Lyrics
When it all feels like it's moving too fast
Feeling overwhelmed by the pace of life.
Light the fuse and lean into the blast
Taking action despite the chaos.
You know it's true
A statement acknowledging a truth.
I could see you through that smoke screen
Seeing through deception or pretense.
And I don't need you to explain
Not requiring an explanation.
I'm just an old cord you don't need anymore
Feeling obsolete, like an unused cord.
I wanna love ya but you've changed, yeah
Expressing a desire to love despite changes.
Comin' down while the smoke starts to clear
Descending as clarity emerges after a situation.
Your eyes close while your hands try to see her
Trying to understand or connect despite challenges.
You know it's true
Reiterating a recognized truth.
I could see you through that smoke screen
Perceiving through a deceptive facade.
And I don't need you to explain
Not needing detailed justifications.
I'm just an old cord, tangled on your bedroom floor
Feeling discarded and entangled in the past.
I wanna love ya but you've changed, yeah
Expressing a longing for love amid change.
And I know
A continuation of acknowledging a role.
I'm just an old cord
Being seen as something outdated.
You can throw away
An invitation to discard or let go.
You couldn't try to fix things anymore
Recognizing an inability to repair the relationship.
I wanna love ya but you've changed
Expressing a desire to love amid acknowledged changes.
