These Days
Emotions Unraveled: Reflections on Struggles and Longing
Lyrics
Watching your face
Observing your expression
I can't believe I'm still here
Expressing disbelief about still being present or alive
Why did these days
Questioning the reason why these days feel painful or difficult
Bleed like I said
Reflecting on the emotional pain that was previously verbalized
Do you want to take
Inquiring if the listener desires a retrospective examination
A long hard look back
Suggesting a thorough review of the past
To know if I feel right now
Questioning the emotional state at the moment
It's everything
Implying that the current emotional state encompasses everything
We're the life you dreamt such a perfect day
Describing a life that was once envisioned, possibly idealized
I can almost
Indicating a nearly tangible experience
See outside this place
Perceiving something beyond the current situation
That I left alone
Referring to a place left in solitude
Too long ago
Indicating a time elapsed in the past
I don't like the scars how they slip away
Expressing discomfort with the fading scars
Now I'm taking everything you have
Claiming possession of everything the listener owns
Why can't you go away
Questioning the listener's reluctance to depart
I can't stand your face right here now
Expressing displeasure at the immediate presence of the listener
Why can't you go away
Reiterating the desire for the listener to leave
Is this the only place
Pondering if the current location is the sole option
I know I'll hate to find out
Anticipating a negative revelation about the current situation
I could never think of this end
Contemplating an unexpected or undesirable ending
Do you want to tell me
Inviting the listener to share unknown information
Things I don't know
Inquiring about undisclosed details
Before I start the burning inside
Preemptively acknowledging an internal emotional turmoil
We're the life you dreamt such a perfect day
Reiterating the description of an idealized life
I can almost
Recalling a sense of almost experiencing something beyond
See outside this place
Visualizing an external environment left behind
That I left alone
Referring again to a place abandoned in solitude
Too long ago
Reemphasizing the extended duration since the abandonment
I don't like the scars how they slip away
Expressing dissatisfaction with the vanishing scars
Now I'm taking everything you have
Reiterating the claim of taking everything owned by the listener
Why can't you go away
Questioning the persistence of the listener's presence
I can't stand your face right here now
Reiterating displeasure at the current proximity of the listener
Why can't you go away
Restating the desire for the listener to depart
