Inanimate
Farewell to Sunlight: Luke Lemons' Tale of Emptiness and Transformation
Lyrics
Goodbye sunshine
Expressing farewell to positivity or brightness
Didn't know you were leaving at this time
Realization of an unexpected departure or loss
Today was a good day
Acknowledgment of a positive day
For walking alone, walking away
Choosing to walk away or depart from a situation
Bricks and pavement
Concrete surroundings, lack of emotional connection
No sentiment for cracked cement
Indifference towards damaged surroundings
Condoms and cigarettes
Objects symbolizing fleeting pleasure
Reminding me
Objects triggering memories or associations
I feel inanimate
Feeling devoid of emotions or life
I'll be latex and nicotine
Comparing oneself to disposable and addictive substances
I'll be your trash, Marlboro, Trojan king
Willingness to embody societal waste or excess
Maybe it is, maybe it doesn't
Uncertainty or ambivalence about a situation
Maybe I'm here, maybe I wasn't
Doubts about existence or presence
Take the band-aid
Metaphor for removing a cover or facing reality
Peel it from my skin, I did not shave
Indifference to grooming or appearance
Hair doesn't matter
Trivializing physical appearance
Pull from the root, far from the latter
Detachment from origins or history
I don't think much
Difficulty in contemplating while in a tough situation
When I'm down inside this fucking rut
Feeling emotionally numb within a difficult circumstance
Mud on my feet
Symbolism of feeling stuck or immobile
Making me feel like
Feeling so consumed by negativity that one loses appetite
I could never eat
Offering to help with someone's demise or problems
Let me dig you a grave of mine
Willingness to be controlled or subdued by someone else
I'll let you bury me all alive
Willingness to surrender completely to another person
And alone and afraid
Feeling isolated and scared
I don't go, I don't go that way
Refusal to conform to a particular way of living or thinking
I don't think I'm alone anymore
Realization of not being the only one in a similar situation
I can be your friend
Offering companionship or support to another
I can be your friend
Reiteration of willingness to be a friend
I can be your friend 'til the end of you or me
Commitment to friendship despite circumstances
I don't wanna go around
Desire to avoid a certain path or repetition
I don't wanna go around
Reluctance to engage in familiar situations
