Alicia, Who Sees Mice
Turbulent Peace: Reflections in T-Shirt and Jeans
Lyrics
The queen of daybreak vibes
The embodiment of positive morning energy
Permanent bedtime eyes
Eyes that suggest a perpetual state of readiness for sleep
From double shifts and rolling pins
Reference to hard work and domestic life
Thrift shop perfect fits
Fashion items found at thrift shops that perfectly suit you
Run hands down your side
Caressing your body with hands
Trace your designs
Tracing and appreciating the unique aspects of your personality
Leave some of mine
Leaving a part of oneself in the relationship
Drifting through the veins I drew
Metaphor for the emotional connection flowing through the veins
Drifting through my ink to you
Expressing emotions through writing
Do you
Repetition of questioning if the other person still thinks about the speaker
Do you
-Do you still think of me
-Do you
-Do you
-Do you still think of me
-T-shirt and jeans
Describing attire and dreams with symbolic meanings
Modern art hangs
-In your rolling pin dreams
-T-shirt and jeans
-Kneeling to pray
-You’re the saint of turbulent peace
-Think of me
Referencing a religious symbol and observation
A little brass cross
-Eyes me above the washer
Noting the slow process of healing and improvement
By photos of your mother and
-Some things take time to get better
-Run hands down your side
Repetition of physical and emotional connection
Trace your designs
-Leave some of mine
-Drifting through the veins I drew
Continuation of the metaphorical ink representing emotions
Drifting through my ink to you
-Do you
Reiteration of questioning if there's still thought about the speaker
Do you
-Do you still think of me
-Do you
-Do you
-Do you still think of me
-T-shirt and jeans
Continuation of symbolic imagery related to attire and dreams
Modern art hangs
-In your rolling pin dreams
-T-shirt and jeans
-Kneeling to pray
-You’re the saint of turbulent peace
-Think of me
Encouraging the other person to think about the speaker
Do you
Repetition and emphasis on the persistent desire to be remembered
Do you
-Do you still
-Do you
-Do you
-Do you still
-You’re the saint of everything
-Modern art in all your dreams
-T-shirt and jeans
-Modern art hangs
-In your rolling pin dreams
-T-shirt and jeans
-Kneeling to pray
-You’re the saint of turbulent peace
-Think of me
-Do you think of me
