Deciphering Silent Burdens: Leila Dandan's Reflection on Lost Connections
Lyrics
My phone went black
Encountered a technical issue with the phone.
I tossed it back
Dismissed or threw the phone away.
And I lost track of what happened at all
Became unaware or lost track of events.
It couldn't be
Doubted the situation due to conflicting observations.
Cause all I'd see
Only witnessed one instance of a call received.
Was the one time this week you called
Felt disappointed by infrequent communication.
Silent boulders
Feeling burdened or overwhelmed by silence.
I can't breathe
Experiencing difficulty in breathing metaphorically due to pressure.
On my shoulders
Metaphorically carrying a heavy emotional weight.
What should you mean to me
Questioning the significance or importance of someone.
I can't count on one hand all the friends I lost today
Lost several friendships in a short span of time.
It was fine
Initially, the situation seemed acceptable.
We were friends for a time
Once friends, but they drifted apart.
But it seems they went away
Friends gradually disappeared or distanced themselves.
Silent burdens
Feeling overwhelmed by hidden or unspoken burdens.
I can't breathe
Experiencing breathing difficulties due to pressure or stress.
Toss and turn
Restless and uncertain if the situation is real or imaginary.
Is this just a dream
Questioning the reality of the circumstances.
I can't hear the warnings you gave
Unable to heed warnings given by someone.
Promised I wouldn't make the same mistake
Made a promise to avoid repeating a mistake.
Cryptic symbols
Seeing mysterious or unclear symbols.
Lines and shapes
Perceiving shapes and lines without comprehensible meaning.
Words are void when meaning escapes
Words lose significance when their meaning is elusive.
Simple scribbles nothing more
Simple drawings or marks lacking deeper understanding.
They don't make sense
Unable to find meaning in the symbols.
What were they for
Questioning the purpose or intent behind the symbols.
Cryptic symbols
Reiteration of encountering cryptic symbols.
Lines and shapes
Perceiving shapes and lines without comprehensible meaning.
Words are void when meaning escapes
Words lose significance when their meaning is elusive.
Stupid stains, I wipe them clean
Removing marks or stains but still lacking understanding.
I still don't know
Despite efforts, unable to comprehend.
What you should mean
Still uncertain about the significance of someone or something.
I can't hear the warnings at all
Unable to perceive warnings or alerts.
I can't read the writing the wall
Unable to comprehend or understand the message or signs present.
How was I to see past all the signs
Difficulty in recognizing or understanding warning signs.
It seemed clear but this happens all the time
Perceived clarity of a situation that often repeats with confusion.
