Embracing Change: Leisure Theory's Poetic Journey Through Loss and Longing
Lyrics
It's embarrassing
Feeling ashamed or uncomfortable
We're adjusting to that starting line
Adjusting to the initial phase or beginning
Don't make sense no more
Things are no longer logical or coherent
Knew the world had changed, but we'd stay aligned
Realized the world changed but expected to stay aligned with it
Did I joke too much
Questioning if humor was used excessively
Were we loosing touch
Concern about losing connection or rapport with someone
Oh, these thoughts my new reality
These thoughts are now the new reality
This was stolen time but I don't agree
Time that was taken unlawfully, yet the person doesn't agree with that notion
You were the grey skies above me
Metaphorical representation of someone being emotionally overhead, possibly oppressive
The crashing white waves down below me
Symbolic description of turbulent emotions
And I never felt this lonely
Feeling extremely isolated or alone
Till I left this in the fall
Emotions of loneliness emerged particularly in autumn
You were the grey skies above me
Metaphorically portraying someone as emotionally overhead, possibly oppressive
The crashing white waves down below me
Depiction of turbulent and chaotic emotions
And I never felt unsteady
Never felt unstable or insecure until leaving a particular situation in autumn
Till I left you in the fall
Never experienced instability until departing from a relationship in autumn
Life is going down
Life is deteriorating or declining
And I long to feel your touch again
Strong desire to experience physical contact again
It's not living anymore it's just survival instinct
Life has become a mere instinct to survive rather than live
But it comes to me when I try to sleep
Memories or thoughts arise particularly when trying to sleep
Will I wake up, hate the thought of you
Fearing the possibility of waking up and hating thoughts about someone
This was stolen time but I don't agree
Time that was taken unlawfully, yet the person doesn't agree with that notion
And i'm doubled up in fear
Overwhelmed with fear, possibly doubled over
Oh I count another year
Counting another year, possibly indicating the passage of time
Did you think about it too
Wondering if someone else thought about a certain situation
Think you would have if you could
Believing someone would have considered a situation if they were able to
Have you saved yourself from me
Questioning if someone managed to protect themselves from emotional harm caused by the speaker
Even though we both agree
Agreeing mutually on a decision, potentially despite difficulties
That it had to be like this
Acceptance of the situation despite losing a moment of happiness
Lost the momentary bliss
Losing a fleeting moment of happiness or joy
You were the grey skies above me
Metaphorical representation of someone being emotionally overhead, possibly oppressive
The crashing white waves down below me
Symbolic description of turbulent emotions
And I never felt this lonely
Feeling extremely isolated or alone
Till I left this in the fall
Emotions of loneliness emerged particularly in autumn
You were the grey skies above me
Metaphorical representation of someone being emotionally overhead, possibly oppressive
The crashing white waves down below me
Depiction of turbulent and chaotic emotions
And I never felt unsteady
Never felt unstable or insecure until leaving a particular situation in autumn
Till I left you in the fall
Never experienced instability until departing from a relationship in autumn
