Why I Cry
Echoes of Heartache: Mathea Nicolaisen's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
I´ve been having bad dreams again
Experiencing recurring nightmares
In daylight i am overthinking
During the day, dealing with excessive and obsessive thoughts
I don´t believe in signs, but it happens every night
Expressing skepticism about signs but facing nightly occurrences
Cause i can´t control your mind
Feeling a lack of control over someone else's thoughts
I´ve been having bad dreams again
Reiteration of recurring nightmares
I know that your not thinking of leaving me right now
Assurance that the partner is not currently considering leaving
But maybe someday
Anticipating a potential separation in the future
You believe that you are better off without me by your side
Imagining the partner believing they are better off without the speaker
And that´s why i cry now
Resulting in the speaker's current emotional distress and crying
Oh, my friends and lovers didn´t stay
Reflecting on the departure of friends and past lovers
What if all your feelings go away
Contemplating the possibility of losing all emotional connection
No i don´t believe in signs but it happens all the time
Reiterating disbelief in signs but acknowledging their frequent occurrence
I don´t know whats on your mind i feel like
Expressing uncertainty about the partner's thoughts
I´ve been having bad dreams again
Reiteration of experiencing unsettling dreams
I know that your not thinking of leaving me right now
Reassurance that the partner is not currently considering leaving
But maybe someday
Anticipating a potential separation in the future (similar to line 8)
You believe that you are better off without me by your side
Imagining the partner believing they are better off without the speaker
And that´s why i cry now
Resulting in the speaker's current emotional distress and crying (similar to line 10)
(ooh)
(ooh) Emotional vocalization
That´s why i cry now
-(ooh)
Just pull me apart
Desire for emotional support and connection despite potential difficulties
And put the pieces back together
Willingness to go through challenges and be restored
I don´t care, just don´t
Indifference to the method of restoration, as long as it happens
Let me go
Requesting not to be abandoned
I know that your not thinking of leaving me right now
Reassurance that the partner is not currently considering leaving
But maybe someday
Anticipating a potential separation in the future (similar to line 8 and 19)
You believe that you are better off without me by your side
Imagining the partner believing they are better off without the speaker
And that´s why i cry
Resulting in the speaker's current emotional distress and crying (similar to line 10 and 21)
Now
Conclusion of the emotional distress
That´s why i cry now
Reiteration of the emotional distress
That´s why i cry now
-That´s why i cry now
