Reflections on Time: Memories and Uncertainties
Lyrics
We dipped down below
We descended to a lower point or state.
I thought we were special, but it was just you
I believed our connection was special, but it was only about you.
We put on a show
We pretended, possibly in a performance or relationship.
Go on and close the curtain, let's be honest
Close the curtain; let's be honest about our situation.
The texture of my coffee, the smell of that wet dirt
Notable sensations like the texture of coffee and the smell of wet dirt.
I fell into folly and quickly got hurt
I made a mistake and suffered the consequences quickly.
At the end of my life, what will I remember
Reflecting on what will be remembered at the end of life.
Is it this time
Questioning if this moment will be a significant memory.
Memories pay dividends
Recollections yield emotional rewards.
Whatever happens you're one of them
Regardless of outcomes, you are a memorable part of my life.
We made a constellation
We created something enduring, like a constellation.
But I can't read the turn signals around us
Uncertain about the signals around us, possibly in relationships.
You said I've got a funny way
A remark about having a peculiar or unique behavior.
Well I was born in the winter in case you can't tell
Birth circumstances in winter hinted at.
There's a dark moon on the back street, tiny bottles in our pockets
Imagery of a dark moon and small bottles in pockets.
The future is unfolding, it could go any which way
The future is uncertain and can unfold in various ways.
At the end of my life, what will I remember
Reflecting again on what will be remembered at life's end.
Is it this time
Questioning if this current time will leave a lasting memory.
Memories pay dividends
Recollections provide emotional returns.
Whatever happens you're one of them
Regardless of outcomes, you hold significance in memories.
I may never know what went wrong
Uncertainty about understanding what went wrong in a situation.
But I'm not ready to cut loose my hope and all
Not willing to give up hope despite uncertainties.
I may never know what went wrong
Reiterating the uncertainty of understanding what went wrong.
Not down for the count yet
Not defeated yet, still in the game.
Won't forget however it falls
Commitment to remembering, regardless of the outcome.
At the end of my life, what will I remember
Reflection on what will be remembered at the end of life.
Is it this time
Questioning if this particular moment will be a lasting memory.
Memories pay dividends
Recollections provide emotional returns.
Whatever happens you're one of them
Regardless of outcomes, you remain significant in memories.
