Sink
Navigating Love's Depths: A Song of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
We were kids first
We experienced childhood innocence and naivety first.
Hanging from your window reckless
Engaging in daring behavior, hanging from your window.
We slept for days
We spent extended periods sleeping.
Steady sink it wasn’t always like this
A gradual decline occurred; sinking into a difficult situation wasn't always the case.
You took my hand and you called it
You held my hand and named it during our boat trip last summer.
When we went out on that boat last summer
Recalling a specific event when we went out on a boat during the previous summer.
I could have stopped you and we both know it
I could have intervened, and we acknowledge that fact.
But we can’t always stop each other
Mutual recognition that we can't always prevent each other's actions.
We have to do it for ourselves some time
At times, we must take responsibility for our actions independently.
There’s a market out here
There's a market, possibly metaphorical, visited every Sunday to buy roses.
Every Sunday I buy roses
Regular purchase of roses, symbolic of a recurring act of beauty or nostalgia.
They remind me of the ones that
Reflecting on finding wild roses in a car park.
We found in the car park growing wild
Growing wild in a car park, reminiscent of a past experience.
You took my hand cos there were thousands
You held my hand among thousands, possibly referring to a crowded or challenging situation.
And we were sobering up that summer
During a sobering period in the summer, emphasizing a shared experience.
You could have helped me and we both know it
I could have been assisted, and we acknowledge this truth.
But we can’t always help each other
Understanding that mutual help isn't always feasible; individuals must act for themselves.
We have to do it for ourselves some time
Emphasizing the need for personal responsibility at times.
It would be so beautiful to never have to think
Expressing a desire for a carefree existence without constant contemplation.
Like swimming without being scared to sink
An analogy: likening carefree living to swimming without fear of sinking.
So I’ll stay here til i don’t miss you
Committing to staying until the absence of missing someone.
But I’ll be hard on myself this summer
Acknowledging self-imposed challenges during the summer.
We could have saved it and we both know it
We could have preserved the relationship, and we acknowledge it.
But we can’t always save each other
Recognizing the limitation that we can't always rescue one another.
We have to do it for ourselves some time
Reiterating the necessity of individual action for self-preservation.
