Lyrics
Winter will fall away, parting til another rainy day
Winter symbolizes a difficult or challenging time that will pass, making way for another rainy day.
It’s as if there’s no escape from this
There seems to be no escape from a certain place or situation.
Place, another bed to eat
Another bed to eat may suggest a transient or unsettled lifestyle.
Whisper from between the sheets:
A whispered question from between the sheets about one's aspirations.
Ask me what you want to be
An invitation to ask about one's desired identity or future.
Have you seen my face?
A question about recognizing the speaker's face.
It bears a telephone
The speaker's face resembles a telephone, suggesting a desire for connection.
I’m begging through the dialtone
A plea for attention and communication through the telephone's dial tone.
Tell me where I need to go
An appeal for guidance on where to go in life.
Let’s climb inside these walls
Suggesting entering a metaphorical space or state of vulnerability.
Open up
An encouragement to open up emotionally.
Alright let’s
Expressing readiness to engage in introspection.
Sit there and, open mouthed, figure outloud
Encouraging open discussion to understand desires.
The wishes how they sparkle when you fail to see
Reflecting on missed opportunities and the beauty of unfulfilled wishes.
So stick your fingers in the essence, is it not enough?
Encouraging deeper engagement with life's essence despite uncertainties.
And ask it if it’s worth it now to fall in love!
Pondering the value of falling in love despite potential challenges.
Take everything you wanted to put in a home
Suggesting collecting and preserving everything important in life.
And cast in a shell of what is all your own
Creating a protective shell for one's identity and possessions.
Let’s climb inside these walls
Reiteration of entering a vulnerable state for introspection.
Open up
Repeating the encouragement to open up emotionally.
Stand tall your face forgives you
An assertion that forgiveness is possible, encouraging self-acceptance.
This road is not within you
Suggesting that the challenging path is not intrinsic to the individual.
We know what you’ve been hiding
Recognizing hidden aspects and challenges the individual faces.
I’ve been waging war
Admitting to engaging in a personal struggle or conflict.
I’ve been waging war upon your memory
Engaging in a metaphorical war against memories, possibly painful ones.
You knew this nature from the start
Acknowledging awareness of the inherent nature of the struggle.
I’ve been waging war upon your memory
Continuing the acknowledgment of battling against memories.
The nature to let it fall apart
Recognizing the nature of memories and the tendency to fall apart.
I’ve been waging war upon your memory
Reiterating the ongoing internal conflict with memories.
If peace is a lesson of the heart—
Raising a philosophical question about the purpose of waging war on memories.
Why have I been waging war upon your memory?
Questioning the contradiction of seeking peace while battling memories.
