Unveiling Life's Unwritten Chapters: A Reflection on Saturday Looks Good to Me's 'Typing'
Lyrics
You spent such a long time typing
You dedicated a significant amount of time to typing.
That you forgot how to write letters
You've become so immersed in typing that traditional letter writing seems forgotten or neglected.
And your friends all say you're better off
Your friends believe you made the right decision to leave a situation.
Cause you got out when you did
Leaving a situation was beneficial for you.
But you can't help feeling restless
You still experience a sense of unease or dissatisfaction.
Like there's something you can't remember
You feel a vague sense of forgetfulness or missing something.
And you can't stop walking round at night
You find yourself wandering at night with a restless heart.
Like some broken hearted kid
You navigate the night with a sense of heartbreak or emotional pain.
All the ones who tried to tie you down
People who attempted to restrict you couldn't comprehend your perspective.
Couldn't even start to understand
Those who tried to understand you failed to do so.
Couldn't find the words to hold your hand
They couldn't find the right words to support you emotionally.
Couldn't comprehend the master plan
They couldn't grasp the overall plan or purpose.
All the books you started reading
You started engaging with literature.
All the boys you started seeing
You began relationships with boys.
Every half completed sentiment
Your expressions and thoughts remain incomplete.
That you always meant to say
You have unspoken sentiments that were never communicated.
Gets stuck inside a memory
Your unexpressed thoughts linger in your memories.
Like a miracle unfinished
Unfinished miracles are retained in your recollections.
And you only feel like going back
You feel inclined to return to a place with no permanent residence.
To where there's no place to stay
This place holds significance for you.
All the ones to tried to tie you down
People attempted to control or limit you.
To tell you lies
They deceived you with false information.
And keep you you on the ground
They tried to keep you grounded or restrained.
They all tried but never had a chance.
Despite their efforts, they never succeeded in influencing you.
