Love As Loss
Love's Painful Echo: Embracing Loss and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
With bloodshot eyes I embrace reflection
Expressing emotional distress and self-reflection with bloodshot eyes.
The feeling of old is withered away
The sensation of the past is fading or diminishing.
Tho tragedy grants me clarity
Tragedy provides insight or understanding.
I'm only losing myself when I think of you
Thinking about the person referred to causes self-loss or identity struggle.
And I see the way you stare
Observing how the other person looks, possibly distant or detached.
Just like there's no one there
Describing the distant stare as if the person is absent mentally.
Feel like I'm fading away
Feeling a sense of fading or disappearing.
But I find it hard to keep
Struggling to maintain a consistent pace or rhythm in life.
The tempo in mind I need
Expressing the need to stay in sync with oneself.
To keep myself in time
Keeping in time with life's demands.
And i see the way you stare
Reiterating the distant gaze of the other person.
It feels like you're barely there
Feeling like the person being observed is emotionally distant.
Like you've got nothing to say
Suggesting a lack of communication or emotional expression from the other person.
And I can't stand to turn away
Expressing difficulty in turning away or letting go.
The answers aren't so clear
Uncertainty and lack of clarity in finding answers.
Your willingness has brought you here
Acknowledging that the person's choices or actions have led them to the current situation.
Search further and you will find
Encouraging further exploration to discover the reasons for loving life.
What makes you love your life
Searching for meaning and purpose in life.
And I see the way you stare
Repeating the theme of a distant or absent gaze from the other person.
Just like there's no one there
Describing the stare as if the person is not emotionally present.
Feel like I'm fading away
Reiterating the feeling of fading away.
But I find it hard to keep
Struggling to maintain a consistent tempo or pace in life.
The tempo in mind I need
Emphasizing the need to keep pace with oneself.
To keep myself in time
Maintaining synchronization with life's demands.
And i see the way you stare
Repeating the idea of the emotionally distant gaze.
It feels like you're barely there
Expressing the feeling that the person is barely emotionally present.
Like you've got nothing to say
Suggesting a lack of communication or emotional expression from the other person.
And I can't stand to turn away
Reiterating the difficulty in turning away or letting go.
I've let my myself spiral out of control
Acknowledging a loss of self-control and the end of a significant love.
I've lost the only love I've known
Repeating the theme of losing the only love known.
I've let my myself spiral out of control
Emphasizing the loss of control and the end of a significant love.
And lost the only love I've known
Reiterating the theme of losing the only love known.
These past mistakes are mine to own
Taking responsibility for past mistakes and accepting ownership.
A life without you breaks my soul
Expressing the heartbreak caused by life without the person.
So now my heart is breaking on its own
Describing the internal pain and sorrow of a broken heart.
Shattered into pieces with nowhere to go
Metaphorically depicting the heart as shattered with no direction.
This heart will never be our home
Conveying that the heart will not be a place of comfort or love.
Through these trials I had to learn my self control
Highlighting the necessity of self-control during challenging times.
By understanding love as loss
Understanding love as a form of loss or sacrifice.
It's a thorn that I hope you never know
Expressing a hope that the listener avoids the painful experience of love as a thorn.
These memories of love will never go
Acknowledging that memories of love will persist despite the pain.
