Embracing Shadows: Little Truck's Poetic Journey Through Love and Loss
Lyrics
I like to wake up with the sun
I appreciate starting the day early with the sunrise.
I like to hold your body close
I enjoy being physically close to you.
When the mornings just begun
Especially in the early morning when the day is beginning.
When the sky explodes
Referring to a beautiful sunrise or a moment of awe.
I know the middle and the end
I understand the entirety of a situation or experience.
I know that feeling in my bones
I recognize a certain feeling deeply within me.
But I'm trying to pretend
Pretending to be unaffected or indifferent, like a funeral home maintaining composure.
Like a funeral home
Comparing the attempt to pretend to the atmosphere of a funeral home.
I think I've seen that face before
Noticing familiarity or recognition in someone's expression.
There's a furrow in your brows
Observing a worried or tense expression on your face.
I don't know what you're going through
Uncertain about the difficulties or challenges you're facing.
But it's hanging like a cloud
The challenge or issue is present and affecting the atmosphere.
I smell the liquor in your sweat
Detecting the scent of alcohol in your perspiration.
Taste the fingers in your mouth
Sensing the taste of someone else on your fingers.
Crying like an ambulance
Expressing emotions intensely, like the sound of an ambulance.
I see you different now
Seeing you in a new light or understanding you differently.
Some things you don't have to say out loud
Some things are understood without being verbalized.
Baby I'm keeping it all to myself
Choosing to keep personal feelings and experiences to oneself.
The sun is moving through the trees
Noticing the passage of time as the sun moves through the trees.
The shadows dance along the floor
Observing playful shadows moving on the floor.
Your skin shimmers in the heat
Appreciating the allure of your skin in the warmth.
My hearts buzzin' like a bug
Feeling excitement or nervousness, like a buzzing bug.
I like the wrinkle in your nose
Admiring the charming details of your facial expression.
I like the freckle on your face
Appreciating unique features, like a freckle.
I see it when I close my eyes
Imagining and remembering these details even when eyes are closed.
So familiar in your ways
Finding comfort and familiarity in the way you behave.
Feeling jealous like a child
Experiencing a childlike jealousy, akin to a rivalry.
With a boyhood rivalry
Recalling a competitive dynamic from childhood.
I'll throw the fucker to the floor
Expressing frustration or aggression toward an imagined opponent.
Of the auditorium
Using strong language to emphasize a physical confrontation.
I'm jumping off the diving board
Taking a bold and potentially risky action.
Into an empty swimming pool
Engaging in a metaphorical leap into an uncertain situation.
I got a feeling in my chest
Feeling an intense emotion in the chest that is hard to manage.
That I can't control
Holding onto you loosely to avoid damaging the relationship.
Holding you loose so this thing don't break
Understanding the fragility of the situation but not wanting to control you.
But I wouldn't blame you if you flew away
Recognizing the possibility of you leaving, but expressing acceptance.
Yeah, I learned that lesson from old mistakes
Learning from past mistakes and experiences.
But I couldn't lose if I don't play the game
Avoiding potential loss by not participating in certain situations.
