Lyrics
What on earth is this game we play?
Questioning the nature of the game being played
It's a catastrophe
Describing the game as a catastrophe
Just for you and me
Highlighting that the game is exclusive to "you and me"
Please shut my mouth when I talk too loud
Expressing a desire for silence when talking too loudly
Unfold it once
Encouraging unfolding or revealing something hidden
Get the inside out
Encouraging introspection or self-reflection
But I'm not so grumpy
Contrasting grumpiness with occasional positive moods
All the time
Emphasizing variability in emotional states
Must've took the turn in the alleyway
Speculating about a decision made in an alleyway
You never told me 'bout this new innocence
Not being informed about a new innocence
Whatever keeps you there
Encouraging whatever helps one stay in a particular state
Tie it a knot
Using tying a knot metaphorically, possibly related to commitment
A menacing sight through your window pane
Describing a menacing sight visible through a window pane
Tell me who is it for?
Posing a question about the intended recipient of something
Under my inhibition
Referring to inhibition or constraint
All you wanna devour
Expressing a desire to consume or possess
Need a bit of connection here
Expressing a need for connection
'Cause I cannot tell if you're breathing perfectly
Uncertainty about the well-being of someone
It's all over me
Feeling overwhelmed or covered by something
Quite so suddenly
Describing a sudden occurrence
Temperatures rising
Referring to rising temperatures metaphorically
Internal questioning
Experiencing internal questioning or doubt
Somehow I ended up longing for
Expressing a longing for the absence of answers
The absence of the answers I'm looking for
Continuing the theme of seeking unanswered questions
