Lyrics
Am I weaker than those before me
Questioning personal strength compared to predecessors who face challenges and move forward.
Who take it to the chest and move on
Reflecting on those who handle difficulties resiliently, taking them in stride.
Because I zoom in where I want
Expressing a focus on specific aspects, zooming in on chosen priorities.
Oh, it's where I want
Affirming a preference for a particular situation or state.
But I know that girl is out there
Acknowledging the existence of a specific person ("girl") in the world.
I can knock on her door
Expressing the ability to reach out or approach the mentioned person.
Say welcome back, you're up now
Welcoming the person back and indicating a sense of elevation or improvement.
No, I can't tell you how much more
Unable to quantify or describe the extent of positive change or progress.
But I do get to slip away
Highlighting the ability to escape or find solace.
In a room, in a corner without you
Describing a specific place (room, corner) where the escape happens in the absence of another person.
I do get to slip away, slip away
Reiterating the theme of slipping away from a situation.
I do get to slip away
Emphasizing the recurring nature of slipping away.
In a room, in a corner without you
Repeating the description of the place of escape.
I do get to slip away, slip away
Reiterating the idea of slipping away, indicating a regular occurrence.
And be with you
Expressing a desire to be with the person after slipping away.
But I do get to slip away
Repeating the notion of slipping away, reinforcing its significance.
In a room, in a corner without you
Reiterating the location and frequency of slipping away.
I do get to slip away, slip away
Emphasizing the recurring nature of the act of slipping away.
I do get to slip away
Stating the ability to slip away in the absence of the mentioned person.
In a room, in a corner without you
Repeating the description of the escape location.
I do get to slip away, slip away
Reiterating the regularity of slipping away and the desire to be with the person.
And be with you
Expressing the desire to be with the person after slipping away.
I do get to slip away,
Reiterating the ability to slip away, leaving the line open-ended.
I do get to slip away, slip away
Repeating the idea of slipping away, underscoring its significance.
And be with you
Expressing the desire to be with the person after slipping away.
