Temporary Feeling
Navigating Love's Ephemeral Maze: Johnny Stumpf's 'Temporary Feeling'
Lyrics
Finding a second home in my inconsistence
Finding comfort in my inconsistency, considering it a second home.
Favorite hobby ending stories before they begin
Enjoying the habit of prematurely concluding stories before they start.
Don't blame me
Asserting not to be blamed.
Rather this lack of confidence
Preferencing a lack of confidence over other traits.
You're so fond over a false projected image
Noting admiration for a false and projected image.
Rambling to the point that my jaw hurts
Speaking extensively to the point of physical discomfort.
Failing to put proper sentences together
Struggling to articulate coherent sentences.
Yet you claim you're into me and I'm just not convinced
Skeptical of claims of attraction, lacking conviction.
So I'll hide away til you come to your senses
Choosing to withdraw until the other person gains clarity.
Because I'm not here to waste anybody's time
Expressing a commitment not to waste anyone's time.
I'll run until all temporary feelings pass you by
Committing to run away until temporary emotions subside.
Where then I'll emerge
Predicting emergence after the passage of temporary feelings.
Convinced that no one got hurt
Believing no one was harmed in the process.
Even if you like me won't believe it
Highlighting skepticism, even if the other person likes them.
Why get hung up on a temporary feeling
Questioning the value of fixating on temporary emotions.
Intimidated by your picture perfect presence
Feeling overwhelmed by the seemingly perfect presence of another.
I'm convinced that your
Stating conviction about the person being the embodiment of August (symbolic of warmth or positivity).
the human embodiment of August
Mentioning hiding, possibly seeking solace under a sweatshirt.
Hiding under my sweatshirt
Expressing a preference for privacy over familiarity.
Rather no one know me better
Embracing disappearance as it makes life easier.
It makes it easier since I'm just gonna disappear
Reiterating a commitment not to waste time.
Because I'm not here to waste anybody's time
Committing to running away until temporary emotions fade.
I'll run until all temporary feelings pass you by
Anticipating emergence after the passage of temporary feelings.
Where then I'll emerge
Believing no one was harmed in the process.
Convinced that no one got hurt
Expressing skepticism about being liked, despite it.
Even if you like me won't believe it
Questioning the wisdom of fixating on temporary emotions.
Why get hung up on a temporary feeling
Repeating the refrain on avoiding attachment to temporary feelings.
(Ah, ah)
(Instrumental interlude)
(Ah-ah, Ah)
-Because I'm not here to waste anybody's time
Reiterating the commitment not to waste anyone's time.
I'll run until all temporary feelings pass you by
Committing to run away until temporary emotions subside.
Where then I'll emerge
Anticipating emergence after the passage of temporary feelings.
Convinced that no one got hurt
Believing no one was harmed in the process.
Even if you like me won't believe it
Expressing skepticism about being liked, despite it.
Why get hung up on a temporary feeling
Questioning the wisdom of fixating on temporary emotions.
