Red String Map
Navigating Love's Maze: Redefining Paths and Embracing Imperfections
Lyrics
I'm craving a distraction
I desire a diversion or something to take my mind off things
Let's see some fucking action in this place
Expressing a need for excitement or change in the current situation
Do you remember back when
Reflecting on a past time
We said I love you every other day
Recalling a period when expressions of love were frequent
I don't wanna have your babies
Rejecting the idea of having children with the partner
Expectations I will never meet
Acknowledging inability to meet certain expectations
I think your family hates me
Suspecting disapproval from the partner's family
My upstairs neighbors
Observing the activities of neighbors upstairs
Pacing back and forth
Describing the constant movement or restlessness of the neighbors
I feel less lonely
Feeling a reduction in loneliness due to the neighbors' actions
Red string map of the things that I lack
Mentioning a symbolic "red string map" representing deficiencies
Pinpoint what went wrong and pick up the slack
Expressing a desire to identify and rectify past mistakes or shortcomings
I was in a bad way
Describing a period of personal difficulty
When you found me I was truly a wreck
Acknowledging the partner's role in finding and helping during a challenging time
Cutting corners, laughing
Engaging in risky or careless behavior with a sense of humor
Concentrating not to jump on the tracks
Focusing on avoiding self-destructive actions
I wanna make you happy
Expressing a desire to bring happiness to the partner
But counting all the ways it could go wrong
Acknowledging the potential challenges or ways things could go wrong
Brain brimming with concrete
Feeling mentally overwhelmed with details or concerns
Counting down every hour til I can go to sleep
Counting down the hours until bedtime, possibly indicating impatience or anticipation
Making promises that I know I will never keep
Making promises with awareness that they may not be kept
How many times can I say Let's not talk about it
Repeating a desire to avoid discussing a certain topic
I feel most like myself when you can't tell I'm a chick
Feeling authentic when not conforming to stereotypical gender expectations
