Lyrics
another try at a morning
Attempting to start a new day
coffee and cinnamon
Enjoying coffee with a hint of cinnamon
some minor happenings
Experiencing minor events or incidents
the fire on the TV is roaring
Watching a lively fire on the TV
but It's not warmer yet
Despite the fire, the atmosphere is not warmer
I can still see my breath
Visible breath suggests a cold environment
But you're there
Addressing the presence of someone special
swimming in the pothos
Describing the person being immersed in a pothos plant
bright, and green
Depicting the pothos as vibrant and green
and painting with the peels of a tangerine
Illustrating artistic activity with tangerine peels
the light begins to fall so perfectly
Noting the beauty of light as it diminishes
some days this place is the whole world
Suggesting the place has profound significance at times
some days nothing hurts
Some days are painless and peaceful
a pocket universe
Describing the place as a small, contained universe
and when I close in on myself
Referring to introspection or withdrawal into oneself
you won't let me pull the pin
Someone preventing the speaker from giving up or surrendering
your light keeps getting in
The person's positive influence persists
and you're there
Reiteration of the special person's presence
swimming in the pothos
Repeating the image of immersion in the pothos
bright, and green
Reiterating the vibrancy and greenness of the pothos
and painting with the peels of a tangerine
Continuing the artistic imagery with tangerine peels
the light begins to fall so perfectly
Repeating the observation of the beauty of diminishing light
