Papa Lasagna's Fine Italian Dining
Lost in Papa Lasagna's Melancholy: A Tale of Reflection
Lyrics
It seems like years since I have talked with you
Reflecting on a long time since the last conversation.
I don't know where the hell I'm walking to
Feeling lost and uncertain about the direction in life.
I see the streetlight shining on the ground
Observing a streetlight illuminating the ground.
The raindrops falling are the only sound
Noticing raindrops as the only audible presence.
I'm bussing tables for the customers
Working as a table busser in a dining establishment.
Subpar Italian food is getting worse
Expressing dissatisfaction with the quality of Italian food.
Five nights a week over at Papa's place
Consistently working at Papa's place five nights a week.
You left me here you're gone without a trace
Feeling abandoned by someone who left without a trace.
Is it you or is it me?
Pondering whether the situation is about the speaker or the other person.
Is this all just a dream?
Questioning the reality of the experiences, wondering if it's a dream.
'Cause I can't seem to let it go
Struggling to let go of a certain situation or emotion.
It's in the way you look at me
Emphasizing the impact of the way someone looks at the speaker.
I'm perplexed by the way you see
Feeling confused or intrigued by the other person's perspective.
It leaves me feeling so alone
Experiencing a sense of loneliness based on the other person's gaze.
Papa Lasagna, it still pays my rent
Acknowledging that working at Papa Lasagna's pays the bills.
I feel my time could've been better spent
Expressing a belief that time could have been used more wisely.
Is it you or is it me?
Repeating the questioning of whether the situation involves the speaker or the other person.
Is this all just a dream?
Reiterating the uncertainty about the reality of the situation.
'Cause I can't seem to let it go
Continuing to grapple with difficulty in letting go.
It's in the way you look at me
Highlighting the impact of the other person's gaze on the speaker.
I'm perplexed by the way you see
Expressing confusion or bewilderment regarding the other person's viewpoint.
It leaves me feeling so alone
Reiterating the sense of loneliness caused by the other person's perception.
Even if I had no knees
Contemplating a hypothetical situation of having no knees.
Even if I were set free
Considering the notion of being set free without a clear direction.
I wouldn't know just where to go
Expressing uncertainty about where to go even if liberated.
