Girl Across The Room
Yearning Hearts: Unveiling the Silent Desires Across the Room
Lyrics
She is there, holding his hand
Observing a woman holding hands with someone
Forcing a smile and faking a laugh
She's pretending to be happy, masking her true feelings
Across the room stands the girl with the tattoos
A different woman with tattoos is seen at a distance
Holding her drink and looking around
The woman with tattoos is holding a drink and surveying the area
But why does she need to hide?
Questioning why the woman with tattoos feels the need to conceal something
Does she need to lie?
Wondering if she's compelled to be dishonest
And she cannot cry
She's unable to express her emotions openly
She wants the girl standing across the room
Expressing a desire for the woman across the room
She's got the man that her parents think is cool
She's with a man approved by her parents
The greatest man that she will ever meet
Her partner is considered the best she'll ever find
So why does she always feel so incomplete?
Despite this, she feels an inner sense of emptiness
She knows why, cause he's a guy
Her dissatisfaction stems from societal gender roles
And she's a girl, but it cannot be
It's not acceptable due to gender norms
They say marry a good man
Advises marrying a suitable man for happiness
Start a family and you'll be happy
Emphasizes starting a family for fulfillment
So she tries, tries to make them happy
She strives to please others, aiming for their contentment
Tries to make them proud
Efforts to make her parents proud
But she wants the girl
Reiterating the longing for the woman across the room
She wants the girl standing across the room
Desire remains for the woman despite her partner
She's got the guy that her parents think is cool
She's partnered with a man acceptable to her parents
The greatest man that she will ever meet
Reiterating her current partner's value
So why does she always feel so incomplete
Despite this, she feels a sense of incompleteness
She wants the girl standing across the room
Repeated longing for the woman across the room
She's got the guy that her parents think is cool
Repetition of being with an approved partner
The greatest man that she will ever meet
Reiterating the partner's perceived greatness
So why does she always feel so incomplete
Continued sense of inner emptiness despite her partner
