Separated
Echoes of Lost Love: Single Wound's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Look for my face in the clouds
Searching for a familiar presence or connection in moments of isolation or distress.
When you're separated from everything that makes you happy
Feeling distant from sources of joy and contentment.
And the fire of a thousand suns
An intense, overwhelming feeling likened to immense heat and power.
Floating through the sky like a cursed swarm
A portrayal of a threatening, ominous force moving ominously.
Raining down on everything you've ever loved
Destruction or negativity affecting cherished things or relationships.
I don't wanna let you go
Reluctance to part ways or end a relationship.
Don't wanna go through all the things we talked about
Avoiding the pain of facing discussed consequences or issues.
How could we ever let it come to this?
Expressing disbelief or regret at the current situation.
Just let me go please let me out
Pleading to be released from a situation or relationship.
So far from here just wanna shout
Desire to express emotions intensely despite the distance.
And I'll never have the guts
Lack of courage to take certain actions.
But I don't think I can fall asleep here every night
Difficulty sleeping due to unresolved issues or worries.
Wishing everything will be alright
Hoping for eventual resolution or improvement.
I've tied this noose too many times
Metaphor for repeated thoughts of self-harm or self-destructive behavior.
Just in case I lose sleep tonight
Preparing for potential sleepless nights due to distress.
I've asked myself too many times
Repetitive questioning regarding the sensation of being alive.
How does it feel to feel alive
Wondering about the experience of genuine vitality.
Have you ever watched the sky turn grey?
Observing a change or deterioration in surroundings.
At night when we laid in each other's arms
Recalling intimate moments shared in the past.
I felt it then, I feel it now
Continued emotional connection to past experiences.
I gave into your smile you gave into my charm
Describing mutual attraction and interaction.
And when the sun rose again, would you still be in bed?
Concern over the longevity of affection or commitment.
Or leave me cold and all alone?
Fear of abandonment or rejection.
Cold and all alone
Feeling isolated and unsupported.
I've been letting myself go
Letting oneself deteriorate due to accustomed behavior.
Cause it's all I've ever known
Acceptance of a detrimental pattern as the norm.
"Oh, everything is ok...yeah everything is alright"
Self-assuring despite evident loneliness.
It's what I tell myself on these lonely nights
Self-deception to cope with solitude.
It's very clear, that you don't care
Realization of indifference from someone significant.
So I'll just collapse
Surrendering to emotional collapse or breakdown.
But the things that I've been searching for
Discovering that aspirations were unreal or unattainable.
Were just a fantasy and nothing more
Realization that desired things were only illusions.
