Lyrics
Well, the stakes of the game seemed fine
Reflecting on the acceptable risks in a situation
Until you lost after this time
Acknowledging a loss after an attempt
Has to make you cry
Recognizing the emotional impact, leading to tears
But you don't and you don't know why
Perplexed about the absence of tears despite emotions
Trying not to solve this
Choosing not to address a problem
Doesn't mean it's not that bad
Despite avoidance, acknowledging the severity of the situation
And everyone gets through the night
Assurance that everyone manages to endure the night
And everyone wakes up alright
Positivity about overcoming challenges in the morning
And the fear you feel will pass
Reassurance that fear is transient
Then a calmness that will last
Anticipating a lasting calmness after the fear subsides
We will learn to drift off fast
Expressing the ability to adapt quickly to challenges
Another nowhere lullaby
Introduction of the concept of a repetitive, unproductive lullaby
You can rest or you can try
Choice between relaxation or attempting something
And this waste, it shines in every way
Highlighting the radiance of a seemingly wasteful situation
Yeah, this waste, it shines in every way
Reiteration of the brilliance within perceived waste
You make me laugh every single day
Expressing the joy brought by someone every day
And you hardly make me cry
Notable infrequency of causing tears despite laughter
Made fifteen years fly by
Reflecting on the swift passage of fifteen years
Still here and I don't know why
Puzzlement about the enduring connection over time
Has it been that long?
Reflecting on the perception of elapsed time
Where's the time and the table gone?
Questioning the disappearance of specific moments
Hope it's longer than that now
Expressing hope for an extended, meaningful present
Don't forget we don't know how
Reminder of uncertainty about the future
And everyone gets feeling down
Universal acknowledgment of feeling low at times
Everybody understands
Shared understanding among people
We're all doing what we can
Recognition of everyone's efforts within their capacity
Another nowhere lullaby
Reiteration of the recurring, unproductive lullaby
You can rest or you can try
Choice between relaxation or engaging in an effort
And this waste, it shines in every way
Emphasizing the brilliance within perceived waste once again
Yeah, this waste, it shines in every way
Reaffirming the inherent shine within seemingly wasted moments
