Lyrics

Someone cries, and it washes the street with tears

Expressing the impact of someone's sorrow, symbolized by tears washing the street.

But when they are mine, they collect in my head for years

The personal burden of holding onto one's own emotional pain for an extended period.

Rain or shine, still I'm standing on all I said

Remaining steadfast despite challenges and sticking to one's convictions.

Cause it's in my soul, carry on when the feeling's dead

Enduring and carrying on with life even when the emotional connection seems lifeless.

But if you can't hold on, let it go and come back in your heart

Suggesting the idea of releasing emotional baggage and allowing it to return when ready.

And if you can't hold on, maybe it's not time for you

Acknowledging that sometimes holding on may not be the right choice at the moment.

And if you can't hold on, on your very last try

Encouraging persistence, especially during difficult times, with the promise of support.

I'll be there in the morning to pull you through

A commitment to be there for someone in the morning, implying emotional support.

Some one dies late at night and I'd never know

Reflecting on the obliviousness to the struggles and death of others, possibly due to personal preoccupations.

Even if I did, so afraid of the face I'd show

Fearing the judgment and reaction to the self if confronted with the death of someone close.

I feel trapped and enslaved to this dark contrast

Feeling confined and controlled by a dark and contrasting emotional state.

I need a feeling now, give me something that's gonna last

Expressing a need for a lasting positive emotion or experience.

And if you can't hold on, let it go and come back in your heart

Reiterating the idea of letting go and allowing emotions to return when the time is right.

And if you can't hold on, maybe it's not time for you

Suggesting that holding on may not be suitable for everyone at every moment.

And if you can't hold on, on your very last try

Emphasizing the importance of persistence, even on the verge of giving up.

I'll be there in the morning to pull you through

Promising to provide support and assistance in the morning, a symbol of hope and renewal.

I wanna be free

Expressing a desire for freedom from emotional burdens.

Yes, I wanna be free

Reiterating the longing for freedom, emphasizing personal liberation.

You say you wanna be free

Acknowledging another's desire for freedom, possibly suggesting a shared aspiration.

But you can't fool me

Expressing skepticism or insight into someone's claimed desire for freedom.

And if you can't hold on

Repeating the theme of holding on and the willingness to be there for support.

I'll be there

Reaffirming the commitment to provide assistance and support.

And if you can't hold on, let it go and come back in your heart

Restating the idea of letting go and allowing emotions to return when the time is right.

And if you can't hold on, maybe it's not time for you

Suggesting that the timing of holding on may vary for different individuals.

And if you can't hold on, on your very last try

Encouraging perseverance, especially during challenging moments.

I'll be there for you, know that you're not alone

Reassuring that support is available, emphasizing that no one is alone.
