How I Miss The Sun
Embracing Growth Amidst Shadows
Lyrics
The dog barked all night, fight for attention
The dog's constant barking signifies a struggle for attention.
The books on my shelf are half read
The books on the shelf are only partially read, indicating unfinished tasks or knowledge.
People say a cruel joke at your expense
Experiencing the pain of others making cruel jokes at one's expense.
Words flying in the air, some you'll catch
Words are spoken, and some impact is felt, suggesting the selective influence of spoken words.
Oh, how I miss the sun
Expressing a longing for the warmth and positivity represented by the sun.
So many things left undone
A sense of regret for unfinished tasks or unfulfilled ambitions.
Strangers turn into friends, drive down a mountain road in a van
Meeting new people who become friends, embarking on a journey down a mountain road in a van.
The mason jar on my desk
A mason jar on the desk symbolizing memories from both warm and cold moments.
from all the warm mornings and cold coffee
Reflection on past experiences, feeling a stiffness in the chest related to dreams.
Feel stiff in my chest about what I dreamt
Fear or hesitation to express genuine feelings.
Too scared to say what I meant
Acknowledging that the listener likely understood the unspoken intention.
But I think you knew my intent
A determination to move forward despite past difficulties.
Headstrong, moving on, used to be so hard
Recalling a time when moving on used to be challenging.
Had the weight of the world as a little girl
Remembering the burdens carried as a child.
If only she could see me now
A desire for someone from the past to witness the present self.
Gasping for air, planning for hours to go nowhere
Feeling suffocated, spending time planning without tangible outcomes.
A triumphant ending when the sky's finally clear
Anticipating a triumphant resolution when challenges dissipate.
The shape of the world, Denver dear
Referencing the world's shape, perhaps alluding to the challenges faced in a specific location like Denver.
Oh, I am good right here
Expressing contentment and satisfaction with the current situation.
This sun will be back next year
Optimism for the return of positive experiences represented by the sun in the future.
Headstrong, moving on, used to be so hard
Reiteration of the strength to move forward despite challenges.
Had the weight of the world as a little girl
Recollection of childhood burdens and struggles.
If only she could see me
Reflecting on how the current self might be perceived by someone from the past.
Headstrong, moving on, used to be so hard
Emphasizing the past difficulty of moving forward despite challenges.
Had the weight of the world as a little girl
Recalling the weight of childhood burdens and struggles.
If only she could see me now.
Expressing a wish for someone from the past to witness the present strength and resilience.
