Coming Down On Me
Echoes of Time: Embracing Change and Uncharted Paths in Sam Burton's 'Coming Down On Me'
Lyrics
Are you out? The sorrows time
Expressing inquiry about the state of someone, possibly emotionally troubled, during a period of sorrow.
Are you out in love?
Questioning whether the person is experiencing love or seeking it outside.
Are you out to change your mind?
Asking if the person is contemplating a change of perspective or decision.
And it takes so long
Reflecting on the prolonged nature of a difficult situation or emotional struggle.
But you could buy me a little time
Suggesting a desire for additional time, possibly through support or understanding.
And I'd run to your mirror's light
Expressing a willingness to run towards the brightness and clarity found in one's reflection.
And borrow another sight
Desiring to borrow a different perspective or insight from another person.
Coming down on me
Describing an overwhelming feeling of pressure or responsibility descending upon the speaker.
It's alright to say I don't
Acknowledging that it's acceptable to admit uncertainty or lack of understanding.
It's alright to stall
Affirming that it's acceptable to pause or delay in the face of challenges.
It's alright, I've never known how to fall
Expressing acceptance of personal limitations, especially in the context of falling or failing.
And I want to throw you another line
Expressing a desire to offer support or assistance to someone by extending a figurative lifeline.
I want to shock you into life
Expressing a desire to jolt someone into a more vibrant or awakened state of being.
But I have no hold of the time
Acknowledging a lack of control over the passing of time and its impact on the speaker.
That's coming down on me
Reiterating the overwhelming feeling of external pressure or responsibility.
I have no promises owed
Stating a lack of commitments or assurances owed to others.
And I've got nowhere to go
Expressing a sense of being directionless or having no specific destination.
That memory wouldn't be a load
Asserting that past experiences or memories do not burden the speaker.
Coming down on me
Reiterating the overwhelming feeling of external pressure or responsibility.
Coming down on me
Repetition emphasizing the continued descent of pressure or responsibility.
Coming down on me
