In Between
Navigating Shadows: My American Heart's In Between
Lyrics
The lights go on,
The event or situation begins.
The scene is overcrowded.
The setting is too crowded, overwhelming.
It takes my mind away,
This experience distracts or captivates my mind.
It takes my mind away.
Reiteration of the impact on the mind.
They raise their hands,
People are expressing enthusiasm or support.
It's time to give it all we've got.
It's time to give maximum effort or energy.
It helps me to forget,
Engaging in this helps in forgetting something.
It helps me to forget.
Reiterating the effect of distraction.
Everything I said I wanted,
All the things I desired or mentioned.
Everything I said I need,
All that I believed I require.
Left me here to wait for you,
Being left behind while waiting for someone.
And now I'm stuck here in between.
Feeling stuck in an in-between state.
The light is dark,
The environment seems bleak or uncertain.
I'm in a distant memory.
Feeling disconnected in a distant past memory.
Was it you or just a dream?
Questioning the reality of an experience.
Was it you or just a dream?
Reiteration of questioning the experience's reality.
I count the weeks, (I count the weeks.)
Counting time passing by.
The days, the hours, still I'll be,
Even after the count, being alone remains.
Be alone with you,
Aloneness with a specific person.
Be alone with you.
Reiteration of being alone with that person.
Everything I said I wanted,
All the desires or needs reiterated.
Everything I said I need,
Reiterating the things considered necessary.
Left me here to wait for you,
Left waiting while stuck in the middle.
And now I'm stuck here in between.
Reiteration of feeling stuck in between.
If I had another chance,
If there was a chance for change.
If I could do it all again.
If there was an opportunity for a redo.
I don't know how I'd change a thing.
Uncertainty about changing anything.
I'd still be stuck here in between.
Even after change, still stuck in the in-between.
I see the way you stare,
Observing someone's gaze or look.
So easy love in fell.
Love seems easy and carefree in that gaze.
The skies don't bleed anymore,
A metaphorical description - no turmoil or chaos.
The skies don't bleed anymore.
Reiteration of calmness in the skies.
Everything I said I wanted,
Reiteration of desires or wants expressed.
Everything I said I need,
Reiterating what's considered necessary.
Left me here to wait for you,
Reiteration of waiting and feeling stuck.
And now I'm stuck here in between.
Reiteration of being stuck in the in-between.
If I had another chance,
If given another opportunity.
If I could do it all again.
If a chance to redo everything.
I don't know how I'd change a thing.
Uncertain about changing anything.
I'd still be stuck here in between, in between.
Even after change, remaining stuck in between.
