You Never Told Me, So I Just Guessed
Echoes of Solitude: Deciphering the Unspoken Depths
Lyrics
We're all ghosts inside our homes wandering between the walls
We exist as emotional apparitions within our dwellings, moving aimlessly amid the confines of our self-constructed barriers.
That we've built up around ourselves
These walls symbolize the emotional defenses we've erected around ourselves.
Never alone, never quite here
We are never truly isolated, yet we remain disconnected from our surroundings.
I heard you say the end is near if you wanted it to be
I overheard you mentioning that the conclusion is imminent, contingent on your desire for it.
And if there's ever been a time for all them to change their minds
This is a critical moment for others to reconsider their perspectives.
it seems that now is as good any
Now appears to be an opportune time for change, without a specific condition.
Could you ask for more than a means to end?
Is there a greater request than having a method to conclude matters?
Or the comforting words of a parting friend who carries on and on without this hope?
Or the consoling words of a departing friend who continues incessantly without this sense of hope?
They've been wrong before
Historically, they have been incorrect.
Carving out the wounds we have that never seem to heal
We're emphasizing the persistent emotional injuries that refuse to mend.
If they told you it could go away but it's the last thing that you'll feel
If they assured you that the pain could disappear but it remains the last sensation you experience.
Would you want it?
Would you desire its cessation?
I'm sure you don't
It's probable that you wouldn't.
We're all ghosts inside our homes
We, collectively, continue as emotional specters within our residences.
Wandering between the walls that we've built up around ourselves
Traversing the spaces defined by the emotional barriers we've established.
Never alone, never quite here
Despite our constant presence, we remain emotionally distant.
I heard you say "the end is near… if you wanted it to be"
Reiterating the idea that the end is imminent, depending on one's volition.
They've been wrong before
Highlighting the historical inaccuracy of their predictions.
Would you want them to be?
Would you prefer them to be mistaken again?
Carving out the wounds we have that never seem to heal
Reiterating the emphasis on enduring emotional wounds that defy healing.
If they told you it could go away but it's the last thing that you'll feel
If they assured you of relief, but it remains the concluding sensation, would you seek it?
Would you want it?
Do you truly desire its cessation?
I'm sure you don't
It's highly likely that you wouldn't.
