Where You're From
Rediscovering Roots: A Melodic Journey Through Memories
Lyrics
Playing it over inside of my head
Reflecting on past events internally.
Working to rewrite for the things left unsaid
Working to express things that were not communicated before.
Tonight there's no sleeping inside this cold bed
Unable to sleep in a cold bed tonight.
Guess I'll sing instead
Choosing to sing as an alternative expression.
My pride was an actor that took center stage
Acknowledging the role of pride as a prominent influence.
Without realizing the part that he played
Realizing the unintended impact of pride.
Was ushering slowly the final bow
Pride leading to a slow conclusion or ending.
Keeping me lonely, apart from the crowd
Feeling lonely and separated from others.
Can we start again?
Expressing a desire to start anew.
Start again when all I knew was where you're from and your first name
Longing for a time when only the basics mattered.
Before these empty words
Before meaningless or insincere words entered the relationship.
Empty words were yet unspoken and your heart was still unbroken
Recalling a time when words were genuine and hearts were whole.
Girl I can't move on til I find a home
Unable to move on without finding closure.
For all of the memories that I'll never own
Seeking a place for memories that were never experienced.
The life that you wanted and what could have been
Reflecting on the life that could have been.
The message I wrote you but never could send
Unsent messages representing unexpressed feelings.
Can we start again?
Expressing a desire to restart the relationship.
Start again when all I knew was where you're from and your first name
Longing for a simpler time with basic knowledge about the partner.
Before these empty words
Before insincere words entered the relationship.
Empty words were yet unspoken and your heart was still unbroken
Recalling a time when words were genuine and hearts were whole.
Oh can we start again?
Expressing a strong desire to start anew.
Start again when all I knew was where you're from and your first name
Longing for a simpler time with basic knowledge about the partner.
Before these empty words
Before insincere words entered the relationship.
Empty words were yet unspoken and your heart was still unbroken
Recalling a time when words were genuine and hearts were whole.
Still unbroken
Emphasizing that the heart is still intact despite challenges.
Can we start again?
Expressing a desire to start anew.
Start again when all I knew was where you're from and your first name
Longing for a time when only the basics mattered.
Before these empty words
Before meaningless or insincere words entered the relationship.
Empty words were yet unspoken and your heart was still unbroken
Recalling a time when words were genuine and hearts were whole.
Still unbroken
Emphasizing that the heart is still intact despite challenges.
