Candy Shop
Lost in a Candy Shop of Isolation: Ruby Chaffer's Soulful Reflection
Lyrics
I open the door to the candy shop
I enter a place resembling a candy shop.
I twist the cap off my bottle of 7up
I open a bottle of 7up.
I don't know when my mind went to rot
I'm uncertain when my mental state started deteriorating.
I try to ignore it, but I can't treat something like it's not
Despite trying to disregard it, I cannot dismiss a problem as if it doesn't exist.
Oh
Expressing a feeling, possibly a realization.
When I'm not home
When not at home, I experience a sense of detachment.
I feel like a ghost
Feeling like a specter or someone invisible.
I'm so alone
Experiencing intense loneliness.
I walk down the steps of the museum
Describing a visit to a museum.
I read the plaques by the statues in the room
Reading information about statues in the museum.
The words all turn to a misty haze
Words becoming unclear or difficult to understand.
I don't know what's happening but i've been like this for days
Feeling disoriented and unsure for an extended period.
Oh
Expressing a reaction to snowfall.
When it snows
Describing the intense cold during snow.
It's so cold
Reiterating a sense of solitude.
I'm so alone
Oh
Expressing uncertainty or confusion.
I don't know
Uncertain about the surroundings.
Everywhere I go
Feeling alone everywhere.
I'm so alone
I hear my friends talking
Hearing conversations among friends.
I see the people walking
Observing people moving around.
I sit and think about how my mind got so rotten
Reflecting on how the mind has deteriorated.
I smell the pent up energy
Noticing a buildup of pent-up energy.
Taste the joy as it fades into my memory
Tasting the fading joy in memories.
I feel tight inside and I want to hide
Feeling emotionally constricted and wanting to hide.
Everybody's staring at me like I just cried
Experiencing the gaze of others, possibly due to emotional vulnerability.
