Lyrics
When I'm by myself
Expressing solitude and introspection
Here alone
Emphasizing the state of being alone
Crystal clear
Describing clarity or transparency
Fresh water falls
Depicting the purity of falling water
Hush and dive
Calling for silence and immersion
Got a little cradle for my brain
Referring to a mental refuge or safe place
A magic pill to kill the pain
Mentioning a metaphorical solution to emotional pain
Keep things nice and slow
Advocating for a slow and deliberate pace in life
My shoulders sag can't stand up straight
Expressing physical and emotional burden
I need a crutch to bear my weight
Describing the need for external support
I need some time to heal
Expressing the need for time to recover
Buried deep down
Referring to buried emotions or experiences
Cradle
Repetition of the title, possibly symbolizing comfort
All the sour seeds I've sewn
Reflecting on negative consequences of past actions
Now I weep
Expressing sorrow or regret
Now I see
Realization and understanding of consequences
How they've grown
Metaphorically comparing negative outcomes to growth
As gardens grow
Describing the organized development of negative consequences
In long straight rows
Continuing the metaphor of growth in a systematic way
As high as my head
Depicting the height or impact of the consequences
Thick roots below
Highlighting the depth or roots of the issues
Every time it rains
Associating rain with persistent problems
It leaves a stain
Suggesting lasting impact or marks from difficulties
So green so naive.
Describing the aftermath with innocence or unawareness
