Lyrics
I can't hold a thought
I struggle to maintain a consistent thought.
They won't stop drifting off
My thoughts keep drifting away despite efforts to control them.
Use all the right words
I use the correct words but still end up in emotional pain.
Still end up getting hurt
Despite efforts, I experience emotional pain.
You can't always get what you deserve
Not always do we receive what we think we deserve.
Doesn't matter if it's clear
Clarity doesn’t affect the outcome.
One light flickers in the kitchen
A solitary light flickers in the kitchen, possibly symbolizing isolation or solitude.
No one's gonna hear
There's a sense of isolation; no one is there to listen.
Elevate the conversation
Trying to elevate the discussion or dialogue.
Stories just for me
Personal stories meant for oneself.
Between old record sleeves
Memories or experiences stored among old records.
Give half as much as you receive
Give back only a portion of what is received.
There's an itching in my throat
Feeling an uncomfortable sensation in the throat.
And a clicking in my bones
Sensations of discomfort or unease within the body.
I took some bad advice
Acting on bad advice, possibly for someone else's benefit.
I've been saving it for you
I’ve kept something harmful or negative for you.
It was the least that I could do
Doing the minimum I could do in a situation.
At least now I know
Realization that understanding may be impossible.
I know we'll never know
Acceptance of the fact that some things will always remain unknown.
At least now I know
Reiteration of the acceptance of the unknowable.
I know we'll never know
Confirmation that certain things will forever remain beyond understanding.
