Surprise Me
Unveiling the Shadows: The Hidden Journey in 'Surprise Me' by The Beloved
Lyrics
Believe when I say that it has to be true
Expressing a belief in the truth of a statement.
So much to say, so little to do
Feeling overwhelmed with a lot to communicate but limited actions.
I know, I know, I know you
Acknowledging familiarity or understanding of someone.
The room's growing cold as the evening grows long
Describing a physical and emotional cooling in the environment.
See in your eyes something is wrong
Sensing a problem or discomfort through observation of the other person's eyes.
I know, I know, I know you
Reiterating knowledge or familiarity with the person.
so where do you go at the end of the day?
Pondering where the person goes at the end of the day.
Where do you hide away?
Asking about the person's hiding place.
age has a way of pretending to see
Reflecting on the deceptive nature of age in perceiving our true desires.
Right to the core of what we want to be
Penetrating to the core of personal aspirations.
But I know, I know, I know me
Self-awareness and understanding of one's identity.
And I've lost all interest in matters of worth
Loss of interest in matters of value or significance.
Old again, wise again, born again, no constancy
Expressing a cyclical experience of aging and wisdom.
Oh but I know me
Confidence in self-awareness despite changes.
so where do you go at the end of the day?
Repeating the inquiry about the person's destination at day's end.
Where do you go when you seem so far away?
Wondering where the person goes when distant emotionally.
Tell me what happened to the promises that we made
Questioning the disappearance of shared promises.
Where do you hide away?
Reiterating the query about the person's hiding place.
so tell me where do you go at the end of the day?
Repeating the question about the person's destination at day's end.
Where do you go when you seem so far away?
Emphasizing the emotional distance and seeking a response.
What happened to the promises that you made?
Questioning the unfulfilled commitments made by the person.
Where do you hide away?
Reiterating the inquiry about the person's hiding place.
