Troubled Mind
Unveiling the Depths: Noah Linker's Troubled Mind
Lyrics
Scratch the surface 'cause it's shiny
Scratch the surface to reveal its superficial shine.
Your paint chips off slowly and slightly
The outer layer (paint) is gradually peeling off.
You know all the words that you just said
Awareness of the words spoken, perhaps implying self-reflection.
Don't forget
An admonition to remember something important.
That what you choose is what you get
Emphasizing the consequences of one's choices.
'Cause every day you show your face
Every day, presenting oneself to the world.
Could you find that in a warm embrace
Seeking comfort or solace in a warm embrace.
All the answers lie inside your troubled mind
Suggesting that solutions lie within one's troubled thoughts.
The things you do that people tune out
Engaging in actions that go unnoticed or ignored by others.
Perhaps it's true you shoo the spoon now too
Possibly avoiding certain responsibilities or tasks.
See me always looking smiley
Presenting a happy facade despite inner knowledge.
But I know something that you might be
Awareness of something others might not perceive.
Looking out to get or just reject
Contemplating whether to pursue or reject something.
I won't forget
A pledge not to forget the love received.
All the love you've given me
Recalling the affection and care provided by others.
'Cause every day you show your face
Repetition of the daily presentation to the world.
Could you find that in a warm embrace?
Seeking warmth and understanding from others.
All the answers lie inside your troubled mind
Reiteration of inner solutions within a troubled mind.
The things you do that people tune out
Repetition of actions going unnoticed by people.
Perhaps it's true you shoo the spoon now too
Repeating the idea of avoiding certain responsibilities.
Don't forget
A reminder of the consequences of choices made.
That what you choose is what you get
Reiteration of the relationship between choices and outcomes.
'Cause every day you show your face
Repetition of the daily self-presentation to the world.
Could you find that in a warm embrace?
Seeking warmth and comfort in human connection.
All the answers lie inside your troubled mind
Emphasizing the internal solutions within a troubled mind.
Things you do that people tune out
Repetition of actions being ignored by others.
Perhaps it's true you shoo the spoon now too
Repetition of avoiding certain responsibilities.
'Cause every day you show your face
Reiteration of the daily self-presentation to the world.
Could you find that in a warm embrace
Seeking warmth and understanding from others, again.
All the answers lie inside your troubled mind
Reaffirmation of internal solutions within a troubled mind.
The things you do that people tune out
Repetition of actions going unnoticed by people.
Perhaps it's true you shoo the spoon out too
Repetition of avoiding certain responsibilities.
