Slumberless
Slumberless Serenade: A Cinematic Journey of Love and Loss
Lyrics
Feels like I'm in a film
Expressing a surreal experience, akin to being in a film.
Feels like I'm in a dream
Continuation of the dreamlike feeling, possibly suggesting a heightened emotional state.
Scared I'll lose control, can you hear me scream
Fear of losing control and a plea for attention or understanding, emphasized by the scream.
Drive up to the movie
Driving to a cinematic setting, creating an atmosphere that reflects a relationship.
Your pictures on the screen
Seeing the partner's image on a screen, hinting at a mediated or distant connection.
Wonder do you feel the same way as me
Questioning if the partner shares the same emotions.
Inside out, this liminal space isn't where I want to be found
Feeling disoriented and uncomfortable in a transitional or in-between space.
I don't make you feel safe anymore, never made me feel sound
Mutual insecurity and a lack of emotional safety in the relationship.
Slumberless when the sun goes down
Unable to sleep, possibly due to emotional turmoil or unrest.
Slumberless I don't feel you now
Feeling a disconnection or absence of the partner during a vulnerable moment.
Slumberless crying on the shower floor
Expressing deep emotional pain, symbolized by crying on the shower floor.
Slumberless in my favorite gown
Feeling restless and uneasy even in a favored state or attire.
Slumberless dance around the house
Attempting to distract from emotional pain by dancing around the house.
Slumberless I kicked you out of my door
Taking a decisive step to remove the partner from one's life.
Caught on all your light leaks
Awareness of flaws and vulnerabilities in the partner.
Held by the way you think
Being captivated by the partner's thought process or mindset.
In the garden would we cease to sink
Wondering if the relationship would survive challenges, using a garden metaphor.
Your friends like to party
Observing the partner's social circle and their response to adversity.
Do they celebrate loss
Raising questions about the sincerity of celebration in the face of loss.
So composed like you're not the one you fought
Noticing a composed facade that contrasts with the internal struggles.
Inside out, this liminal space isn't where I want to be found
Reiteration of discomfort in an ambiguous or transitional space.
I don't make you feel safe anymore, never made me feel sound
Mutual feelings of insecurity and lack of emotional grounding in the relationship.
Slumberless when the sun goes down
Restlessness and sleeplessness persisting into the night.
Slumberless I don't feel you now
Expressing a sense of emotional detachment from the partner.
Slumberless crying on the shower floor
Continuation of emotional pain, now linked to a specific setting (shower).
Slumberless in my favorite gown
Feeling slumberless even in a favored outfit, suggesting persistent discomfort.
Slumberless dance around the house
Using dancing as a coping mechanism or distraction from emotional pain.
Slumberless I kicked you out of my door
Confirming the act of ending the relationship by physically removing the partner.
Your melodies, they never stopped running through my head
Reflecting on memories, particularly the continuous presence of the partner's melodies.
Wanna finish our songs, tell all left unsaid
Expressing a desire to conclude unfinished aspects of the relationship.
A movie script ending, not so good at acting, ya
Comparing the ending to a movie script, highlighting a lack of authenticity in the separation.
