Where The Sidewalk Ends
Echoes of Separation: Where Emotions Meet the End of the Sidewalk
Lyrics
songs of innocence play a sour tune
Songs that evoke innocence have a dissonant quality.
you tune the dial, but the static still remains
Despite trying to change, interference or disturbance persists.
we fear the silence, so let's listen to the faceless name
Fear of silence leads to embracing anonymity or emptiness.
don't swing on my emotions and play off of my actions
Caution against manipulating emotions and actions.
this isn't going to be another shot in the dark
Expressing a determination not to take blind chances.
only another step closer to seperation
Moving forward brings one closer to separation.
this isnt't going to be another shot in the dark
Reiteration of avoiding reckless actions.
i'm not going to run this race forever
Not willing to participate endlessly in a futile endeavor.
this has everything to do with what you said last night
Referencing a connection to a recent conversation.
so ride the railroad that drives the nails and write it in your diary
Metaphorical suggestion to follow a path that causes pain and record it.
because this is better than a photograph
Choosing memories over a static image.
this isn't going to be another shot in the dark
Reiteration of avoiding blind risks.
but only another step closer to seperation
Moving forward brings emotional distance.
this isn't going to be another shot in the dark
Emphasizing the avoidance of reckless actions.
remember we couldn't remember
Reflecting on forgotten memories.
it all ends here sometimes
Acknowledging the conclusion of something important.
it all ends here sometimes
Reiteration of the finality of certain experiences.
remember we couldn't remember?
Pondering the difficulty of recollection.
it all ends here sometimes
Reaffirming the end of significant aspects of life.
so let's sit back, tip the glass, and say those were the days
Nostalgic reflection on past moments with a drink in hand.
because this is where the sidewalk ends
Metaphorically, reaching the end of a familiar path.
this is where the sidewalk ends
Reiteration of reaching a significant endpoint.
you're waving your hands goodbye
Saying farewell through gestures.
please don't make me say the bitter words
Reluctance to express painful sentiments.
you're eaveing your hands goodbye
Repetition of bidding farewell through gestures.
This tears me apart...
Expressing emotional pain caused by parting.
Goodbye x 5
Repetition of the farewell, emphasizing the difficulty.
