Echoes of Unforgotten Love: Jordanisdead's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
Shadows glitch and disappear
Shadows glitching and disappearing, possibly reflecting instability or uncertainty.
My skin rips and lives in fear
Personal distress and fear expressed through the metaphor of skin ripping.
A program of encoding
Reference to a program of encoding, suggesting a structured existence or upbringing.
One code preventing me from floating
Feeling restricted, unable to "float" or be free due to a certain code or rule.
At the cost of my self loathing
Experiencing self-loathing as a consequence of adhering to the mentioned code.
In the kitchen were tip toeing
Tip-toeing in the kitchen, perhaps symbolizing cautiousness or secrecy.
Like children, we’re reborn
A metaphorical rebirth, a renewal of hope or positive change.
A hope arrives that wasn’t there before
The arrival of hope that was previously absent.
Mom and dad had used to scorn
Parents' disapproval in the past (scorn) contrasted with the newfound hope.
Wearing sleeves, our skin was torn
Physical scars (wearing sleeves, skin torn) as a reflection of past struggles.
Living in a narrative, we wrote
Living within a constructed narrative as an escape from emotional pain.
Just to escape her loving ghost
Seeking refuge from a haunting memory or relationship.
Just to breathe in light in this eclipse
Striving to find light and create a sanctuary for love in a dark situation.
Build a sanctuary for our love to live
Building a place for love to thrive, despite not fully understanding it.
A love we didn’t know, craft a broken home
Unawareness of love, crafting a broken home, growing up in isolation.
We grew to be alone
Growing up alone, a consequence of the challenging circumstances.
This was everything i ever wanted i can’t let it go
An acknowledgment that what was desired is now difficult to let go.
You were older, guess your departure was not preventable
Recognizing the inevitability of someone older departing.
Camps and fires and tree houses
Nostalgia for childhood dreams involving camps, fires, and treehouses.
Childhood dreams we barely knew about this
Realization that childhood dreams were not fully understood at the time.
Our innocence was ignorance, a prison left us hopeless
Innocence was a form of ignorance, leading to a sense of hopelessness.
Didn’t know what hope is, so we found it in an opus
Finding hope in art (opus) due to a lack of understanding in the real world.
We had yet to comprehend, a world we could pretend
Not fully comprehending the world but creating a pretend one.
A world that existed beyond the words they may have meant
The existence of a world beyond words, possibly unspoken emotions.
The words they never said, just two kids they neglect
Words left unsaid, neglecting two kids who long for attention.
Weak and can’t defend, the demons in their bed
Weakened and defenseless, facing internal demons in a vulnerable state.
A world of our creation, enhancement of enchantment
A world created together, an enhancement of enchantment, possibly an escape.
A phantom lives between us, i can feel it where i’m standing
A phantom presence symbolizing a lingering connection or memory.
You had left, i lost my breath
The departure of someone significant, leading to breathlessness.
I ran away, and no attempts to reconnect
Running away and failing to reconnect with the departed person.
But i’m here now, begging for your memory
