Years
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Struggle in 'Years' by Neatly Drawn Blinds
Lyrics
Years waiting on the sun
Anticipation and longing for a positive change or enlightenment over time.
To make me light
Desire for personal transformation or enlightenment to bring light into one's life.
That's why I turned into a sufferer
The speaker became a sufferer, possibly indicating a choice to endure hardship for personal growth.
Instead of making up my mind
Choosing ambiguity or indecision over making a clear decision.
And giving back to the fight
A willingness to engage in a struggle or conflict, but struggling with commitment.
Never could control
Lack of control over life events or circumstances.
The things that befell me
Reflecting on uncontrollable events that have happened.
That's why I turned into a loner
Becoming isolated or detached, possibly as a response to uncontrollable situations.
Reaching out for the things that compelled me
Seeking or reaching out for things that have a compelling influence.
But I had hands that failed to grasp the weight
Having the desire to grasp significant opportunities or responsibilities but facing physical limitations.
All feelings aside
Prioritizing rationality over emotions.
Are you gonna look for me tonight?
Questioning if someone will actively search for the speaker tonight.
Everything to the side
Putting aside all other considerations or distractions.
Are you gonna get close to me?
Asking if someone will approach the speaker intimately or emotionally.
All parties in line
Everyone being ready or in agreement.
Are you gonna dance with me tonight?
Asking if someone will join the speaker in dancing tonight.
Everything on the fire
Putting everything on the line, possibly risking it all.
Are you gonna be the one for me?
Asking if someone will be the one for the speaker, taking a significant role in their life.
All feelings aside
Reiterating the choice to prioritize rationality over emotions.
Are you gonna look for me tonight?
Repeating the question of whether someone will actively seek the speaker tonight.
Everything to the side
Reiterating the act of putting aside distractions or considerations.
Are you gonna get close to me?
Repeating the question of whether someone will approach the speaker intimately or emotionally.
All parties in line
Repeating the idea of everyone being ready or in agreement.
Are you gonna dance with me tonight?
Repeating the question of whether someone will join the speaker in dancing tonight.
Everything on the fire
Reiterating the act of putting everything on the line, possibly risking it all.
Are you gonna be the one for me?
Repeating the question of whether someone will be the one for the speaker, taking a significant role in their life.
