Hotel
Emotional Odyssey: Reflections on Lost Connections
Lyrics
From the dive down to the wet
Reflecting on a descent to a wet or dark place.
Usually I fall, tell myself
Acknowledging a tendency to fall and consoling oneself.
It doesn't matter anyway
Expressing a belief that circumstances don't matter.
That this is just another day
Recognizing the day as ordinary or unremarkable.
I don't speak the truth too much
Admitting a tendency to avoid speaking the truth.
Hear the roars and the hush
Acknowledging contrasting sounds—roars and hush—in life.
And the cold chill of time
Sensing the cold passage of time.
And I'm happy murderin' my mind
Finding solace or satisfaction in self-destructive thoughts.
Oh I remember your voice
Recalling the memory of someone's voice.
Turnin' around and around and around in my head
Describing obsessive thoughts, going around in the mind.
Now it's just like you said
Comparing current experiences to past predictions.
Everything inside is dead
Expressing emotional numbness or emptiness.
From the pillar to the post
Moving from one situation to another, dealing with loss.
I kill what I can miss the most
Choosing to eliminate what is missed the most.
Of the blame when you get in touch
Acknowledging avoidance of responsibility when reconnecting with the past.
Another town another torch
Continuing a cycle of moving on to new places and challenges.
Thought I saw you in a dream
Experiencing a vision or illusion of someone in a dream.
Fill the hours in between
Filling the time between moments of connection with distractions.
When I call myself alone
Feeling loneliness and self-isolation.
Then I disappear below
Retreating or disappearing internally.
I remember your face
Recalling the visual memory of someone's face.
But it's been a long been a long been a long long day
Noting the passage of a long and challenging day.
What I did along the way
Reflecting on actions taken during the challenging day.
Well I wouldn't care to say
Expressing a reluctance to disclose details of one's actions.
