Lyrics
Hold me closer than you usually do
Expressing a desire for increased emotional closeness
'Cause I do know where else to be
Feeling lost or without direction in life
Tell me something that don't make me blue
Request for comforting and positive information
Just for once can we agree
Seeking agreement or understanding for a change
I started thinking that none of us really know why
Contemplating the lack of understanding about life's purpose
We despise each others company, God knows that we have tried
Acknowledging difficulties in getting along with others
We spend the evenings watching as the hours go by
Passing time together without a clear purpose
Is it better to be all alone
Questioning the value of solitude versus companionship
Will we see eye to eye when we die
Pondering if unity will be achieved in the afterlife
We'll never see each others point of view
Recognizing the challenge of understanding differing perspectives
Hard to do while on your knees
Difficulty empathizing while facing challenges
Please say something that reminds me of you
Seeking a connection through shared memories or words
Just for once can we be free
Desire for a moment of liberation or emotional release
I started thinking that none of us really know why
Reflecting on the shared experience of suffering
We share the misery of being, God knows that we have tried
Expressing the ongoing attempt to cope with life's challenges
We spend the days watching as the years keep passing by
Observing the passage of time and its impact on life
Is it better to be all alone
Questioning the trade-off between solitude and companionship
Will we see eye to eye when we die
Wondering if understanding will come in the afterlife
Aah, I saw her heart break
Witnessing heartbreak in someone else
Nothing's gonna bring her back
Acceptance that nothing can reverse the pain
Oh, I can see it in her eyes
Perceiving emotional distress through someone's eyes
Oh, I keep telling myself lies
Engaging in self-deception or denial of painful truths
I started thinking that none of us really know why
Continuing to question the purpose of interpersonal struggles
We keep on doing this to each other, God knows how long we've tried
Acknowledging the persistent cycle of relational challenges
We spend the years watching as our lives keep passing by
Observing life progressing amid ongoing difficulties
Is it better to be all alone
Revisiting the dilemma of solitude versus companionship
Will we see eye to eye
Posing the question of mutual understanding in life
We see eye to eye
Affirming a current connection or understanding
Will we see eye to eye when we die
Repeating the question of unity in the afterlife
