Reflections on the Screen
Digital Reflections: Yearning in Virtual Realms
Lyrics
It was never jealousy, just a cute hyperbole
Expressing that there was never actual jealousy, but rather an exaggerated and cute statement
Idiocracy, I dream
Referencing the concept of Idiocracy in a dreamlike context
And he's still keen to chill with me, I've zoomed in 1080p
Describing someone's eagerness to spend time together through online communication in high resolution
Your pseudo-smile is so unfree
Commenting on a forced or insincere smile observed on the screen
All this stalling, keeps me going
Highlighting a sense of delay or hesitation that provides motivation
Just recalling, you and me
Recalling memories of a past interaction between the speaker and someone else
And there's something, so affecting
Noting the emotional impact of something significant
In the reflections, on my screen
Emphasizing the emotional significance found in the reflections on the screen
This is a portfolio, the chat log's loading way too slow
Describing a digital portfolio and the slow loading of chat logs
Your good girl lingerie shows
Observing the display of intimate attire in a digital context
And she's still keen to chill with me, ditched on her master's degree
Highlighting someone's willingness to spend time together despite abandoning academic pursuits
What a drag your life must be
Expressing empathy or understanding for the perceived challenges in the other person's life
All this calling, it keeps me going
Stressing the role of communication in keeping the speaker motivated
Just recalling, you and me
Reiterating memories of past interactions between the speaker and the other person
And there's something, so affecting
Acknowledging the emotional impact of a significant connection
In the reflections, on my screen
Repeating the emotional significance found in the reflections on the screen
Without you I don't know where I'd be
Expressing uncertainty or a sense of loss without the presence of the other person
Without you I don't know where I'd be
Repeating the theme of uncertainty or loss without the other person
Without you where the hell would I be? (oh oh oh)
Intensifying the expression of not knowing where the speaker would be without the other person
Without you I don't know where I'd be
Repeating the theme of uncertainty or loss without the other person
Without you I don't know where I'd be
-Without you where the hell would I be?
Intensifying the expression of not knowing where the speaker would be without the other person
All this stalling, it keeps me going
Highlighting the role of delay or hesitation in maintaining the speaker's motivation
Just recalling, you and me
Recalling memories of a past interaction between the speaker and someone else
And there's something, so affecting
Emphasizing the emotional impact of something significant
In the reflections, on my screen
Reiterating the emotional significance found in the reflections on the screen
It makes me feel alive, sat in bed lit by the light
Describing a feeling of vitality or liveliness while sitting in bed, illuminated by light
Of a silly gif playing on repeat (repeat)
Depicting a sense of repetition and perhaps monotony in the speaker's life through a looping gif
