Light Years
Celestial Reflections of Love's Weightlessness
Lyrics
You have it love
You possess love.
Got all you need
You have everything you require.
Oh, what it takes
Expressing what is necessary to detach from me.
To fall from me
Falling away from me.
The opposite of gravity
The force opposing gravity symbolizing emotional detachment.
You got it, love
You have it, love.
Now cry with me
Now share tears with me.
Cry with me
Encouraging shared emotional release.
We die before
We experience the end before the conclusion of our story.
The movie ends
A metaphorical reference to the transient nature of life.
But maybe one day
Possibly envisioning a future reconciliation or connection.
We'll be friends
Anticipation of a future friendship.
And it will seem ok again
Hope that things will eventually be okay again.
And only we see evidence
Private evidence only known to the two involved parties.
Of what we left on kitchen tables
Objects left behind symbolizing memories.
Picture frames and basic cable
Everyday items representing a mundane yet cherished past.
Imitation ever afters
Faux fairy tale endings, not genuine.
Run in place
Stagnation and lack of progress.
It doesn't matter
Indicating that the specifics don't matter.
It doesn't matter
Reiteration that details are irrelevant.
Something to do while we lie here
Finding distraction during moments of rest or contemplation.
Hundreds and millions of light years
A vast span of time emphasizing emotional distance.
Nothing to do but just
No particular purpose except lying together.
Lie here
Continued idleness while lying down.
While we're
During our existence.
Hundreds and millions of light years away
Signifying an immense emotional separation.
