Lyrics
It's been ten minutes since
Reflecting on a past event, ten minutes ago.
A thought of this
Recalling a particular thought or memory.
Has made its way and left its mark on me
The impact of the thought on the speaker.
And in ten minutes more
Anticipating a recurrence of the same thought.
The same thing will
Expecting a repetition of the mental process.
Start happening and frame this novelty
Envisioning the thought as a recurring pattern.
And when this cycle ends
Referencing a cycle or pattern in the speaker's thoughts.
I'll start again
Expressing a willingness to restart the mental cycle.
And bring about the possibility
Possibly alluding to the potential outcomes of thoughts.
The thought of looking for
Desire to explore and discover more.
And finding more
Highlighting the difficulty in the search for more.
Has never been as hard as this for me
Emphasizing the challenge in the speaker's current situation.
I found a picture of the two of us
Discovery of a photograph featuring the speaker and someone else.
And seeming like it was a week ago
Nostalgia for a moment that feels recent.
I thought of everything
Recollection of expectations and missed opportunities.
It should have been
The realization that things did not unfold as expected.
And nothing was as far as I would go
The distance between reality and the speaker's expectations.
and when the cycle did come to an end
Reflecting on the conclusion of a cycle or pattern.
I thought about the possibility
Contemplating the potential outcomes of thoughts.
The thought of looking for
Reiteration of the difficulty in searching for more.
And finding more
Reemphasizing the challenge in seeking additional meaning.
Has always been the hardest thing for me
Highlighting the enduring difficulty in the speaker's life.
I'll wait a thousand ten minutes
Expressing a prolonged period of waiting and reflection.
Since when has it ever been different
Questioning the consistency of past experiences.
I'll spend a lifetime of learning
Commitment to continuous learning throughout life.
Since when did I remember anything at all
Noticing a lapse in memory and forgetfulness.
where did I leave her name and her number
Pondering the location of someone's name and contact details.
Where does she work she told me before
Remembering past information about a person.
Why do I find it hard to remember
Questioning the difficulty in ignoring certain thoughts.
Now why do I find it hard to ignore
Exploring the challenge of disregarding specific thoughts.
How do I know when this will be over
Reflecting on uncertainty and the passage of time.
Another ten minutes went by
Noting the passage of another ten minutes.
