Dry as Sand
Echoes of Desolation: Unraveling the Heart's Upside Down
Lyrics
So your heart is inside out
Expressing emotional vulnerability, feeling exposed or raw.
All your friends have let you down
Experiencing disappointment from friends, a sense of betrayal.
Love slipped out the door without a sound
Love has left quietly, unnoticed, possibly causing pain.
With every new promise there lies a deeper doubt
Doubt accompanies each new promise, suggesting skepticism.
You think you see it coming but it turns before it can find you
Anticipating events but they change direction before impacting.
You stare at what you want for so long it's starting to blind you
Intense focus on a desire becomes blinding over time.
Dark as night and dry as sand
Describing a bleak, desolate emotional state.
The meaning filters right through your hands
Signifying the elusiveness of meaning, slipping away easily.
Silence is your dearest friend
Embracing silence as a companion, possibly due to solitude or reflection.
With every new beginning there comes a faster end
Acknowledging that every beginning is followed by a swift ending.
You think you see it coming but it turns before it can find you
Reiterating the unpredictability of events, thwarting expectations.
You stare at what you want for so long it's starting to blind you
Prolonged focus on desires can lead to losing sight of reality.
I can't tell you what you're fighting for
Admitting inability to define someone else's purpose or struggle.
I can only tell you what I see
Offering personal observations rather than prescribing meaning.
I wish that I could say it well, like it felt
Expressing a desire to articulate feelings as accurately as experienced.
To watch the evening fall on your face
Reflecting on the emotional impact of watching nightfall on someone's face.
Your beautiful face
Acknowledging the beauty in someone's face amid emotional challenges.
Time and sorrow burn the fuse
Time and sorrow cause damage, possibly to relationships or emotions.
You patch the hole with water and it seeps right through
Attempts to fix problems may prove ineffective, with issues persisting.
What on earth has been holding you
Pondering the factors that have restrained or held someone back.
This time around you just needed proof
Suggesting a need for evidence or confirmation in the current situation.
