What I See
Unveiling Hidden Emotions: What I See by Serial Joe
Lyrics
She walks around aimlessly in the night
Depicts a woman wandering aimlessly during the night
Desperately searching - for what she thinks is right
Expresses her desperate search for what she believes is right
Promises made... but always broken
Highlights the pattern of broken promises in her life
Words as thoughts but never spoken
Suggests thoughts or emotions left unexpressed in spoken words
Life and times that could have been
Reflects on missed opportunities in her life
And stories left untold
Indicates there are untold stories in her past
I can hear you cry
Expresses the ability to hear her cries, possibly in emotional pain
I can feel you sigh
Senses her sighs, indicating emotional distress
Touched my soul today
Refers to a profound impact on the speaker's soul
Now kiss the pain goodbye
Encourages letting go of pain through a symbolic kiss
Sidesteps feelings that come her way
Describes her avoidance of emotional experiences
Thinking she can make it through another day
Believes she can endure another day despite challenges
The fear of falling makes her shiver
Addresses her fear of falling and its physical manifestation
Afraid to accept the feeling it gives her
Expresses reluctance to acknowledge certain emotions
If only she could see what I see
Wishes she could perceive herself as the speaker does
The fire that burns inside
Recognizes a hidden passion or intensity within her
I can hear you cry
Reiterates the ability to hear her cries for emotional support
I can feel you sigh
Reiterates sensing her sighs, emphasizing empathy
You touched my soul today
Confirms a profound impact on the speaker's soul
Now kiss the pain goodbye
Encourages letting go of pain through a symbolic kiss
BRIDGE
Introduces a bridge section, possibly a musical interlude
I can hear you cry
Reiterates the ability to hear her cries for emotional support
I can feel you sigh
Reiterates sensing her sighs, emphasizing continued empathy
You touched my soul today
Confirms a continued profound impact on the speaker's soul
Now kiss the pain goodbye
Encourages letting go of pain through a symbolic kiss, again
I can hear you cry
Reiterates the ability to hear her cries for emotional support
I can feel you sigh
Reiterates sensing her sighs, maintaining empathy
You touched my soul today
Confirms a continued profound impact on the speaker's soul
Now kiss the pain goodbye
Encourages letting go of pain through a symbolic kiss, once more
Now kiss the pain goodbye
Repeats the encouragement to kiss the pain goodbye
Now kiss the pain goodbye
-Now kiss the pain goodbye
Repeats the encouragement to kiss the pain goodbye, concluding the song
