Collisions
Navigating Life's Collisions: A Symphony of Struggle and Discovery
Lyrics
I got the job
I have secured a job.
And a warm enough house
I have a sufficiently warm house.
The girl, a dog
I have a romantic partner and a dog.
So, what happens now?
Despite having these things, there is uncertainty about the future.
Everything I'm told I'll need
Things that I'm advised to have don't bring fulfillment.
Just leaves me low and empty
Despite having what I'm told I need, I still feel empty.
Because I'm a million collisions
Describing oneself as a chaotic combination of countless collisions.
Slow and out of rhythm
Feeling slow and out of sync with the rhythm of life.
A chemical explosion
Metaphorically expressing an internal burst or breakdown of emotions.
And that is all I told them
Stating that the chaotic collisions define who they are.
Getting older's made me mean
Suggesting that aging has made the person more cynical or harsh.
It's hard to see the good in things
Expressing difficulty in finding positivity in life.
I felt a loss
Describing a feeling of loss experienced.
In an ice covered car
Feeling the loss in a cold, icy environment inside a car.
The dark, the frost
Referring to the darkness, frost, and perpetual uncertainty.
And the unending doubt
Expressing ongoing doubt and insecurity.
Everything I'll ever need
Everything essential seems unattainable.
Is far beyond my reach
Despite needs, there's a sense of unreachability.
Because I'm a million collisions
Reiteration of being a complex result of countless collisions.
Slow and out of rhythm
Continued sense of being out of sync and slow.
A chemical explosion
Repeating the metaphor of a chemical explosion within.
And hat is all I told them
Emphasizing that the internal chaos is the only truth shared.
Getting older's made me mean
Reflecting on the negative impact of aging on personality.
It's hard to see the good in things
Reiterating the difficulty in finding positivity.
I felt a loss.
Reiteration of feeling a profound loss.
