How Many Teardrops
Echoes of Redemption: How Many Teardrops Unveil a Soul's Journey
Lyrics
Live so close to the bone right now
Expressing a current state of living close to the edge or with minimal resources.
But I know my time is coming
Confident that a positive change or success is on the horizon.
And I wanna know darling who was down
Seeking to identify those who supported during challenging times in the past.
Way back when I had nothing
Reflecting on a period when the speaker had nothing and examining loyalty.
How Many Teardrops child does it take
Pondering the emotional toll represented by the number of tears shed.
Fore you can tell that you made a mistake
Questioning when one can realize a mistake by the number of tears shed.

Reiterating the theme of evaluating mistakes through the measure of tears.
Before you come back babe
Asking when the realization of a mistake leads to a return or reconciliation.
Some say girl you been doing alright
Acknowledging external perceptions of coping well while personally feeling heartbroken.
But I know you’re broken hearted
Recognizing the speaker's own emotional pain despite appearances.
You trade your life for pretend sometimes
Describing a willingness to trade reality for a façade at times.
Can’t stand the rain you have started
Expressing discomfort with the consequences initiated by someone else.

Its like holding the sun in a picture
Illustrating the difficulty of grasping onto something intangible or insincere.
Losing you gonna bring me down
Anticipating that losing the person will be the catalyst for connecting again.
That’s the only way I’m a get witcha
Indicating a willingness to reconnect but only through a significant event.
