I Have a Crack
Beneath the Surface: Unveiling Hidden Emotions in 'I Have a Crack'
Lyrics
You are an iceberg it's plain to see
You possess hidden depths, like an iceberg.
The rest of you does not show
Externally, your true self is not apparent.
It scrapes along the bottom of the sea
Your true self encounters difficulties and challenges.
I want to help you it's so hard to dig deep
I desire to assist you, but it's challenging to delve deep.
Maybe that explains why you
Perhaps this difficulty is the reason why...
Talk in your sleep
...you reveal secrets involuntarily during sleep.
As we meet in the day we move our teeth
During our encounters in daylight, we articulate, but...
But still we are nowhere near underneath
...our connection remains superficial, not reaching the depths.
We share some words like scorched birds
We exchange words like wounded birds.
We disintegrate and wither away
We fall apart and fade away.
I am an iceberg it's plain to see
I, too, have hidden aspects, akin to an iceberg.
The rest of me does not show
My true self is concealed from view.
It scrapes along the bottom of the sea
Similar struggles affect my true self.
I have a crack somewhere beneath me
There is a flaw or vulnerability within me.
Maybe that explains why I can't always feel
This flaw may explain my occasional emotional numbness.
As we meet in the day we move our teeth
During our encounters in daylight, we articulate, but...
But still we are nowhere near underneath
...our connection remains superficial, not reaching the depths.
We share some words like scorched birds
We exchange words like wounded birds.
We disintegrate and wither away
We fall apart and fade away.
