Lyrics
Count for me the cost
Counting the consequences or sacrifices
The number of tomorrows lost
Reflecting on the number of lost opportunities in the future
Taken from the shore
Referring to something taken away from a stable position
Just waiting for the undertow
Anticipating a powerful and inevitable force (symbolized by undertow)
Stolen nice and slow
Describing a gradual, deliberate theft
First the body, then the blame
Sequentially mentioning the physical impact, blame, and identity loss
And then the name
Emphasizing the loss of personal identity
Sinking sand between my toes
Feeling the gradual, sinking effect of a challenging situation
I will not wait until I'm pulled below, oh
Expressing unwillingness to wait for impending challenges
No and nobody can see me
Feeling invisible or unnoticed
For who I will be
Questioning the perception of one's future self
So, please remind me it's not too late
Pleading for a reminder that it's not too late to change
So, please remind me unbind me
Pleading to be freed from constraints or obligations
It's not too late so, please remind me
Reiterating the plea that it's not too late for a positive change
Come find me if it's not too late
Inviting someone to find the speaker if change is still possible
Please remind me unbind me
Repeating the plea to be unbound or liberated
It's not too late so, please remind me
Reiterating the belief that it's not too late for change
Come find me if it's not too late
Inviting someone to find the speaker if change is still possible
So, please remind me if it's not too late
Reiterating the plea for a reminder if positive change is still feasible
