Writing on the Wall
Unraveling Bonds: A Heartfelt Reflection
Lyrics
There was a time when you were proud
Reflecting on a time when the listener was proud.
You looked up to me with big eyes
Recalling a time when the listener admired the speaker.
And I could do no wrong
Expressing a sense of being faultless in the past.
There's something inside
Hinting at an internal struggle causing a rift.
That's clearly tearing both of us apart
Acknowledging a conflict affecting both parties.
Oh, there's something inside
Reiterating the presence of an internal issue.
I wonder where you are, tonight
Expressing curiosity about the listener's current whereabouts.
And what you did with your day
Wondering about the listener's activities during the day.
Can't find the words to say
Unable to find words to communicate.
Did you feel the sun?
Asking if the listener experienced positive emotions.
Did you feel the warmness of my heart
Reference to a warm and affectionate feeling.
Oh, did you feel at all?
Questioning if the listener felt anything.
They say if you love someone you gotta let them go
Quoting a common advice about love and letting go.
And if they return to you that's surely how you'll know
Suggesting a way to determine true love.
Oh, I can read the writing on the wall
Reading signs or signals indicating a situation.
Oh, but I can't let go
Expressing difficulty in releasing the past.
They say if you love someone you gotta let them go
Repeating the advice about letting go in love.
And if they return to you that's surely how you'll know
Emphasizing the return as a sign of genuine love.
Oh, I can read the writing on the wall
Observing signs indicating a return.
Oh, but I can't let go
Reiterating the struggle to move on.
I'm hopelessly aware
Acknowledging self-awareness of shared traits.
Of the good and the bad traits we share
Recognizing both positive and negative aspects.
It's like looking at myself
Comparing the listener to oneself.
And I know that at times
Acknowledging past mistakes.
I could've handled things differently
Admitting possible alternative actions.
Oh, but know my intentions were well
Asserting good intentions despite past actions.
They say if you love someone, you gotta let them go
Repeating the advice on love and letting go.
And if they return to you that's surely how you'll know
Linking return as a confirmation of true love.
Oh, I can read the writing on the wall
Interpreting signs or signals about the situation.
Oh, but I can't let go
Expressing the struggle to release the past.
Oh, I can't let go
Repeating the inability to let go, emphasizing the sentiment.
Oh, I can't let go
-Oh, I can't let go
-Oh, I can't let go
