I Don't Know
Sinking Shadows: Mark Zubia's Reflection on Lost Love and Life's Uncertainties
Lyrics
Hangin' in the shadows
Hanging back in the unnoticed or less visible areas
Hangin' on for what we know
Clutching onto what we're familiar with or certain about
Taking up the hours
Passing time
I will leave when morning showers
Planning to depart when the morning rain starts
Go falling down
Falling apart
All over town
Everywhere around the area or community
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Doin' all this drinkin'
Consuming alcohol excessively
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Can't you see I'm sinkin'
Feeling like sinking or declining
Can't you see I'm sinkin'
-Broken hearted boozer
Heartbroken drinker
Are you also a user
Wondering if the listener is also someone who consumes substances
Calling for the fable
Desiring an improbable story or excuse
I would leave it
Would prefer to abandon it
Are we able
Questioning our capability
No knockin' down
No resisting
Another round
One more series of drinks
And fallin' down
Collapsing or failing
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Doin' all this drinkin'
Engaging in excessive drinking
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Can't you see I'm sinkin'
Feeling like sinking or declining
Can't you see I'm sinkin'
-So far from home
Far away from one's residence
Lost all I own
Lost all possessions
Tell me what went wrong
Asking for an explanation about what went astray
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Doin' all my drinkin'
Engaging in all of one's drinking
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
Can't you see I'm sinkin'
Feeling like sinking or declining
I don't know what I'm thinkin'
Uncertain about thoughts or decisions
I don't know what I'm
-What I'm thinkin'
-I don't know what I'm thinkin'
-I don't know what I'm thinkin'
