Song With Legs
Ephemeral Symphony: A Melody's Evolution
Lyrics
This song grows legs
This song symbolically gains life or momentum.
And runs around crying random words
It expresses itself energetically, uttering seemingly arbitrary words.
It’s a noisy minstrel with a tambourine
Describes the song as a lively troubadour with a tambourine.
Who can’t stop shouting anymore
The song becomes unstoppable in its vocal expression.
She grows arms she ties her hair and make up
The song develops aspects of identity but struggles to settle on a specific form.
But she never finds the right form
Despite efforts, it fails to find a definitive form.
She’s a lady wearing heels dancing in a clumsy way
Portrays the song as a lady dancing awkwardly but enthusiastically in heels.
But she can’t stop moving anymore
The song becomes incessantly active in its movement.
There’s a song who weeps a tear
Introduces a tearful aspect to the song, affecting its written manifestation.
Wetting all the paper and making it unreadable
The song's emotions make the paper illegible with tears.
She is thrown away and she is written again
Despite being discarded, the song is rewritten but retains its essence.
But after all she's always the same
Emphasizes the enduring core identity of the song.
She’s always my song
Reiterates the personal connection to the song despite changes.
This song grows a heart
The song acquires a heart, and its rhythm becomes pronounced.
And its beating becomes a drum
The heartbeat evolves into a musical rhythm that intensifies.
Its rhythm increasing becoming music
It becomes a musical force that cannot be silenced.
And can’t stop anymore
However, it becomes mute when betrayed permanently.
But then she becomes mute
Despite being discarded, the song is rewritten but maintains its essence.
In the moment when someone betrays her forever
The song remains constant even after betrayal.
She is thrown away and she’s written again
Reiterates the enduring identity of the song after being rewritten.
But after all she’s always the same
Reaffirms the core identity of the song.
She’s always my song
Expresses a consistent personal connection to the song.
At the end she’s now blind
Describes the song as blind, unable to recognize its beauty.
And she can’t see how beautiful she is
Reflects on the loss of appreciation for the song's beauty.
The instrument that played her has broken
The instrument playing the song breaks, and its audience departs.
And the child who listened has gone away
The original listener of the song is no longer present.
But she’s always the same
Despite changes and challenges, the song maintains its fundamental identity.
But she’s always the same
-But she’s always the same
-But she’s always the same
-But she’s always the same
-But she’s always the same
-But she’s always the same
-There’s a song who weeps a tear
-Wetting all the paper and making it unreadable
-She is thrown away and she is written again
-But after all she's always the same
-There’s a song who weeps a tear
-Wetting all the paper and making it unreadable
-She is thrown away and she is written again
-But after all she's always the same
-She’s always my song
Reiterates the personal connection to the song despite changes.
