Lyrics
I don't know what to do without you
Expressing uncertainty and a sense of loss without the presence of the person addressed.
I don't know where to put my hands
Feeling unsure or uncomfortable in the absence of guidance or connection.
I've been trying to lay my head down
Attempting to find solace or rest, possibly emotionally, but facing difficulties.
But I'm writing this at three AM
Indicating a moment of introspection or emotional turmoil, highlighted by the late-night time reference.
I don't need the world to see
Expressing a desire for privacy or not needing external validation for personal efforts.
That I've been the best I can be, but
Acknowledging personal growth or self-improvement without seeking external approval.
I don't think I could stand to be
Expressing discomfort or difficulty with the idea of being unnoticed or overlooked.
Where you don't see me
Highlighting the importance of being recognized or seen by someone specific.
On sunny days I go out walking
Describing a routine or habit of walking, possibly as a form of coping or reflection.
I end up on a tree-lined street
Finding oneself in a familiar or comforting environment, possibly seeking solace.
I look up at the gaps of sunlight
Noticing gaps in positivity or happiness, with a yearning for the absent person.
I miss you more than anything
Expressing a deep emotional longing for the person addressed.
I don't need the world to see
Reiterating the theme of personal growth without needing external validation.
That I've been the best I can be, but
Emphasizing self-improvement while hinting at a fear of being unnoticed.
I don't think I could stand to be
Echoing discomfort with the idea of being unobserved or overlooked.
Where you don't see me
Stressing the significance of being seen or acknowledged by a specific person.
And autumn comes when you're not yet done
Symbolizing a transitional phase or change, possibly mirroring emotional seasons.
With the summer passing by, but
Expressing the feeling of time passing while facing unresolved emotions.
I don't think I could stand to be
Reiterating discomfort with the idea of being unnoticed, especially during a transitional period.
Where you don't see me
Stressing the importance of being seen or acknowledged, even during challenging times.
