Lyrics
In parallel sea what would I be?
Contemplating my existence in a parallel world or situation.
My first love said to me:
Recollection of advice from my first love.
"Tears out for the world to see"
Expressing emotions openly for everyone to witness.
I would not be
Emphasizing a choice not to conform or be influenced.
I did not see the China berry tree
Realization of a significant element, the China berry tree, previously unnoticed.
Tears out, it would feel so
Imagining the emotional release that accompanies expression.
Heavenly, heavenly, heavenly
Repeated emphasis on the profound, perhaps divine, nature of the emotional release.
Hard now to picture a me
Reflecting on the difficulty of imagining oneself without the influence of another.
Without a you
Acknowledging the integral role of the other person ("you") in shaping oneself.
"Don't interfere"
Quoting a directive not to interfere, suggesting a past relationship's complexities.
Part of her back was frozen
Describing a physical condition, a frozen back, as a consequence of the past ("war").
For the remainder of the war
Referencing a prolonged impact or trauma endured during a specific period ("war").
"Don't be concerned"
Another directive not to worry, highlighting a lack of emotional understanding.
But I never learned how not to be
Admitting a failure to learn how to avoid emotional distress.
As my first love said to me:
Recollection of the first love reiterating a sense of detachment or apathy.
"I don't care. I'm not there"
Indifference expressed by the first love, causing personal turmoil.
So that I could not sleep
Resultant difficulty in finding peace or tranquility, manifesting as insomnia.
My whole being was falling apart
Internal struggles leading to a sense of disintegration or falling apart.
So that I soon cried out:
Outpouring of emotional distress, reaching out for support from friends.
"Dear friends, hold me!"
An earnest plea for comfort and assistance from dear friends.
