Photophobia
Embracing Imperfection: Shepherd's Tone's Photophobia
Lyrics
When light shines on my face
Feeling discomfort when exposed to light on the face.
I feel excluded
Sense of being left out or isolated.
The last thing that I need to embrace
Reluctance or resistance towards accepting something.
I think I knew it
Recognition of prior awareness or understanding.
It's not like every single day
Not every day is flawless or ideal.
Can be so perfect
Days cannot always be perfect.
I think I see it
Perception of artificial light being consistently cleaner.
The artificial light is always the cleanest
Artificial light is perceived as consistently pure or sanitized.
I just can't see it
Difficulty in perceiving something.
And I always try to reach it
Continuous attempts to achieve or obtain something.
The feelings I can't reach them
Inability to connect with certain emotions or sensations.
I see the thing that keeps me
Recognition of something that holds the person back.
I think I need to get away now
Feeling the need to escape or leave immediately.
It's not a Holland holiday now
Not experiencing a relaxing or enjoyable time.
Things repeat again
Patterns repeating in life.
I need sleep again
Desiring rest or sleep repeatedly.
I don't think that I can stop it
Feeling unable to halt or cease something.
Didn't need it then
Initially not needing something, but now it's essential.
But it's never been
Something not growing or evolving over time.
Something that grows as I get
The lack of progression in a certain aspect of life.
Pack the last thing I ever need
Packing something essential or final.
The light won't trail me to my sleep
Light not disturbing one's sleep or rest.
I'd rather bleed out, than just to bleed
Preferably facing extreme consequences than enduring a gradual pain.
My friends don't even see me
Feeling unseen or unnoticed by friends.
Can you look at me
Seeking acknowledgment or recognition from someone.
I feel like such a creep
Feeling discomfort or unease about oneself.
I hold things but know we
Grasping or holding onto things but not comprehending them fully.
Can sit here but I never think
Sitting idle but unable to engage in meaningful thoughts.
I think I need to get away now
Strong urge to escape or leave immediately (repeated).
It's not a Holland holiday now
Emphasizing the absence of a relaxing or enjoyable time (repeated).
I think I'll die here
Feeling trapped or stuck in a situation that might lead to an undesirable outcome.
My work is so bare
One's work or efforts feeling inadequate or lacking.
The light may take me
Suggesting the light might cause harm or unwanted effects.
Imperfect like the thing I breathe
Imperfections similar to the air being breathed in consistently.
Forever
Perception of a perpetual situation or state.
