Must Be Changing
Evolving Reflections: Embracing ChangeLyrics
The weird light shining in your hallway
The unusual light in your hallway
illuminates my sideways grin
Highlights my sideways smile
I fill the empty conversation
I engage in superficial talk to fill the void
with remnants of our fading youth
Referencing remnants of our past youth that's fading away
Overconfident - you want to feel so close to god
You desire to feel a sense of power or closeness to something divine
It's just a burning ambient pain that's weighing down the air you breathe
Expresses a pervasive, discomforting pain in the atmosphere
I must be changing
Repeated chorus indicating acknowledgment of personal change
(All you wanted was)
-I must be changing
-(A different kind of buzz)
-I must be changing
-(Guess everybody does)
-I must be changing
-Now we're drinking at a party
Presently drinking at a social gathering
Laugh about how much we cared
Joking about the intensity of our past emotions
Empty's the only application
Our accumulated knowledge serves no practical purpose
of all our useless learning
Reflects on the futility of what we've learned
All your friends are asking where you've been and how you're doing
Concern from acquaintances about your whereabouts and well-being
There's a faint light, off your jacket, and we all know
Noticing a subtle indication of change in you
Where there's glow there's burn
Suggests consequences follow intense feelings
I must be changing
Repeated chorus emphasizing personal change and external curiosity about your status
(All you wanted was)
-I must be changing
-(A different kind of buzz)
-All your friends are asking where you've been and how you're doing
-There's a faint glow, off your jacket, and it smells like seasons changing
Associates a subtle change in scent with the arrival of a new season
