Lonesome Again
Lonesome Echoes: Love's Departure in Mason Cole's Melodic Sorrow
Lyrics
I see lovers with their others. Makes me lonesome again
Observing other couples together brings back feelings of loneliness.
Cause he's holding you and there's tears of blue falling to my hands
Expressing sorrow as the person he loves is held by someone else, and he sees tears (emotional pain) on his hands.
Seeping in your smile that lays crooked on your face
Noticing a fake or forced smile on the person's face, suggesting deception or hidden emotions.
Deceiving me in treachery with pretty red ribbon lace
Feeling deceived and betrayed, symbolized by the mention of pretty red ribbon lace.
You said everything's changed. Your feelings don't feel the same
Acknowledging a change in the relationship and the pain associated with it.
Do you think I feel no pain and ain't going insane
Questioning if the other person understands the emotional pain he is going through.
Since you left my arms, I've since lost all my charm
Expressing a loss of charm and desolation since the person left.
I'm getting bound, getting high and drinking till I'm numb
Engaging in self-destructive behaviors like drinking to numb the emotional pain.
I recall it all so well, darling, how you cast your spells
Recalling the impact of the person's actions and pleading for the spells to be broken.
Cast them once again, even if I wind up damned
Willing to face damnation if it means being with the person again.
And I've cried out to the Lord, but he don't care anymore
Desperation and seeking divine intervention, but feeling abandoned by a higher power.
Maybe he doesn't see what all this crying's for
Suggesting a lack of understanding or empathy from a higher power regarding the emotional pain.
Well, I sure could use an answer or at least a little relief
Expressing a need for answers or relief in the face of emotional turmoil.
But if it ain't so meant to be, I'll die in misery
Contemplating a miserable existence if the relationship is not meant to be.
And I've tried one night lovers, but I just can't get over
Attempting to move on with one-night stands but struggling to overcome the emotional connection with the person.
How warm I felt when I was held by my own sufferer
Reflecting on the warmth felt when held by the person who caused suffering.
So no matter who you love and when you look above
Regardless of who the person loves, the distance and unattainability of happiness are acknowledged.
See the stars, they seem so far, but oh, how they glow
Seeing the stars as both distant and beautiful, representing the complexity of emotions.
I recall it all so well, darling, how you cast your spells
Repeating the recollection of the impact of the person's actions and the desire for the spells to be broken.
Cast them once again, even if I wind up damned
Reiterating the willingness to face damnation for a chance to be with the person again.
I see lovers with their others, makes me lonesome again
Repeating the observation of other couples, emphasizing the recurring loneliness.
Cause he's holding you and there's tears of blue falling to my hands
Reiterating the pain of seeing the person with someone else and feeling tears of sadness.
