A Little Time
Yearning for Closure: A Tale of Heartache and Healing
Lyrics
Two boxes full of you
Two containers filled with memories or belongings associated with you
And labeled with your name
Clearly marked with your name
Scared to go digging through
Afraid to delve into those containers, avoiding revisiting emotions tied to you
I don't want to feel the same
Avoidance of experiencing the same feelings again
As I did before I went crazy
Recalling a state of emotional turmoil that led to a separation
And split us into two
The emotional distress caused a division between "us"
I've got people everywhere
Support from people around, assuring mental stability
They tell me I'm ok
Receiving affirmations of being fine
I even met this new girl just the other day
Encountering a new person but unable to let go of past feelings
She's so perfect so I guess I'm crazy
Feeling drawn to the perfection of someone new, yet still attached to the past
I can't get over you
Unable to move on from the previous relationship
I try to fight but I give in
Attempting resistance but ultimately yielding to emotions tied to the past
I guess you win
Admitting defeat in resisting the pull of past memories
I keep going back to you again
Continuously returning to thoughts or the person from the past
I tell myself that I'll be fine
Self-reassurance of eventual healing with time
Just give it time
Belief that time is the key to resolving emotional turmoil
All we need is just a little time
Expressing the need for a small duration of time to heal
I make it through the night
Coping through the night by ignoring emotional signals
Ignoring all the signs
Intentionally disregarding signs pointing towards moving on
I swore the other day I'd leave it all behind
A pledge made recently to leave behind past emotions
Standing forward with my new design
Moving ahead with a new perspective or plan
To get me back in line
Trying to realign oneself
The days are longer now
Days seem prolonged, struggling with a disguised appearance
I wear a good disguise
Maintaining a facade despite internal turmoil
But I still see you every time I close my eyes
Continuously haunted by memories of the past
Dream of days before I went crazy
Longing for the period before emotional distress caused separation
And split us into two
Referencing the split caused by emotional turmoil
I try to fight but I give in
Struggling against emotions but succumbing to them
I guess you win
Accepting defeat in the struggle against past emotions
I keep going back to you again
Continually drawn back to thoughts or the person from the past
I tell myself that I'll be fine
Self-reassurance of eventual healing with time (repeated)
Just give it time
Belief that time is the key to resolving emotional turmoil (repeated)
All we need is just a little time
Expressing the need for a small duration of time to heal (repeated)
A little time
A small period required to regain mental clarity
For me to find my mind
Searching for personal stability and clarity of thought
It got lost along the way
Realizing a loss of mental stability along the way
A little time
Acknowledging the need for realization after your departure
For me to realize
Acknowledging the need for realization after your departure (repeated)
That your gone away
Acknowledging your absence and its impact
I try to fight but I give in
Continued struggle against past emotions with inevitable defeat
You always win
Admitting the persistent triumph of past emotions
I keep going back to you again
Continuously returning to thoughts or the person from the past (repeated)
I tell myself that I'll be fine just give it time
Self-reassurance of eventual healing with time (repeated)
All we need is just a little time
Reiteration of the belief that time will resolve emotional turmoil (repeated)
