Feels Like October
Emotional Autumn: A Tale of Unexpected Seasons
Lyrics
We sat in fields of lavender
We shared a moment in peaceful surroundings, evoking a sense of tranquility.
On a beautiful sunny evening
The setting was a delightful evening with favorable weather.
It was hard to focus, I noticed
It was challenging to concentrate, and the speaker observed a lack of affection from the other person.
You didn't kiss me
The absence of a kiss from the other person was notable and possibly significant.
We walked along the river
A shift to a colder atmosphere as they walked by the river.
It just started to get cold
The weather changed, and a feeling of imprisonment emerged.
I never felt like a prisoner
The speaker never felt confined, but the other person never felt like a comfortable home.
But you never felt like home
You felt like October
The other person symbolically represents the month of October, implying a particular feeling or mood.
Why does it feel like October
Questioning the reason behind the association of the person with the emotions of October.
Hmm
You're always so intentional
Describing the other person as consistently purposeful or deliberate.
Like black coffee in the morning
Comparing the person to black coffee in the morning, suggesting strength and clarity.
You're like a game of chess to me, I'm guessing
Viewing the person as a strategic challenge, akin to a chess game.
Which piece will leave me warring
Anticipating which action or decision from the person will lead to conflict.
I wish I'd seen it sooner (You left me guessing and wanting more)
Expressing a desire to have understood the situation earlier, emphasizing uncertainty and longing.
But that's not how this one goes
Acknowledging that the unfolding events deviate from a typical narrative.
From far away you're beautiful
Recognizing beauty from a distance, cautioning against getting too close.
But it's best not to get too close
You felt like October
Reiterating the emotional association of the person with October.
Oh
Why does it feel like October
Questioning the persisting feeling of October in the emotional landscape.
Hmm
You felt like October
-Oh
-Why does it feel like October
-Hmm
-And oh that was months ago
Reflecting on a past experience, emphasizing the enduring nature of emotional pain.
It feels like yesterday, it's that type of pain
Highlighting the intensity of emotional pain, feeling as if the event occurred recently.
And oh why does it feel like nothing's changed
Questioning why there seems to be no change in the emotional state despite the passage of time.
I'm stuck in fields of lavender
Returning to the imagery of lavender fields, suggesting a recurrence of emotional experiences.
On a beautiful sunny evening
Recreating the setting of a beautiful evening but with a hint of bitterness or projection.
The clouds seem to whisper, they're bitter
Suggesting that the clouds convey a negative emotion, possibly reflecting the speaker's emotions.
Or maybe I'm projecting
Contemplating whether the bitterness is an external projection or an internal emotional state.
It feels like October
Reiterating the emotional connection with October, questioning its persistence.
Oh
Why does it feel like October
-Hmm
