Shout It Out
Navigating Love's Crossroads: Shout It Out by Mikal Cronin
Lyrics
I learned a little bit a long, long time ago
I acquired some knowledge a long time ago.
Just from a friend I used to know
This knowledge was shared by a friend from the past.
About how love can end so slow
It pertains to the slow dissolution of love.
I won't admit it, but my time is running low
I am reluctant to acknowledge it, but my time is running out.
I'm getting closer to the door
I am approaching the metaphorical door, signifying a crucial moment.
It's pretty late, I need to go
Considering the late hour, it's time for me to leave.
Do I shout it out, do I let it go?
Contemplating whether to express my feelings loudly or to remain silent.
Do I need to know what I'm waiting for?
Uncertain about the necessity of knowing what I am waiting for.
Oh no, I want it now, do I need it now?
Expressing a desire for immediate fulfillment, questioning the urgency.
Shit goes on and on and on and on and on
Reflecting on the perpetual nature of challenges and difficulties.
I'm pretty good at making things out of the scene
Skilled at interpreting situations and redirecting blame towards myself.
And turning problems back to me
Capable of turning problems back onto my own experiences.
It's not the way I want to be
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current state of being.
But I've been thinking about the time you came around
Recalling a past moment when someone uplifted me from a low point.
You took my head up off the ground
Acknowledging the positive impact of the person who intervened.
Now that's a place I want to be
Expressing a desire to be in that uplifting place once again.
Do I shout it out, do I let it go?
Revisiting the decision of whether to vocalize emotions or remain silent.
Do I need to know what I'm waiting for?
Questioning the need to understand what I am anticipating.
Oh no, I want it now, do I need it now?
Expressing a desire for immediate fulfillment, questioning the urgency again.
Shit goes on and on and on and on and on
(Repetition of the idea that challenges persist)
