Wrong River
Navigating Love's Terrain: Conflicting Paths and Choices
Lyrics
I'm tryna map out my love for you
I am attempting to define my feelings of love for you.
I don't know where it began
I am unsure of the origin or starting point of our relationship.
We're going walking at Shark River soon
We plan to take a walk at Shark River soon.
Geography I understand
I have a good understanding of geography.
Please tell me where the line is drawn in the sand
Please clarify the boundaries or limits in our relationship.
I can't see it anymore
I am unable to perceive those limits anymore.
Is it too much to ask for you to have this conversation
Is it too much to request a conversation about this?
Or has your head also been resting on that door
Or is your mind preoccupied with other concerns?
You go on writing songs about the wrong river
You continue to focus on the wrong aspects in your creative work.
I'll be burning my bridges
I will be severing my connections or relationships.
You keep on foraging for mushrooms in the forest
You persist in searching for insignificant things in life.
I'll keep on pulling off ticks
I will be dealing with more practical or pressing matters.
I swear you saw that movie cause you warned me of the party scene
You seem to have experienced a similar situation in a movie.
And when the girl would get sick
Specifically, a scene where a girl falls ill.
You said "I really think you'll love it friend, it's gay enough"
You suggested I would enjoy it because it has elements you consider 'gay.'
And I said "there is no such thing"
I disagreed, claiming there's no such categorization.
You go on writing songs about the wrong river
Your creative focus remains on irrelevant or misguided themes.
I'll be building my bridges
I will be constructing and strengthening my connections.
You keep on foraging for mushrooms in the forest
You persist in pursuing trivial or unimportant endeavors.
I'll keep on pulling off ticks
I will be addressing and resolving more significant issues.
You go on writing songs about the wrong river
Your creative work continues to miss the mark or focus on the wrong things.
I'll be harmonizing
I will be creating a harmonious or balanced expression.
You keep on being there whenever I call for you
You consistently make yourself available when I need you.
I'll keep writing what I miss
I will continue expressing what I long for or miss.
