Shadows
Unveiling Identity: Shadows of Self-Discovery in Plastic Water Gun's Melody
Lyrics
Do I even know who I'm meant to be
Questioning one's own identity and purpose in life.
Do I even know my own identity
Doubting familiarity with one's own characteristics and individuality.
I'm keeping the ones I love so close
Keeping close ties with loved ones.
But is it even worth it if I'm losing my shadow
Wondering if maintaining relationships is worthwhile if it means losing one's essence or true self.
And all I needed was a smile from the ones I love
Seeking validation and happiness through affection from loved ones.
Cause I'm afraid I'll never be worthy of
Fearing inadequacy or not being deserving of love and acceptance.
Being the one
Aspiring to be someone significant.
Being the one
Repeated aspiration to be significant, perhaps emphasizing the desire for importance.
Who knew these feelings that I've bottled are here to stay
Acknowledging suppressed emotions that persist.
The sounds of my screams are muffled and I'm not okay
Feeling unheard or unable to express distress.
Was the hole in the wall enough for you to see
Questioning if signs of inner turmoil are noticeable to others.
That I'm not as happy as I put out to be
Admitting the disparity between outward appearance and inner emotions.
Oh then maybe, you could see that a hand could go a long way
Suggesting the impact of a supportive gesture in times of need.
Without it, I don't know if I can stay
Expressing uncertainty about sustaining oneself without support.
Being the one
Reiterating the desire to be significant or valued.
Being the one
Repeating the desire to be valued or recognized as important.
Cause all I needed was a smile from the ones I love
Expressing the need for love and validation from loved ones.
Cause I'm afraid I'll never be worthy of
Continuing to fear being unworthy of love and acceptance.
Being the one
Desiring to be significant or valued.
Being the one
Reiterating the desire for importance or recognition.
And so I've learned that I can be enough
Realizing self-worth and capability to support others.
If you let me help you through the rough
Expressing willingness to help loved ones through difficult times.
My happy place is buried behind you
Personal happiness dependent on the well-being of others.
As long as you're feeling good I am too
Being content when loved ones are content.
I am the one
Acknowledging oneself as significant or important.
You are the one
Acknowledging the significance of the other person.
You are the one
Reiteration of the significance of the other person.
You are the one
-I am the one
Acknowledgment of one's own significance or importance.
Cause all I needed was a smile from the ones I love
Desire for love and validation from loved ones reiterated.
Cause I'm afraid I'd never be worthy of
Continuing to fear being unworthy of love and acceptance.
Being the one
Desiring to be significant or valued.
Being the one
Reiterating the desire for importance or recognition.
Cause all I needed was a smile from the ones I love
Desire for love and validation from loved ones reiterated.
Cause I'm afraid I'd never be worthy of
Continuing to fear being unworthy of love and acceptance.
Being the one
Desiring to be significant or valued.
Being the one
Reiterating the desire for importance or recognition.
