Lyrics
Peace at the garden
Expressing a sense of tranquility or calmness in a garden
I was a cute kid then
Reflecting on a childhood characterized by innocence
I’ve been posing Madonna away
Engaging in a form of self-expression or escapism similar to Madonna
Open like cupid
Being open or vulnerable, like the mythical figure Cupid
Heaven that you can bare
Describing a heavenly experience that is bearable or endurable
I’ve been posing Madonna away
Continuing the theme of self-expression or escapism through Madonna
I believe that the absence can make a change
Believing in the transformative power of absence to bring about change
I know that you notice when I’m away
Awareness of the impact one's absence has on others
I give you my word that I’ll hold the space
Committing to holding a space or maintaining a connection
I’ll always be closer away
Expressing a constant closeness despite physical distance
The leaves have turned colour
Observing changes in surroundings symbolized by turning leaves
Since you have been away
Noting a shift in life since the absence of a significant person
I’ve been living slumber
Living in a state of slumber or numbness, trying to suppress rage
Trying to dim out all my rage
Struggling with emotional turmoil and attempting to subdue it
Well I’m in Missouri
Physically located in Missouri, setting a scene for the narrative
A slow kind of day
Describing a slow-paced or uneventful day in Missouri
A distant sonnet
Referring to a distant sonnet, possibly a metaphor for lost connections
For the ones who went away
Dedicating a sonnet to those who have departed or gone away
I believe that the absence can make a change
Reiterating the belief in the transformative power of absence
And I know that you notice when I’m away
Reaffirming the awareness of the impact of one's absence on others
And I give you my word that I’ll hold the space
Recommitting to holding a space or maintaining a connection
I’ll always be closer away
Emphasizing the perpetual closeness despite physical distance
Give you my word, Summer
Pledging a commitment or promise for the duration of summer
Give you my word, Away
Repeating the commitment or promise for being away
Give you my word for the summer (For the ones who went away)
Pledging a commitment or promise specifically for the summer and those who went away
Give you my word, Away
Repeating the commitment or promise for being away
Give you my word for the summer
Pledging a commitment or promise for the duration of summer
Give you my word, Away
Repeating the commitment or promise for being away
Give you my word for the summer (For the ones who went away)
Pledging a commitment or promise specifically for the summer and those who went away
Give you my word, Always
Repeating the commitment of always being there
Give you my word for the summer
Pledging a commitment or promise for the duration of summer
Give you my word, Away
Repeating the commitment or promise for being away
Give you my word for the summer (For the ones who went away)
Pledging a commitment or promise specifically for the summer and those who went away
Give you my word Always
Repeating the commitment of always being there
