In Tears
Breaking the Silence: Unveiling the Inner Struggle in 'In Tears' by The Late Night Call
Lyrics
What kind of woman am I supposed to be
Questioning the expectations and standards for her identity as a woman.
They have a million reasons not to be free
Aware of numerous obstacles preventing freedom.
But they don't ask how I feel
Frustration that others don't inquire about her emotions.
Why are my dreams standing still
Expressing stagnation in the pursuit of her dreams.
What are my wishes while I talk
Pondering personal desires while engaging in conversation.
Let me take your hand, just for a walk
Inviting someone to join her on a symbolic journey, perhaps seeking support.
In tears and
Emotionally overwhelmed and shedding tears.
With a shaking voice
Speaking with a trembling voice, indicating inner turmoil.
I have to destroy your noise
Acknowledging the need to eliminate external disturbances or negativity.
I can't hear
Experiencing difficulty in hearing, both literally and metaphorically.
Myself anymore
Losing touch with one's own identity and voice.
This time I swear I'll break the curse
Determined to overcome a perceived curse or obstacle.
Can you hear me? Will you hear me?
Pleading for acknowledgment and understanding.
For years I lost the sound to speak up
Reflecting on a period of silence and difficulty expressing oneself.
And now I'm lost and found my way back
Finding a way back to self-discovery and expression.
It's my decision if I choose this child
Claiming the right to make personal choices, potentially related to having a child.
In this country I have the position and the right
Asserting a position and rights within a particular context or society.
One might think they would be quiet
Surprised that others aren't silent given the circumstances.
It's the wrong role that they admire
Rejecting societal expectations that she finds inappropriate.
In tears and
Reiteration of being in tears and emotionally distressed.
With a shaking voice
Continuing to speak with a trembling voice amidst challenges.
I have to destroy your noise
Reiterating the need to eliminate disruptive influences.
I can't hear
Struggling to hear oneself amid external disturbances.
Myself anymore
Reaffirming the commitment to overcoming obstacles.
This time I swear I'll break the curse
Expressing determination to break a perceived curse.
Can't hear myself
Repeating the difficulty in self-perception or self-awareness.
Anymore
Continued struggle in hearing oneself amidst challenges.
This time I swear I'll
Pledging to break the perceived curse.
Break the curse
Reiterating the commitment to overcoming obstacles.
Can you hear me, will you hear me
Pleading for understanding and acknowledgment.
Am I praying loud enough
Questioning the effectiveness of her prayers in being heard.
Can you hear me, will you hear me
Repeating the plea for being heard and understood.
Am I praying loud enough
Reiterating the uncertainty about the effectiveness of her prayers.
In tears and
Reiteration of being in tears and emotionally distressed.
With a shaking voice
Continuing to speak with a trembling voice amidst challenges.
I have to destroy your noise
Reiterating the need to eliminate disruptive influences.
I can't hear
Struggling to hear oneself amid external disturbances.
Myself anymore
Reaffirming the commitment to overcoming obstacles.
This time I swear I'll break the curse
Expressing determination to break a perceived curse.
I can't hear
Repeating the difficulty in self-perception or self-awareness.
Myself anymore
Reaffirming the commitment to overcoming obstacles.
This time I swear I'll break the curse
Expressing determination to break a perceived curse.
