Navigating Love's Evolution: Reflecting on Relationships' Fragility
Lyrics
Does our love hold a candle
Questioning if our love compares to the past.
To the way it was years ago?
Reflecting on how it used to be years ago.
Would we even know?
Uncertain if we would recognize the love now.
Could we see its growth
Wondering if we can perceive its development.
Or are we way too close?
Concerned if we are too emotionally involved.
Are we sure that this can handle
Questioning the capability of our love to adapt.
This change in the way we perceive
Contemplating a change in perception within the relationship.
Or is our love such a fragile thing
Considering if our love is fragile.
To even bring this up
Hesitant to discuss potential issues in the relationship.
Sets the flame flickering
Fearful that addressing problems may jeopardize the relationship.
And now our burns have clearly
Acknowledging that emotional wounds have progressed.
Moved beyond the 1st degree
Physical and emotional burns have deepened.
Will the scars hurt like these new injuries?
Wondering if past scars will hurt as much as new issues.
This history is substantial
Recognizing the significance of the shared history.
Yeah it seems this flame is all we've ever known
Suggesting that the relationship is primarily defined by passion.
But if it's guttering, yeah is it a gamble
Questioning the stability of the relationship.
Is staying put better than being alone?
Considering if maintaining the status quo is preferable to loneliness.
We could call an ending or just never say what we mean
Weighing the option of ending the relationship without clear communication.
Hold our tongues and cut fresh wounds to bleed
Choosing silence over discussing issues, causing additional pain.
We're well aware of where the other is weak
Acknowledging each other's vulnerabilities in the relationship.
By now we both should know better than that.
Recognizing a need for better understanding and communication.
Shouldn't we?
Questioning if improvement is necessary.
We both know that we need this flame to see
Acknowledging the importance of the relationship for growth and clarity.
A way out of the dark to heal our injuries
Seeking the relationship as a source of healing from life's challenges.
