Jane
Jane's Emotional Journey: A Plea for Strength and Support
Lyrics
I start here, I don't know what to say
I am starting, unsure of what to express
Jane doesn't feel good, she is going insane
Jane is experiencing emotional distress, possibly losing her sanity
She tried again to change her mind
Jane attempted to change her perspective or thoughts
But she couldn’t have a guiding light
She couldn't find a clear direction or source of guidance
The only safe place was her bed
Her bed is the only place where she feels safe
While her friends in her head
Her internal thoughts or emotions are like friends talking in her head
Said “In the past we were stronger,
Internal voices reminisce about being stronger in the past and express uncertainty about enduring current challenges
Now we don’t know if we can take it any longer”
-Jane, oh Jane
Repetition of Jane's name, emphasizing a call or concern for her
What’s going on with you?
Expressing confusion or concern about Jane's state
Jane, oh Jane
Reiterating concern for Jane and expressing personal struggles
You know, I’m broken too
-One, two, three, four
Counting and encouraging Jane to move beyond a certain point, possibly metaphorical, and urging her to say goodbye
Go past the fifth floor
-Breathe the last fresh air of the night
-And don’t forget to say goodbye
-Words are disappearing from my mouth
Struggling to articulate thoughts, feeling a heaviness in the heart
I wish I could say, but they can’t go out
-I can feel you heart, it’s heavy
Expressing empathy and encouraging Jane to remain calm and steady
I ask you to try to stay steady
-Jane, girl, I feel you go away
Noticing Jane withdrawing, asking her to stay, and offering support to overcome challenges
Oh, I am asking you to stay
-Your burden is putting you down
-Throw it away and let’s build our town
-Jane, oh Jane
Repetition of concern for Jane's well-being and acknowledgment of personal brokenness
What’s going on with you?
-Jane, oh Jane
-You know, I’m broken too
-Jane, oh Jane
Repeating the plea to understand Jane's situation and offering assistance
What’s going on with you?
-Jane, oh Jane
-I am begging, let me help you
-One, two, three, four
Counting and urging Jane not to go to a specific place, pledging to stay by her side
Don’t go to the fifth floor
-Breathe the fresh air of the night
-I will stay here, by your side
