Reconstruction
Reconstructing Memories: Small Black's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Just put it back together wherever you remember
Encouragement to piece things together based on memory
We could try all day.
Suggesting spending effort and time on reconstruction
You just put it back together wherever you remember
Reiterating the idea of rebuilding based on memory
Reconstruct the day.
Recreating or reconstructing a past day
Dont got ... an idea of how it was
Not having a clear understanding or memory of how things were
Dont got ...of the smoking glass of where we were.
Uncertain or lacking a memory of a particular moment ("smoking glass" metaphor)
Reconstruct the day
Emphasizing the need to reconstruct the specific day
Reconstruct the day
Repeating the urgency to reconstruct the day
Oh, oh, oh!
Expressing excitement or emphasis
Everybody who run away
Reference to people who have left or escaped
The rumors pulling in
Speculation or gossip gaining attention
For a night I...
Reflecting on a night, possibly with ambiguity or uncertainty
Ask my lip to taste yours
Recalling a moment of intimacy or connection
It was true, but I knew
Acknowledging truth but also personal awareness
Uh, yesterday was mine to do what I want to
Claiming agency over one's own time in the past
Reconstruct the day
Continued emphasis on reconstructing the day
Reconstruct the day
Repetition of the urgency to reconstruct the day
... want to help me
Request or invitation for assistance in reconstruction
You just put back together whatever you remember
Repetition stressing the act of reconstructing based on memory
You just put it back together whatever you remember
Emphasizing the importance of rebuilding based on memory
Reconstruct the day
Emphasis on reconstructing a specific day
Reconstruct the day
Repeating the urgency to reconstruct the day
How you want it!
Expressing a desire for choice in the reconstruction process
How you want it to be!
Stating the importance of having things as desired
Reconstruct a day
Reiterating the need to reconstruct a day from memory
Reconstruct a day
Continued emphasis on reconstructing a day
How you want it to be!
Stressing the importance of having things as desired
How you want it!
Expressing a desire for choice in the reconstruction process
