Lyrics
I feel I'm looking
Feeling a sense of searching or longing.
For something that's not even there
Expressing frustration about seeking something that may not exist.
And I'll remember the moment that I ceased to care
Recalling the moment when apathy or indifference took over.
So much for everything That I thought that we had established
Reflecting on the disappointment of things thought to be established or true.
Or saw to be true
Questioning the validity of what was believed to be true.
Don't you see?
Emphasizing the need for understanding.
The sensations all the same
Noting the repetitiveness or predictability of emotions.
You cut your grass
Metaphorically referring to maintaining order and control in life.
And Then you let It grow
Highlighting the cyclical nature of life, with phases of growth and neglect.
You watch it as it goes astray
Observing the consequences of allowing things to go off course.
Two friends of now
Describing a relationship between two friends in the present.
Gone and just parted ways
Expressing the separation or divergence of paths between the friends.
One has gone home to take a bath
Describing one friend's mundane activity.
And one has gone home to pray
Describing the other friend's spiritual or reflective activity.
But what they both knew
Recognizing the inevitability of change in their relationship.
Is that it could never be the same
Affirming the understanding that things can't return to the way they were.
Not quite, but how could it? How could it?
Questioning the possibility of restoring the past relationship.
Don't you see?
Reiterating the commonality of emotions or experiences.
The sensations all the same
Comparing emotions to a repetitive pattern.
You pick up feathers
Symbolizing the act of grasping or holding onto fragile things.
Then you let them go
Metaphorically depicting the release or relinquishing of control.
You watch them as they blow away
Observing the unpredictable and uncontrollable nature of events.
So long you say
Saying goodbye or acknowledging the end of a chapter.
It's all it takes
Highlighting the simplicity of saying goodbye.
More than you face
Acknowledging the challenges faced, possibly more than anticipated.
In all of your days
Summarizing the struggles encountered throughout one's life.
