Lyrics
We were going through a time
We were experiencing a challenging period.
But we were standing in a crowd
Despite the difficulties, we were surrounded by others.
No one could see
No one could perceive or understand our struggles.
Used the wrong things just to mask it
We used inappropriate methods to conceal our problems.
In the morning it was quite obviously
In the morning, the issues were still evident.
Still there
The challenges persisted.
So I searched all of my heart
I examined my feelings thoroughly.
To see if there was anyhting worth saying
Searching for anything meaningful to express.
But then my pockets turned up empty
My efforts yielded no significant results.
Brain went numb, nothing
Feeling mentally numb, devoid of thoughts.
We were driving your car
We were driving in your car.
Music so loud it was impossible to see
The loud music obstructed visibility.
And then I looked a little closer
A closer look revealed your face bleeding.
And noticed that your face started to bleed
A realization of your suffering.
And I thought to myself
Contemplating my lack of profundity.
I am not profound
Acknowledging a lack of deep insight.
I have some angst laying around
Admitting to unresolved inner turmoil.
And some people I love
Having affection for certain individuals.
Let's start this countdown from ten
Suggesting a countdown from ten.
Every number closer to one
Each number closer to one brings calmness.
Brings your body closer to calm
The countdown is a coping mechanism.
This isn't working for me
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current situation.
How is it working for you
Asking about the effectiveness from the other person's perspective.
We were going through a time
Reiteration of going through a challenging time.
But we were standing in a crowd no one could see
Emphasizing the hidden nature of their struggles in a crowd.
We were driving in your car
Revisiting the experience of driving with loud music.
Music so loud it was impossible to see
Recalling the obstructive nature of the loud music.
And I'm thinking to myself
Reflecting on observing someone's suffering.
I see you suffer
Expressing a desire to offer support to the suffering individual.
I'll grab you by the hand
Reaffirming a lack of profound insight.
I am not profound
Reiterating personal inner turmoil.
I have some angst laying around
Acknowledging unresolved angst.
And some people I love
Affirming affection for specific individuals.
