Lyrics

Subtle spark

A subtle awakening or realization

Try to wake up in the dark

Attempting to understand or navigate difficulties without clarity or guidance

The siren song

A seductive or alluring influence

Tells me that I want your tongue

Feeling drawn to someone's words or persuasion

For better or for worse

Indicating commitment regardless of circumstances

Champagne in a hearse is where it ends

Metaphor for a tragic ending despite celebratory elements

Ironically enough

Contradiction between situations or intentions

She's had too much to drink

A person intoxicated or overwhelmed

I'm catching up

Trying to match someone's level or catch up emotionally

I wanna tell her what I think

Desire to express one's thoughts or feelings

I hope to see where this thing goes

Hopeful anticipation about the development of a situation

Been standing on my toes

Experiencing discomfort or strain due to anticipation

They're going numb

Numbness resulting from prolonged tension or stress

The fake embrace of what you own

False comfort derived from material possessions or status

Losing teeth from what I thought would pull me up

Disillusionment or disappointment from relying on something expected to uplift

The silence lasted forever

A prolonged period of quiet or absence of communication

Forever wasn't long enough

The lengthy silence seemed insufficient or unfulfilling

Tell me why

Seeking an explanation or reason

The bottle neatly in my pocket is never dry

A constant reliance on something to escape or cope

It's like the oil lamp I've used too many times

An analogy for repeatedly turning to a flawed solution

And I can't help sharing your disguise

Identifying with someone's false appearance or persona

The fake embrace of what you own

Repeated false comfort from material possessions or status

Losing teeth from what I thought would pull me up

Continued disillusionment or disappointment from false hopes

The silence lasted forever

A recurring extended period of silence or lack of connection

Forever wasn't long enough

Feeling unsatisfied with the duration of the prolonged silence

The fake embrace of what you own

Continued reliance on false comfort derived from possessions or status

Losing teeth from what I thought would pull me up

Continued disappointment from relying on false hopes

The silence lasted forever

Repeated extended periods of silence

Forever wasn't long enough

Feeling unsatisfied with the length of the prolonged silence

The snake oil that's in my head

A metaphorical reference to deceptive or false ideas/thoughts

It eats away my gracefulness

Deceptive thoughts corroding one's elegance or composure

The snake oil that's in my head

Continued reference to deceptive thoughts affecting gracefulness

It eats away my gracefulness

Repeated impact of deceptive thoughts on one's gracefulness
