Alternate Endings
Alternate Endings Unveiled: Love's Complicated Dance
Lyrics
I went to a theater many miles away
I visited a distant theater
To see a movie that played only one day
To watch a movie with a one-day display
Then a character moved me in the simplest way
A character profoundly moved me
When she turned to her lover just to say
She turned to her lover and said
Hello, It's me, and you and I were meant to be
Greeting, it's me; we are meant to be
And now, It's true, every alternate ending somehow ends with you
Every alternate ending concludes with you
Can you see them through the screen? My dear
Asking if the observer can see through the screen
I do not know what you mean, be clear
Request for clarification, expressing uncertainty
You are just dumb as you seem, I fear
Accusing someone of being as foolish as they appear
There's been people watching me for years
Feeling watched by people over an extended period
Can you see them through the screen? My dear
Repetition of questioning the ability to see through the screen
I do not know what you mean, be clear
Reiterating the request for clarity
You are just dumb as you seem
Reinforcing the accusation of foolishness
Well the look that he gives, it is frozen in time
Describing a frozen-in-time expression
He says that it might be true for your life but it's not for mine
Rejecting a statement as applicable to one life, not theirs
He's angry now and says this could have been fine
Expressing anger and regret over a missed opportunity
But the way that you are talking has me over the line
Disapproval of the way someone is talking
And now, they part
Characters parting ways
She's cold but she's smart
She is cold but intelligent
Because she knows
Awareness of a split soul with one destination
A soul split in two hearts has one place to go
Highlighting a singular path for a divided heart
Did you see them through the screen? My dear
Repeating the question about seeing through the screen
I wish I knew what you mean, be clear
Expressing a wish for understanding
Am I just dumb as I seem, I fear
Questioning one's own intelligence and expressing fear
There's been people watching me for years
Continued feeling of being observed for years
Did you see them through the screen? My dear
Reiteration of the question about seeing through the screen
I wish I knew what you mean, be clear
Repeating the desire for clarity
Am I just dumb as I seem
Continued self-doubt and fear of appearing foolish
