You're Still Standing Near Me
Echoes of Resilience: You're Still Standing Beside Me
Lyrics
There's nobody for me in this world
Feeling alone and without companionship in the world.
Forget about the light
Advising to disregard or give up on hope and positivity.
Forget about the love
Advising to let go of love and emotional attachment.
Forget about the things you have shown me
Suggesting to forget the lessons or experiences provided by someone.
There's nobody with me in this world
Reiterating a sense of isolation, emphasizing the lack of company.
Forget about the friends
Encouraging to forget about friendships and social connections.
Forget about the life
Encouraging to let go of the aspects of life that may bring joy.
Forget about the good you have done me
Encouraging to forget about the positive actions done by someone.
There were some days where I could never cry
Reflecting on days when emotions were suppressed and crying seemed impossible.
And there were days I could have died
Acknowledging the existence of challenging days where the thought of death crossed the mind.
But I try
Expressing an effort to persevere despite difficulties.
And oh, what's the point going on
Questioning the purpose of continuing if a significant event or person is delayed.
If I waited so long for you to call my name
Expressing impatience for someone to acknowledge or recognize the speaker.
There's no one else to blame
Accepting personal responsibility without blaming others.
And I can't believe I'd sing this song
Expressing disbelief at singing a song as if wronged when it's not the case.
As if you'd done me wrong
Clarifying that the person addressed did not cause harm.
No, clearly
Emphasizing the lack of wrongdoing by the addressed person.
You're still standing near me
Acknowledging the continued presence of the person near the speaker.
Nobody knows me in this world
Reiterating a sense of being unknown or misunderstood by the world.
Forget about the friends
Encouraging to forget about friendships again, emphasizing detachment.
Forget about the days
Advising to forget about specific days or events in the past.
Forget about the ways you have loved me
Suggesting to forget about the ways in which love was expressed.
There were some days where I could never cry
Recalling days when tears seemed impossible and emotions were suppressed.
And there were days I could have died
Acknowledging the existence of days when the speaker felt close to death.
But I try
Expressing an ongoing effort to persevere despite challenges.
And oh, what's the point going on
Questioning the purpose of continuing if a significant event or person is delayed (repeated theme).
If I waited so long for you to call my name
Expressing impatience for someone to acknowledge or recognize the speaker (repeated theme).
There's no one else to blame
Accepting personal responsibility without blaming others (repeated theme).
And I can't believe I'd sing this song
Expressing disbelief at singing a song as if wronged when it's not the case (repeated theme).
As if you'd done me wrong
Clarifying that the person addressed did not cause harm (repeated theme).
No, clearly
Emphasizing the lack of wrongdoing by the addressed person (repeated theme).
You're still standing near me
Acknowledging the continued presence of the person near the speaker (repeated theme).
Oh, oh, oh
Expressive repetition or conclusion of the theme of the person's ongoing proximity.
