Call It What It Is
Navigating Loneliness: Unveiling the Depths of 'Call It What It Is'
Lyrics
The earth is filled with busy feet
The world is bustling with people moving around.
Busy souls on busy streets
Busy individuals on the active streets.
I feel alone, I feel alone
The singer experiences a sense of isolation and loneliness.
I’m half asleep and half awake
The singer feels partially conscious and partially asleep.
A slave to every breaking day
They feel compelled or controlled by each new day.
I feel alone, I feel alone
Continued feelings of isolation and loneliness.
I don’t think time will make this right
The singer doubts that time will resolve their situation.
Let’s just call it what it is
Suggesting to label the situation for what it truly is.
Come on, call it what it is
Encouraging direct acknowledgment of the reality.
All I wanted was to feel your touch
The singer desires physical contact to validate reality.
To let me know that you were real
Wanting reassurance of the other's existence through touch.
But come on, come on, that will never be
Realizing that this desire may remain unfulfilled.
The space between us is too far to cross
There's an emotional distance too vast to bridge.
So let’s be honest with ourselves
Advocating for honesty regarding their situation.
So come on, come on, call it what it is
Encouraging naming the situation truthfully.
The ones I pass are so confused
Others encountered seem lost and unaware.
My skin is gone, they walk right through
Feeling invisible or unnoticed as people pass by.
I feel alone, I feel alone
Continued feelings of isolation and loneliness.
Everything we used to try
Recalling past efforts and relationships.
And everyone I used to find
The singer used to meet various people.
I feel alone, I feel alone
Continued feelings of isolation and loneliness.
Can you hear me?
Seeking acknowledgement and connection.
Do you hear this?
Wondering if the other person hears or understands.
Do you know what’s going on here?
Questioning if the other person comprehends the situation.
All I wanted was the rain to fall on us
Desiring a shared intimate moment in the rain.
While I held you in my arms
A wish to hold the other person close during rainfall.
So come on, come on, just let it me
Asking for permission to experience this moment.
But the space between us is too far to cross
Highlighting the emotional distance that's insurmountable.
So let’s be honest with ourselves
Advocating for honesty about the situation.
So come on, come on, just call it what it is
Encouraging direct acknowledgment of the reality.
