Elsewhere
Echoes of Discord: Finding Sanctuary Amidst Family Strife
Lyrics
I listen to you argue loudly
I perceive your loud arguments
Hardly hear my own thoughts, gladly
It's difficult for me to hear my own thoughts, but I welcome the distraction
You shout at me with words of anger
You express anger towards me
Filling the house
Your angry words fill the entire house
With stabbing clangour
The sound is harsh and painful
Making me wish
I desire to be in a different place
That I was elsewhere
Expressing a wish to escape the current situation
They're talking but I can't make out the words
Others are speaking, but I can't comprehend their words
The floorboards fall from underneath me
The ground beneath me feels unstable
I realize that none of what I heard
I realize that what I heard may not be significant
Matters the least
Importance diminishes when it comes to family
When you're family
Despite losing sanity, the bond with family persists
Even though I've lost my sanity
(Blank line, no specific content)
: I'll always feel
Emphasizing an enduring emotional state
Just the same
Feelings remain constant
No matter how bad
No matter how negative
No matter how great :
No matter how positive
I listen to you argue loudly
I perceive your loud arguments (repeated)
Hardly hear my own thoughts, gladly
It's difficult for me to hear my own thoughts, but I welcome the distraction (repeated)
You shout at me with words of anger
You express anger towards me (repeated)
Filling the house
Your angry words fill the entire house (repeated)
With stabbing clangour
The sound is harsh and painful (repeated)
Making me wish
I desire to be in a different place (repeated)
That I was elsewhere
Expressing a wish to escape the current situation (repeated)
