Window Screen
Contemplating Boundaries: Moonlit Reflections
Lyrics
Read about attachment styles all afternoon
Reflecting on attachment styles extensively during the afternoon.
Now I'm looking at the moon from my bed
Contemplating the moon while lying in bed.
She's a blurry little brightness, in a deep dark sky
Describing the moon as a faint light in a vast, dark sky that doesn't get engulfed.
Who neglects to swallow her up, but why?
Pondering why the moon remains unconsumed by the darkness.
Well maybe the sky's been fed
Suggesting the possibility that the sky has been nourished.
Everything past arm's length
Considering everything beyond one's immediate reach.
Behind crossed lines of a window screen
Referring to thoughts separated by the crossed lines of a window screen.
That maybe I'll kick loose one night
Contemplating freeing oneself for a better perspective.
For a better view
Describing the quiet and tinted blue environment outside the window.
Is quiet and tinted blue
Wondering if time and patience affect the sharpness of a razor.
With time and patience, I wonder if it's skin that dulls a razor?
Questioning whether it's the skin, hair, air, or water that dulls a razor.
Or is it the hair, the air, the water?
Considering moving the question from arms to fingertips to find answers.
Maybe I will move the question down my arms and into fingertips
Expressing the desire to explore and understand personal thoughts.
And see if I can find
Seeking clarity on what occupies the mind.
What's on my mind
Thinking about the positive, negative, and timing aspects of life.
Instead I think about the good, the bad, the timing of it all
Repeatedly facing obstacles or challenges.
For the hundredth time, I hit a wall
Mental processes occurring behind eyes that resist closing.
Everything in my mind
Feeling mentally fatigued with spinning thoughts.
Behind eyes that refuse to close
Expressing tiredness and a lack of energy for understanding.
Is spinning and I'm far too tired
Struggling with the pace required to make sense of oneself and others.
For the pace required
Addressing uncertainties and challenges in relationships.
To make sense of me and you
Concerns about crossing undefined boundaries.
The questions make my heart unwind
Questions causing emotional distress and unraveling.
How not to cross lines that're undefined
Reflecting on the challenge of maintaining appropriate boundaries.
How to know when to monitor my clutch
Contemplating when to be cautious and when to withdraw affectionate gestures.
Or withdraw my touch
Dealing with the internal conflict of desire versus perceived imposition.
When wanting anything feels like asking too much
Feeling hesitant about expressing needs and desires.
Everybody tells me I'm gonna be just fine
Receiving reassurances from others but questioning their certainty.
Why do they get to know?
Expressing uncertainty about why others have insights into one's well-being.
Every thing is fuzzy, every line
Perceiving a lack of clarity and distinct boundaries in various aspects of life.
They say everybody sees the same moon
Contemplating the shared experience of observing the moon.
Maybe that'll make more sense soon
Anticipating that shared experiences may lead to better understanding in the future.
