About You
Unveiling the Emotional Tapestry: 'About You' by The Awakening
Lyrics
I hid the reason without a trace
I concealed the cause without leaving any evidence
I’m killing off time and place
I am wasting time and disregarding my surroundings
The wall never cried so hard
The emotional barrier has never shown such intense emotion
I’m tearing it all apart
I'm breaking down everything
Tearing it all apart
Reiterating the act of tearing everything apart
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Expressing a willingness to fall and compose a song inspired by someone
Oh, I don’t feel much of anything without you
Feeling a lack of emotions or sensations in the absence of the person
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Repetition of the willingness to fall and create a song about the individual
Oh, the silence is so dark here without you
Describing the darkness of silence when the person is not present
I took a bow and I changed my face
Took a bow and underwent a change in identity
I’m losing the touch and taste
Losing the ability to sense and appreciate things
Of where we had gone to try
Reflecting on the places visited together
I won’t give up tonight
Committing to not giving up on the current situation
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Reiterating the intention to fall and compose a song about the person
Oh, I don’t feel much of anything without you
Expressing a lack of significant feelings in the person's absence
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Repeating the desire to fall and create a song about the individual
Oh, the silence is so dark here without you
Highlighting the profound darkness of silence without the person
I’m not saying much I’ve said before
Acknowledging a reluctance to repeat what has been said before
Buried with the letting go
Referring to the challenges of letting go of the person
Of you
Direct reference to the person being addressed
Of you
Repetition for emphasis on the person
You
Intensifying the focus on 'you'
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Expressing the determination to fall and compose a song about the person
I don’t feel much of anything without you
Reiterating the numbness or lack of feeling without the person
Oh, I’ll fall and I’ll write a song about you
Repeating the commitment to fall and create a song about the individual
Oh, the silence is so dark here without you
Describing the profound darkness in the absence of the person
I’m not saying much I’ve said before
Reiteration of reluctance to repeat past statements
Buried with the letting go
Being buried or overwhelmed by the act of letting go
