Over Before It Begins
Lost Echoes: Unveiling the Hidden Struggle in John Nolan's Masterpiece
Lyrics
All those people that I've lost are still alive
All the people I've lost are still alive in memory.
But somewhere out of site, burying themselves
They are hidden or dealing with their own issues internally.
A voice turns on inside that says, You have to make it right
An internal voice urges to rectify or make amends.
There must be something you can say, if you try
Seeking a way to express oneself to make things right.
Make it clever, make it count
Striving to be intelligent and impactful.
But when I say the words out loud
Despite efforts, realization of the futility.
I know it's over
Acknowledgment that it's already ended.
It's over before it begins
The end is foreseen before starting.
I'm here to do what I think is best
Intentions based on personal convictions.
I say to myself curled up in bed
Self-reassurance in a vulnerable state.
I'll find some phrases
Determination to find suitable expressions.
Find some melodies
Searching for melodies to convey emotions.
Find some kind of truth
Seeking a genuine message or honesty.
I'll find a way to reach you
Planning to bridge the emotional gap.
I'll make it clever, make it count
Striving for eloquence and significance.
But when I say the words out loud
Despite efforts, recognition of inevitable conclusion.
I know it's over
Acceptance that it's concluded before initiating.
It's over before it begins
Reiteration of the realization of predestined closure.
And in the end this is only for me
The entire process is a personal journey.
The only way it's ever been
Confirmation that it has always been a personal endeavor.
The only way it could be
Reaffirmation of the nature of the situation.
And in the end this is only for me
Emphasizing the solitary essence of the experience.
The only way it's ever been
Reiteration of the singular nature of the journey.
The only way it could be
Affirmation of the solitary path the journey follows.
