Comfortably Lonely
Embracing Solitude: The Depths of Comfortably Lonely by September Barker
Lyrics
Comfortably lonely, all of the time
Feeling at ease with solitude consistently
Stretching my feelings into a rhyme
Expressing emotions through poetry or song
Swim to the bottom, what will you find?
Metaphorically diving deep within oneself
Probably nothing, that's worth your time
Suggesting there might not be significant discoveries in self-reflection
Picture yourself lying in the sea
Imagining oneself in a vast expanse, contemplating
Treading the water floating comfortably
Comfortably navigating life's challenges
Always beside you, people in a boat
Supportive individuals around, offering assistance
Trying to help you but you just want to float
Resisting help, preferring independence
Sometimes you float
Experiencing times of emotional detachment
Sometimes you drown
Alternating between emotional resilience and vulnerability
If I swim to the bottom will I go up or down?
Questioning the outcomes of introspection
How does love feel?
Curiosity about the sensations of love
I wouldn't know
Expressing unfamiliarity with the experience of love
I've become really good at being alone
Adapted to and skilled in being alone
Comfortably lonely, all of the time
Consistently finding comfort in solitude
Stretching my feelings into a rhyme
Reiterating the expression of emotions through art
Swim to the bottom, what will you find?
Repeating the metaphor of introspection, anticipating minimal revelation
Probably nothing, in truth I'm just tired
Admitting fatigue or weariness with the search for meaning
