Yearning for Home: Rosie Carney's Emotional Journey in 'Dad'
Lyrics
When I close my eyes
Expression of introspection or reflection.
There's no compromise
Refusal to compromise, perhaps on personal values or beliefs.
It's made up of me
Self-awareness and acknowledgment of one's identity.
Everything I see
Perception and interpretation of the surrounding world.
When it's out of reach
Frustration when desires or goals are unattainable.
Swimming far too deep
Delving into complex or challenging situations.
Feeling like the brink
Sensation of being on the edge or threshold.
Please don't let me sink
Plea for support or reassurance to avoid emotional decline.
I'm moving
Movement, possibly in the emotional or psychological realm.
In these moments, I'm losing
Vulnerability and potential loss in certain moments.
And it's proving
Evidence or realization of the situation.
That I shouldn't be choosing
Recognition of the need for a different choice.
Choosing you
Acknowledgment of a problematic choice, possibly related to a person.
Turn off the radio
Desire to avoid distressing information.
I don't wanna know
Rejection of knowledge about negative occurrences.
Who's in hell today
Disinterest in the current state of the world.
Don't wanna feel this way
Emotional avoidance or reluctance to experience certain feelings.
Wish that I was small
Longing for simplicity and innocence.
Where the grass felt tall
Seeking comfort in a familiar and safer place.
Hiding on my own
Isolation and withdrawal to cope with challenges.
Dad, come take me home
Yearning for paternal support or guidance.
I'm moving
Continuation of emotional or psychological movement.
In these moments, I'm losing
Reiteration of vulnerability in certain moments.
And it's proving
Confirmation or evidence of the challenging situation.
That I shouldn't be choosing
Acknowledgment of the need for a different choice.
Choosing you
Reiteration of recognizing a problematic choice.
These moments won't wait for me (all my life)
Time passing without waiting for personal development.
And I'm tired of trying to be (in your eyes)
Fatigue from attempting to meet external expectations.
I'm moving
Continuation of emotional or psychological movement.
In these moments, I'm losing
Reiteration of vulnerability in certain moments.
And it's proving
Confirmation or evidence of the challenging situation.
That I shouldn't be choosing
Acknowledgment of the need for a different choice.
Choosing you
Reiteration of recognizing a problematic choice.
