Julia's Unspoken Goodbye: A Melancholic Tale of Bridges and Locks
Lyrics
I never should have left you
I regret leaving you.
While you were sleeping
During your sleep.
You never would have heard a word I said
You wouldn't have heard my words.
if we were both screaming
Even if we were both yelling.
So I guess I'll be the coward
I'll be the one who didn't wake you up.
who never woke you up
Avoiding confrontation.
But I prefer you blame me
I'd rather you blame me than blame love.
than blame it all on your love
Preferable responsibility.
And on the radio is the sad song
A sad song on the radio.
that I don't want to hear anymore
Unwanted repetition.
It goes
Introduction to the sad song.
Julia
Addressing a person named Julia.
Don't turn around don't go back now
Advice not to turn back or go back.
the bridges are down the bridges are down
The bridges are destroyed or impassable.
Julia all the doors are locked
All doors are locked.
All the roads are blocked
All roads are blocked.
and it's too late to turn back now
Too late to reverse the situation.
I tore my umbrella right before it rained
An unfortunate incident before a challenge.
I made it to the station but the schedule had changed
Reaching a destination with obstacles.
I guess that I missed you
Doubt about the other person's presence.
maybe you never showed
Possibility of being stood up.
I waited there for hours
Long waiting without resolution.
I guess I'll never know
Uncertainty about the outcome.
And on the radio is a sad song
Reiteration of the sad song on the radio.
that I don't want to hear anymore
Resentment towards hearing the song.
It goes
Repetition of the song's presence.
And on the radio is a sad song
Continued aversion to the sad song.
that I don't want to hear anymore
Reiterating the desire not to hear the song.
It goes
Introduction to the sad song.
Julia
Addressing Julia again.
Don't turn around don't go back now
Advice not to turn back or go back.
The bridges are down the bridges are down
Reiteration of impassable bridges.
Julia all the doors are locked
Confirmation of locked doors.
All the roads are blocked
Confirmation of blocked roads.
And it's too late to turn back now
Emphasizing the irreversibility of the situation.
