Candy Lunch
Candy Lunch Reflections: Embracing Individuality and Sweet Cravings
Lyrics
Sitting watching it rain
Sitting and observing the rain, contemplating my future.
Hoping I'm gonna be something
Hoping for a positive outcome or success in my endeavors.
And it's just like me to think about what I want
Reflecting on my tendency to focus on my desires and aspirations.
What I want
Reiterating the emphasis on my wants and needs.
Went to watch my friend play
Attended a friend's performance, drove down Broadway in a van.
Cruised the van down Broadway, Broadway
Specifically mentions Broadway, possibly a significant location.
And "I'd Rather Go Blind" was playing on WXNA
Refers to the song "I'd Rather Go Blind" playing on the radio station WXNA.
I pretended I was in a movie about my life
Imagining my life as a movie while listening to the song.
'Cause nothing seems to go better when I
Expressing frustration that things don't improve when I hold on too tightly.
Grab onto anything too tight, too tight
Cautioning against gripping onto things too tightly.
I can't count all of the times
Acknowledging numerous occasions when I vowed not to reveal my true feelings or intentions.
I said I'd never show my cards
Reference to keeping secrets or not showing vulnerability.
But here you are
Despite my intentions, someone has discovered my true self.
Why does every boy I meet
Questioning why every boy I meet tries to dictate my lifestyle or choices.
Try to tell me how to live or what to eat
Expressing frustration with others' attempts to control or advise.
I've always had a grip on it
Asserting my independence and self-control.
I've always done my own weird thing
Emphasizing my unique and unconventional behavior.
Sometimes that means I want candy for my lunch
Admitting to occasional desires for unconventional things like candy for lunch.
'Cause nothing seems to go better when I
Reiteration of the negative consequences of holding onto things too tightly.
Grab onto anything too tight, too tight
Reemphasizing the caution against gripping onto things too tightly.
I can't count all of the times
Recalling numerous instances when I promised not to reveal my true feelings or intentions.
I said I'd never show my cards
Repeating the theme of keeping secrets or not showing vulnerability.
But here you are
Despite my intentions, someone has discovered my true self again.
When I got back from that show
Returning from an event and desiring solitude.
All I really wanted was to be alone
Expressing the need for privacy and personal space.
But my roomie he was there
Despite the desire for solitude, a considerate roommate is present.
He's got a good heart, good heart
Complimenting the roommate for having a good heart.
Never closes cabinets
Highlighting a positive trait of the roommate - never closing cabinets.
And I just think it's sweet
Expressing appreciation for the roommate's considerate behavior.
'Cause nothing seems to go better when I
Reiterating the theme that things don't go well when holding onto things too tightly.
Grab onto anything too tight, too tight
Emphasizing the warning against gripping onto things too tightly.
I can't count all of the times
Recounting numerous occasions when I vowed not to reveal my true feelings or intentions.
I said I'd never show my cards
Reemphasizing the theme of keeping secrets or not showing vulnerability.
But here you are
Despite my intentions, someone has once again discovered my true self.
