Folds in Your Hands
Emotional Unraveling: Folds in Your Hands' Poignant JourneyLyrics
Leave me alone
Expression of a desire to be left alone
Leave me alone
Reiteration of the desire to be left alone
Leave me alone
Continued plea to be left alone
I'm fine
Assertion of being alright
I'll be fine until the morning comes
Belief in being fine until the morning arrives
Then unmask me in the blistering sun
Expectation to be exposed or revealed in harsh conditions
Oh, let me go
Request to be allowed to leave or set free
Just let me go
Repeated plea to be set free
Just let me go
Continued request to be set free
Or I'll
Warning of potential emotional outburst if not allowed freedom
Burst in front of your eyes
Description of an imminent emotional breakdown
Then collect myself from the ground
Intention to gather oneself after a breakdown
And when I go
Expression regarding departure or passing away
And when I go
Reiteration of the desire to depart or pass away
Just let me go
Request to be allowed to leave peacefully
Like a light
Comparison to a light fading away in the sky
Flickering out in the skies
Simile highlighting disappearance as quick as appearance
Lost as fast as was found
Describing a loss or disappearance
Everything is easy when you've never had to choose
Indicates ease in decision-making without prior experience
But the balance has shifted and we're forced to lose
Reference to the change in circumstances leading to inevitable losses
Like the sun and the moon, I will circle you 'til you bloom
Symbolic reference to constant presence around someone until their growth
I will crush, I will maul, I will burn until I get to you
Expresses determination to reach someone despite obstacles
Lay low
Advice to remain inconspicuous or not draw attention
Don't let me know when it's real
Desire to stay unaware of reality
Will they quietly follow me here?
Questioning if others will follow quietly or accept
Take me as their own?
Speculation about being accepted or embraced by others
Now I will hold you I will keep you
Intent to hold and possess someone
I'll control my love
Decision to manage love or feelings
Until it folds in my hands
Continuing love until it fails or collapses
But I'll build it back to the top
Determination to rebuild love or feelings
Everything is easy when you've never had to choose
Indicates ease in decision-making without prior experience (repeated)
But the balance has shifted and we're forced to lose
Reference to the change in circumstances leading to inevitable losses (repeated)
Like the sun and the moon, I will circle you 'til you bloom
Symbolic reference to constant presence around someone until their growth (repeated)
I will crush, I will maul, I will burn until I get to you
Expresses determination to reach someone despite obstacles (repeated)
Feel it rain
Sensation of emotions or experiences falling down
We're alive
Recognition of being alive and experiencing sensations
Feel it rain
Sensory perception of rain, a natural phenomenon
