Some Words
Whispers in Smoke: Unveiling the Meaning of 'Some Words'
Lyrics
you're stacking leaves as they're falling down
You're arranging leaves as they fall.
your quiet words aren't afraid of the dark
Your soft-spoken words aren't afraid of darkness.
one more touch and we could be falling apart
One more touch, and our connection could be breaking.
you're breathing smoke as you're fading out
You're exhaling smoke as you're disappearing.
one more spark and we could be fine
One more spark, and everything could be okay.
so write it down and we can just cross out the lines
Suggesting to document it so we can reconsider our decisions.
I'll fake it for the sky if you fake the trees, ok,
I'll pretend for the sake of optimism if you do the same.
we could be fine, i said, we could be falling asleep
We have the potential to be fine, or we might fall asleep.
and leaving all the wolves to the sheep
Leaving the dangerous ones (wolves) to the innocent (sheep).
you're waiting for the same thing, the same thing that'll save me
You're anticipating salvation or something that will rescue me.
some words mean nothing, but I'll say it anyway
Some words might lack significance, but I'll express them anyway.
and if we fade away, I'd get the chance to say
If we fade away, I'll have the opportunity to convey something important.
that some means nothing, but some words mean everything
Some words might seem insignificant, but they carry profound meaning.
stringing lights on a goldmine, shake it off when your lips start to close
Hanging lights in a valuable place; dismiss words when silence sets in.
push and pull, the shore still takes more than we'll know
Struggling in the ebb and flow of life, facing more challenges than we realize.
breathing smoke as I'm fading out, lips pressed to your neck like a knife
Inhaling smoke as I fade away, closely connected like a sharp knife to your neck.
would it hurt to trace it till we got it right?
Wondering if it would be painful to repeat something until it's perfect.
I'll fake it for the sky if you fake the trees, ok,
Reiterating the idea of pretending for optimism, mutual agreement to face challenges.
we could be fine, i said, we could be falling asleep
We have the potential to be fine, or we might fall asleep.
and leaving all the wolves to the sheep
Leaving the dangerous ones (wolves) to the innocent (sheep).
how could we fake it so quickly
Questioning how we can pretend or deceive so quickly.
