Soul's Struggle: Molly Parmenter's Reflection on Inner Turmoil
Lyrics
What is this thing
Expressing confusion or curiosity about something.
Inside of me
Reflecting on an internal experience or emotion.
I feel awkward here
Feeling uncomfortable or out of place in the current situation.
In my own body
Sensing a disconnection with one's own physical self.
Been away too long
Acknowledging a prolonged absence and its impact on perspective.
Now nothin' sits right
Expressing a sense of unease or dissatisfaction.
But if I stay gone
Contemplating the consequences of staying away for too long.
Do I leave you behind
Questioning the effect of one's absence on others.
And honey if you asked me to throw it all away
Willingness to make sacrifices if requested by a significant other.
And get the hell out of this place
Desire to escape from the current environment.
Well honey I would, gladly
Expressing a readiness to make sacrifices willingly.
Because it takes and takes and takes and takes
Commenting on the relentless nature of life's demands.
What is this thing
Reiteration of the internal struggle or confusion.
Inside of me
Reflecting on a mysterious aspect within oneself.
Maybe it's the fear
Suggesting a fear or hesitation about achieving personal identity.
Of bein' somebody
Identifying a specific source of anxiety or uncertainty.
Maybe it's that song
Linking a lifelong commitment to a particular narrative or belief.
I've been singin' all my life
Questioning the reliability of a consistently positive perspective.
That nothin's ever wrong
Contradicting the notion that everything is always okay.
But nothin's ever right
Highlighting the persistent struggle between extremes.
And honey if you asked me to throw it all away
Reiteration of a willingness to make sacrifices for a loved one.
And get the hell out of this place
Reaffirming the desire to escape from the current circumstances.
Well honey I would, gladly
Emphasizing the readiness to make sacrifices willingly.
Because it takes and takes and takes and takes
Repeating the idea of life's continuous demands.
What is this thing
Reiterating the presence of an enigmatic element within.
Inside of me
Reflecting on the internal struggle's impact on behavior.
Well it's got me fighting
Describing a fight for mental stability or well-being.
For my own sanity
Expressing a realization of a gradual loss of control.
And I think that I am
Recognizing personal challenges and obstacles.
Losing slowly
Expressing a desire to change or evolve.
I think that I
Indicating uncertainty about personal growth.
Want to be
Expressing a longing or aspiration.
But honey if you asked me to throw it all away
Reaffirming the willingness to make sacrifices for a loved one.
And get the hell out of this place
Reiterating the desire to escape from the current circumstances.
Well honey I would, gladly
Emphasizing the readiness to make sacrifices willingly.
Because it takes and takes and takes and takes
Repeating the idea of life's continuous demands.
It takes and takes and takes and takes
Underlining the relentless nature of life's challenges.
It takes and takes and takes and takes
Concluding the repetition of life's demanding nature.
