All The Things, All The Crazy Things
Unraveling Love's Illusions: The Door Stoppers' Journey
Lyrics
So, before you go, can you say the reasons why
Expressing a desire for the person leaving to provide reasons for their departure.
You're leaving me, I wanna be free from you girl you see
Wanting freedom from the relationship and seeking clarity from the departing person.
I saw the clocks not turning then I thought, what am I
Reflecting on a moment of confusion or existential questioning, possibly triggered by the sight of unmoving clocks.
Doing here, I wanna disappear from this world girl
Expressing a strong desire to escape from the world or current situation.
Calling me "baby" but you don't know that I know
Noting that the person addresses them affectionately ("baby") without realizing the speaker is aware of certain actions or information.
All the things you're doing, all the crazy things that you say to me
Highlighting the disconnect between the person's actions and the speaker's perception, emphasizing the perceived craziness.
Isn't true
Denying the truthfulness of the actions and words directed at the speaker.
I don't wanna waste my time if I can't really call you mine
Expressing a reluctance to invest time in the relationship if a genuine commitment cannot be established.
There's some things that I can't get
Acknowledging certain things that remain elusive or unattainable.
And one of them is you
Specifying that one of those elusive things is the person addressed in the lyrics.
I'm looking under a bridge then I saw a slithering
Describing a visual encounter with a snake under a bridge, possibly symbolizing danger or deceit.
Snake on the rails of the bridge then I ran away
Reacting to the presence of the snake and choosing to avoid potential harm.
Then I bumped my head, shattered my face, broke my leg then this
Recounting a series of unfortunate events involving injury and an unexpected encounter with a dog.
Dog peed on my face, it's not my day, but you're happy (are you happy?)
Despite personal misfortune, noting that the departing person seems happy.
Calling me "baby" but you don't know that I know
Reiterating the awareness of the person's endearments ("baby") and the speaker's understanding of their actions.
All the things you're doing, all the crazy things that you say to me
Emphasizing the perceived craziness in the person's behavior and communication.
Isn't true
Affirming the lack of truth in the person's actions and words towards the speaker.
I don't wanna waste my time if I can't really call you mine
Repeating the reluctance to invest time in the relationship without genuine commitment.
There's some things that I can't get
Reiterating the existence of certain elusive things in life.
And one of them is you
Stating that one of those elusive things is the person being addressed.
Calling me "baby" but you don't know that I know
Reaffirming the awareness of the person's endearments ("baby") and the speaker's understanding of their actions.
All the things you're doing, all the crazy things that you say to me
Reemphasizing the perceived craziness in the person's behavior and communication.
Isn't true
Affirming the lack of truth in the person's actions and words towards the speaker.
I don't wanna waste my time if I can't really call you mine
Reiterating the reluctance to invest time in the relationship without genuine commitment.
There's some things that I can't get
Reiterating the existence of certain elusive things in life.
And one of them is you
Stating that one of those elusive things is the person being addressed.
