Lyrics
Setting up Sunday
Preparing for a significant day (Sunday)
Watching the winter grow
Observing the growth and progression of winter
So old
Expressing a feeling of age or antiquity
No
Denial or refusal
Oh, we're making excuses
Coming up with justifications or reasons
For insecurities
Excusing flaws or uncertainties about oneself
It's not about me
Stating that the situation isn't centered on oneself
It's never about me
Emphasizing that it's never about oneself
Now I can't go on
Feeling unable to continue
I'm lost and alone
Experiencing being lost and isolated
Now we're lovers gone
Referring to the absence of a past relationship
I'm lost and alone
Reiterating the feeling of being lost and alone
Kid, I'm right here
Assuring someone, perhaps a younger person, of one's presence
And I'm not leaving
Committing to staying by someone's side
There's no way to make you stay
Recognizing the inability to force someone to remain
But I'm saving all my worries for that day you don't need me
Stating that worries are reserved for the future when the person might not need support
Selling out Monday
Compromising integrity or values for success on Monday (symbolic for work or obligations)
Watching the children grow
Observing the growth of children but feeling emotionally distant (Cold)
So Cold
Emphasizing a feeling of emotional distance or detachment
No
Denial or refusal
Oh, they're weighing our hands down
Noting that burdens or issues are causing a weight on hands (symbolic of burdens)
Our human frailities
Referring to human weaknesses or vulnerabilities
It's not about me
Stating that the situation isn't centered on oneself
It's never about me
Emphasizing that it's never about oneself
Now I can't go on
Feeling unable to continue
I'm lost and alone
Experiencing being lost and isolated
Now we're lovers gone
Referring to the absence of a past relationship
I'm lost and alone
Reiterating the feeling of being lost and alone
Kid, I'm right here
Assuring someone, perhaps a younger person, of one's presence
And I'm not leaving
Committing to staying by someone's side
There's no way to make you stay
Recognizing the inability to force someone to remain
But I'm saving all my worries for the day you don't need me
Stating that worries are reserved for the future when the person might not need support
Kid, I'm right here
Assuring someone, perhaps a younger person, of one's presence
It's now morning
Noting the current time as morning
There's no way
Expressing impossibility or difficulty in making someone stay
Please stay
Pleading for someone to remain
Stay
Repeating the plea to stay
Setting up Sunday
Preparing for a significant day (Sunday)
Watching their hearts in soil
Observing the emotional state of others and its influence on them
Go mold
Indicating the potential for change or shaping of emotions
