Before The Afterglow
Afterglow Reflections: A Melancholic Journey Through Change
Lyrics
Give me something to stop the pain
Expressing a desire for something to alleviate emotional pain or distress.
Moments like these I feel insane
Describing moments of feeling mentally unstable or irrational.
I find to wonder through my head
Reflecting on thoughts wandering through the mind.
And I can't seem to find
Struggling to find a solution or answer in the mental exploration.
Nothing up there
Suggesting a sense of emptiness or lack of meaningful content in the mind.
I feel like it's gonna stay
Anticipating a persistent or lasting feeling of emptiness or void.
Nothing ever stays the same
Reflecting on the impermanence of things, acknowledging change.
I'm thinking of the place that has changed
Contemplating a place or situation that has undergone transformation.
Just like everything else
Noting the similarity of change to other aspects of life.
Make me go insane
Expressing a desire for a change in the current mental state.
I'm so tired I've seen it all before
Expressing fatigue and a sense of familiarity with life's experiences.
I'm kinda hopeless I've lost it all
Conveying a feeling of hopelessness and having lost everything.
The world is spinning but I feel so slow
Describing a disoriented state with the world spinning but personal experiences feeling slow.
My mind is gone and I don't even know
Expressing a sense of mental confusion and loss.
Filling the void beneath my feet
Describing a void or emptiness below, possibly emotional or existential.
The dust spins through the air
Depicting a visual of dust floating through the air.
As the sky begins to glow
Referring to the beginning of a transformative process as the sky glows.
Then it starts to clear
Indicating clarity after a period of uncertainty or change.
Why am I still here I should go
Expressing a contemplation of leaving a situation or place.
I just don't wanna see you in my afterglow
Declining the desire to see someone in a positive or transformative state.
I know I might not see you again
Acknowledging the possibility of not meeting someone again.
But that won't mean the sun won't come up again
Emphasizing the continuity of life despite potential separations.
And I know the world feels like it's going so slow
Reflecting on the perception of time moving slowly in challenging moments.
But I just don't wanna see you in my afterglow
Reiterating a reluctance to witness someone in a transformed or evolved state.
