and it hurts to remember
Expressing emotional pain associated with remembering a hurtful event.
The way you left us so cold that day
Reflecting on a cold, emotionally distant departure.
And now I'm drowning my soul
Struggling with inner turmoil and emotional distress.
I hope you're no longer alone
Wishing the person who caused pain is no longer suffering alone.
Had a skinful could barely stand
Having consumed a significant amount of alcohol, affecting stability.
Your water falling through my trembling hands
Describing the difficulty of holding onto something precious (water) in a shaky state.
Carved in wood

And it hurts to remember
Reflecting on the emotional coldness experienced on a particular day.
The way you left us so cold that day

And now I'm drowning my soul
Wishing the person who caused pain is no longer suffering alone.
I hope you're no longer alone
Having consumed a significant amount of alcohol, affecting stability.
Had a skinful could barely stand

Your water falling through my trembling hands
Empty line, possibly indicating a pause or moment of reflection.
And are you outside, outside looking in
Expressing the irreversible change in a relationship, acknowledging it can never be the same.
And it can never be the same again
Accepting the need to let go of the past and move forward.
I gotta let you go
Deciding to stop drowning in sorrow and emotional distress.
And now I'll stop drowning my soul
No more hiding from the consequences or evading responsibility.
I know you're no longer alone
Acknowledging and facing the emotional pain without hiding.
No more hiding empty cans
Ending the practice of concealing emotional vulnerability.
No more hiding from your trembling
No longer avoiding or escaping the emotional tremors.
