Unraveling Shadows: A Tale of Love and Loss in Straight Waves' 'Anymore'
Lyrics
You loved gazing skywards
You enjoyed looking upward towards the sky.
But it was never dark enough
The darkness was never sufficient for you.
You made me promises you knew you couldn't keep
You made promises despite knowing they were impossible to fulfill.
I was always about to fall
I was in a perpetual state of almost falling.
And the edge was on your lips
The risky situation was always present in your words.
She made me feel like I'm a creep
Someone made me feel uncomfortable or socially awkward.
What a way to live your life
Reflecting on the lifestyle, questioning its validity.
How the fuck aren't you tired
Expressing disbelief at the endurance of the other person.
I only wanted a hug
All I wanted was a simple embrace.
I think you were that drug
You seemed to be the addictive influence in my life.
That kills you slow
A metaphorical drug that slowly causes harm.
But now you're gone
Now you're no longer a part of my life.
She always asked me
A third person inquired about my fears.
What I was afraid of
She consistently asked about my anxieties.
And I always answered her
I always replied that I feared losing my way.
"I'm scared of getting lost"
The fear of becoming lost was a prevalent concern.
'Cause the edge was on her lips
Similar to before, the risk was present in her words.
She made me feel like I'm a creep
Feeling socially uncomfortable, as before.
What a way to live your life
Reflecting on the questionable lifestyle once again.
How the fuck aren't you tired
Expressing disbelief at the enduring nature of that lifestyle.
I only wanted a hug
All I sought was a simple hug.
I knew you were my drug
I was aware that you were the source of my addictive tendencies.
You killed me slow
Your influence caused a slow deterioration in me.
But now you're gone
Now, however, you are no longer present in my life.
