheeks are getting hot
Obvious signs of crying that contradict attempts to appear composed.
If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
Trick of the light
An illusion or optical effect.
Even when I held
Even when I embraced or hugged you tightly.
You tight

If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
If you see me
If you perceive me...
I'm not here
I'm absent or not fully present.
Trick of the light
An illusion or optical effect.
Even when I held
Even when I embraced or hugged you tightly.
You tight
