No New Deaths Today
Unexpected Echoes: Embracing Life Amidst Loss
Lyrics
With no new deaths today
Expressing relief or surprise that there are no new deaths on this day.
It took me by surprise
The absence of new deaths catches the speaker off guard.
And it reminds me of
Reflecting on the current situation brings to mind the unexpected death of someone.
You're untimely demise
Referring to the untimely death of a person, possibly someone close to the speaker.
Is this a turn of phrase
Questioning if the phrase used is a figurative expression that the speaker must come to terms with.
With which I have to live
Acceptance of a challenging circumstance that the speaker must endure.
Right now a single care
In the current state, the speaker is emotionally drained and unable to provide more than minimal care.
Is more than I can give
Expressing the emotional difficulty of caring beyond one's capacity at the moment.
No praying hands
Acknowledging that no amount of prayer or solace can erase the pain and sorrow.
Can wipe our tears away
Suggesting a plan or strategy to persevere and live through the challenges.
Here is a plan
There is no comfort in religious or consoling gestures; a practical plan is needed for survival.
To live another day
Proposing a structured approach to navigate life and overcome hardships.
I meant to see you
Expressing regret for not seeing the person in time to bid farewell.
In time to say goodbye
The importance of saying goodbye on time is emphasized.
You know it's not a thing
Stressing the honesty in acknowledging difficult situations, especially concerning farewells.
About which I would lie
Reiterating the sincerity of the speaker, asserting that honesty prevails over falsehood.
And now
Transitioning to the present state of dealing with the aftermath of loss.
Everyday
Every day becomes a commemoration of the things the speaker envisioned about the departed person.
Is a tribute
Each day is a tribute, likely involving memories or reflections, to the person who has passed away.
To all the things
Reflecting on the speaker's imaginative thoughts related to the departed individual.
I imagined
Continuing the theme of thoughts and images associated with the person who is no longer present.
Of you
Concluding with the lasting impact and influence of the departed person in the speaker's mind.
