Waiting for the Sun
Yearning Rays: Queer Jane's Emotional Journey Under the Sun
Lyrics
I don't even know how
I am unsure of how I ended up in my current situation.
I got here in the first place
Reflecting on my journey, I question the path that led me here.
A million looks in the mirror
I've looked at myself in the mirror a million times but can't recognize the person I've become.
Couldn't recognise this face
My identity has changed to the point where I don't see myself clearly.
And it's breaking
Emotionally, I am causing pain to everyone I've ever known.
Every heart I've known
This pain is pervasive and affects every heart I've encountered.
This rain must soon be done
Despite the current difficulties, I believe the tough times will pass.
I've been waiting for the sun
I have been patiently waiting for a positive change or resolution.
Too long
However, the waiting has been prolonged, and it feels like it's been too long.
The angel from your cupboard
A reference to an angel from the speaker's cupboard who cannot assist in expressing their feelings through a song.
Wouldn't help me sing my song
Alcohol is condemned, suggesting a recognition of its negative impact.
Alcohol is bad
Drinking alcohol is considered morally wrong.
And drinking alcohol is wrong
And it's breaking
Reiteration of the widespread emotional distress caused by the speaker.
Every heart I've known
Hope for an end to the current difficulties, anticipating an improvement.
This rain must soon be done
Repetition of the speaker's patient wait for a positive change.
I've been waiting for the sun
The waiting has felt excessively prolonged.
Too long
I can't feel such
The speaker cannot feel beauty as someone else does.
Beauty like you do
The reason is attributed to a lack of perception or understanding.
Cause I don't see much
The speaker doesn't find much beauty in others, except for a specific person.
In anyone but you
The mentioned person is exceptional in the eyes of the speaker.
Suddenly a man comes in
A new character enters, claiming to understand the speaker's desires.
And he knows what i want
The speaker's desires are simple, represented by a glass of tea and a cup of gin.
A glass of tea a cup of gin
The mention of "half blond" may symbolize a superficial or incomplete understanding of the speaker's needs.
And everything half blond
Despite the newcomer's attempt to fulfill the speaker's desires, there's an implication of shallowness or insufficiency.
And it's breaking
Repetition of the emotional pain affecting everyone the speaker knows.
Every heart I've known
Continued impact of the speaker's emotional struggles on others.
This rain must soon be done
Hope for an end to the current difficulties persists.
I've been waiting for the sun
Repetition of the speaker's patient wait for a positive change.
This rain must soon be done
Reiteration that the challenging times will eventually pass.
I've been waiting for the sun
The speaker has been waiting for a positive change for an extended period.
This rain must soon be done
Repetition of the speaker's enduring wait for a resolution.
I've been waiting for the sun
The extended waiting has become burdensome for the speaker.
Too long
