Lyrics

She doesn't look, she doesn't see

She is oblivious and indifferent, not observing or acknowledging.

Opens up for nobody

She keeps herself closed off emotionally and socially.

Figures out, she figures out

She understands things, solves problems, but also realizes certain truths.

Narrow line, she can't decide

Struggling with a dilemma, she is caught between choices.

Everything short of suicide

She has experienced intense emotional pain but stopped short of taking extreme measures.

Never hurts, nearly works

Actions or strategies almost work, avoiding significant harm.


Something scratching its way out

An inner turmoil or suppressed emotion is struggling to surface.

Something you want to forget about

There's something painful that one wishes to erase from memory.


A part of you that'll never show

There's a hidden aspect of oneself that remains concealed from others.

You're the only one that'll ever know

The speaker holds a secret that only they know and share with themselves.

Take it back when it all began

Reflecting on the past, retracing steps to the beginning.

Take your time, would you understand

Take your time to comprehend the origin and history.

What it's all about?

Seeking understanding of the essence and purpose of it all.


Something scratching its way out

Reiteration of inner turmoil or a suppressed, troubling emotion.

Something you want to forget about

There's a desire to forget something painful or distressing.

No one expects you to get up

There's no expectation for the person to overcome challenges alone.

All on your own with no one around

Facing difficulties without support, isolated.
