I Felt It Too
Embracing Shadows: A Journey Through Urban Solitude
Lyrics
We stand still and solid as a stone
We are standing still and solid, unyielding like a stone.
That massive, gleaming skyline swallowed us whole
The impressive and shining city skyline overwhelmed and consumed us completely.
Whole
Reiteration of the overwhelming feeling of being consumed.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Acknowledging exhaustion and weariness.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Repetition emphasizing shared fatigue.
I couldn't help it
Both individuals couldn't control or prevent the situation.
Neither could you
Highlighting the inability of both parties to influence the situation.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Reiteration of the shared feeling of tiredness.
I felt sick to my stomach
Expressing a deep emotional reaction, possibly nausea.
Lord don't let them die
An appeal to a higher power to prevent a negative outcome or loss.
We were lost in that moment
Being emotionally lost or overwhelmed in a particular moment.
Swallowed us whole
Repetition of the idea that the overwhelming situation engulfed them.
Whole
Reiteration of the complete engulfment in the moment.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Reaffirmation of understanding and sharing the feeling of tiredness.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Repetition for emphasis on mutual fatigue.
I couldn't help it
Both parties couldn't avoid or change the situation.
Neither could you
Highlighting the shared inability to influence the circumstances.
I know you're tired, I feel it too
Reiteration of the recognition of shared tiredness.
I felt so small still I couldn't look away
Feeling insignificant yet unable to avert one's gaze from the situation.
And I had nothing to say
Experiencing a lack of words or expression in the given moment.
A second to myself, oh I lost my place
A moment of self-reflection or solitude disrupted, resulting in disorientation.
And I hope you didn't notice
Hoping that the disorientation went unnoticed by others.
I'm never going back there
A strong declaration of not returning to a certain place or state.
I'm never going back there
Repetition for emphasis on the decision not to return.
I'm never going back there
Continued emphasis on the resolute decision of not going back.
I'm never going back there
Reaffirmation of the commitment to avoid returning.
I felt so small still I couldn't look away
Recurrence of the feeling of smallness and inability to look away.
And I had nothing to say
Continued struggle to find words or expression in a given moment.
A second to myself, oh I lost my place
A moment of self-reflection or solitude disrupted, resulting in disorientation.
And I hope you didn't notice
Hoping that the disorientation went unnoticed by others.
I'm never going back there
Reiteration of the strong decision not to revisit a certain place or state.
I'm never going back there
Repetition for emphasis on the decision not to return.
I'm never going back there
Continued emphasis on the resolute decision of not going back.
I'm never going back there
Reaffirmation of the commitment to avoid returning.
I felt so small still I couldn't look away
Recurrence of the feeling of smallness and inability to look away.
And I had nothing to say
Continued struggle to find words or expression in a given moment.
A second to myself, oh I lost my place
A moment of self-reflection or solitude disrupted, resulting in disorientation.
And I hope you didn't notice
Hoping that the disorientation went unnoticed by others.
