Lyrics
We'll clear our names before we go
We intend to clear our names before departing.
You'd be shocked to find out what we already know
There are undisclosed facts that would surprise you if known.
So there's no point to the sugar coats
No need for euphemisms; direct communication is preferred.
They're not offering warmth just the comfort in stories you've told
Comfort is found in the familiarity of the stories you've shared, not in genuine warmth.
Like something I just can't decide
Facing a decision that is difficult to make.
You will hang in my head till I make up my mind
Your presence lingers in my thoughts until I decide.
Like a voice in an unfinished room
Similar to an echoing voice in a room that is incomplete or unresolved.
You reverberate slowly as my thought patterns bloom
Your influence gradually expands, shaping my thoughts.
Like a symphony swelling the phrase
Comparable to a swelling symphony, emotions intensify.
Tears will pour from your eyes down the side of your face
Intense emotions, likely sadness, will be evident.
To a chorus of shivering sighs
A chorus of sighs accompanies a significant moment of coming back to reality.
When you finally come down from that adventure behind your eyes
When you return from your introspective journey, the impact is profound.
I promise my intentions were clean
Assuring that the motives were pure and honorable.
But the ghost of the stairwell is haunting my dreams
The lingering presence of something unsettling, possibly a memory or regret.
It just hangs like the smoke in the air
A metaphor for unresolved issues, lingering like smoke.
Just think back to the moment, was it really me who was there
Reflecting on a past moment, questioning one's own presence in that memory.
All you wanted was to read from that book
Acknowledging the desire for knowledge or closure from a particular source.
Who was I to deny you what could be your last look
Recognizing the importance of providing a final opportunity for connection.
At the pages that gave you such strength
The strength derived from shared experiences and memories.
While I'm left without comfort, as you withered away
Feeling left without solace as someone else undergoes a difficult experience.
And I can not wait to understand what you meant
Eager to comprehend the true meaning of a past statement.
When you said you'd leave the light on when you got where you're going
Recalling a promise to keep a symbolic light on for guidance.
So where are you now
An inquiry into the current whereabouts of the person in question.
And does that offer still stand
Questioning if the previously mentioned offer still holds true.
