Lyrics

you're looking down

You are observing from above.

I'm reaching out

I am extending my reach towards you.

if only I could see it like you do

Expressing a desire to perceive things as you do.


aerial view

An overview or perspective from a distance.

from me to you

Connection or communication between us.

separate the memory from the truth

Distinguishing between memories and actuality.


now that I can look back

Reflecting on the past.

lost by the way

Feeling lost along the way.

you didn't take your time with me

You didn't invest enough time in our relationship.


now that I can look back

Looking back on past experiences.

come face to face

Confronting and coming face to face with someone.

with who you said I'd never be

Facing the person I was told I would never become.

(only underneath)

Implicit reference to hidden aspects underneath the surface.


and now I am remembering

Recalling memories with a newfound understanding.

as if I had the wherewithal

Recalling events as if possessing the wisdom to comprehend them.


in the midst of something new

In the midst of a new experience or situation.

what was lost it's up to you

The responsibility of what was lost lies with you.

thought I would live

Anticipated living and breathing anew.

thought I would breathe you new

Expected renewal through your influence.

breathe you new

Anticipation of a renewed life.
