Where the Change Is
Unveiling the Search for Change
Lyrics
Since you've been gone, I've been untrue
Expressing infidelity since the partner's departure.
Hoping that you have been untrue too
Suspecting the partner's infidelity as well.
No one wants to feel guilty
Desire to avoid guilt, a common human sentiment.
If I was the star and you were the fan
Imagining a scenario where roles are reversed in a relationship.
How could you join this one-man band
Questioning the partner's involvement in the relationship.
You don't know where it's going
Uncertainty about the direction of the relationship.
So much to learn, so little to teach
Highlighting the imbalance in knowledge and experience.
You got in touch with someone so hard to reach
Acknowledging difficulty in connecting with someone elusive.
(Now I've hurt everyone)
Regret for causing harm to others.
Now you don't know where to go
Feeling lost after a significant change in the relationship.
Well you don't know where the change is
Expressing confusion about where transformative events occur.
And all the pleasure it brings
Recognizing the positive aspects of change.
Oh, I thought you were gonna clip my wings
Anticipating a restriction or negative impact on personal freedom.
Oh, love is a powerful dream
Love portrayed as a potent and influential force in dreams.
And I woke up with a scream
Abrupt awakening from a dream, possibly a painful realization.
And I was up on a plane
Traveling, physically or metaphorically, to escape or find resolution.
With your cheap-seat memories pumping the pressure in every vein
Memories causing emotional intensity and stress.
What I say blows away
Personal statements or actions having a significant impact.
Half of the love that you had for me
Claiming a reduction in the partner's love.
No one wants to feel guilty
Reiteration of the desire to avoid guilt in relationships.
Since you've been gone, I've been untrue
Repetition of infidelity in the partner's absence.
Hoping that you have been untrue too
Continued suspicion of the partner's unfaithfulness.
(Now you've heard everything)
Confirmation that the partner has now heard everything.
But you don't know where to go
Emphasizing the uncertainty and lack of direction after a change.
Now you don't know where the change is
Reiterating the confusion about the location of transformative events.
And all the pleasure it brings
Acknowledging the positive aspects of change once again.
But I thought you were gonna clip my wings
Anticipating a negative impact on personal freedom.
Oh, love is a powerful dream
Reiteration of the influential power of love in dreams.
And we broke up with a scream
Highlighting the emotional intensity and pain of a breakup.
And I was up on a plane
Repeating the theme of travel and memories causing pressure.
With your cheap-seat memory pumping the pressure in every vein
Blank line, allowing a moment for reflection or emotional impact.
You don't know where (the change is)
Repeating the uncertainty about where the change is.
