Look Out Below
Evolving Echoes of Love and Insecurity
Lyrics
Thinking of you and I
Reflecting on the relationship with someone
Can take a lifetime
Building a connection takes a significant amount of time
A lifetime
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the connection
But the only question is
Pondering whether one deserves the relationship
Do I deserve this?
Questioning personal worthiness of the connection
A preserved bliss
Describing a preserved state of happiness
But I have to warn you
Issuing a warning about complexities in the relationship
There's a little more to
Hinting at additional layers in the relationship
Changing for you
Commitment to change for the other person
I can see it in your eyes
Observing the desire for vitality in the partner
You just want to feel alive
Recognizing the partner's longing for a fulfilling life
How long have I been sitting here
Expressing the passage of time while waiting
Waiting for you to notice
Frustration at not being noticed by the partner
All the times I've devoted
Devotion and commitment expressed through time
I'll try to make it crystal clear
Commitment to clarity in communication
You and I have potential
Acknowledging the potential in the relationship
Forget about the existential
Encouraging to disregard existential concerns
I don't even know if I have anything to offer you
Uncertainty about having anything valuable to offer
Maybe in a couple year I can change for you
Hope for personal growth in the future for the partner
How long has it been I'm unsure
Reflecting on the passage of time with uncertainty
Walking in a mental prison
Metaphorical confinement in mental struggles
It's the distance from the bed to the kitchen
Highlighting the short distance to daily life struggles
How long have I been insecure
Long-lasting feelings of insecurity
Telling you I'm a headache
Admitting personal challenges and still asking for support
But I'm still asking you to please stay
Requesting the partner to stay despite difficulties
Now I'm thinking it's unfair
Recognizing the unfairness of placing pressure on the partner
To put this pressure on to you
Contemplating the possibility of staying silent for the partner's benefit
And maybe it's better if I just stay (SHH)
Suggesting that staying silent might be better (SHH)
Every other day I'll ask you
Frequent requests for assurance and certainty
For your total certainty
Seeking reassurance about the partner's commitment
Now I can see why things ended badly
Understanding why the relationship may end poorly
For me
Reflection on personal challenges leading to a difficult end
Changing can be hard
Acknowledging the difficulty of personal change
The complacent mind that I have tried to guard
Protecting a comfortable yet complacent mindset
Changing can be hard
Recognizing the challenge of changing a comfortable life
The complacent life that I have tried to guard
Guarding against disruptions to a comfortable life
