Old Friend
Embracing Solitude: Unveiling the Poignant Reflections of 'Old Friend'
Lyrics
Hold my heart close in your hands
Expressing vulnerability, asking to keep their heart close.
Tell me you don't think it's made of sand
Doubting the durability of love, seeking reassurance.
When all of my love seems to slip through the cracks
Feeling love slipping away, struggling to maintain connection.
Feel the warmth close to my skin
Sensing warmth, but unable to fully embrace it.
Why can't I seem to let it in?
Questioning difficulty in accepting and experiencing love.
When all of my thoughts seem to stall and relax
Thoughts stagnate, finding it hard to move forward.
Oldest friend, does anybody notice you?
Asking if the oldest friend (perhaps time) goes unnoticed.
And what if I led you astray?
Contemplating the consequences of leading someone astray.
Left you in love with no other way
Leaving someone in love without an alternative path.
To have and to hold, no one bothered today
Reflecting on the lack of attention to commitment and care.
So would you lie there?
Pondering on whether one would endure the consequences.
Waiting for someone to call you?
Waiting for connection, possibly a call for reconciliation.
Every moment spent all alone
Highlighting the difficulty of solitary moments.
Is learning how to live on your own
Emphasizing the learning process of living independently.
What if I led you astray?
Reiterating the consequences of leading someone astray.
Left you in love with no other way
Leaving love with no alternative, echoing regret.
To have and to hold, no one bothered today
Observing the neglect of commitment and responsibility.
So would you lie there?
Repeating the question of waiting for connection.
Waiting for someone to call you?
Reiterating the loneliness of waiting for someone.
Every moment spent all alone
Stressing the challenging nature of solitary moments.
Is learning how to live on your own
Repeating the process of learning to live independently.
Oldest friend, does anybody notice you?
Asking if the oldest friend is recognized or acknowledged.
