Cleopatra
Embracing Tomorrow: A Journey Through Life's Turmoil
Lyrics
I lie in my bed as the room starts spinning
Feeling disoriented and possibly overwhelmed in bed
A bottle of wine, is this what they call living?
Questioning if living involves just consuming alcohol
I read the news today as they spoke about the end of the world
Engaging with news about an impending end of the world
Reality's giving me headaches
Real-life is causing stress and distress
And the apocalypse starts with a handshake
Suggesting that major disasters start subtly
I'll be fine if you stay by my side, I'm sure it gets better with time
Optimism about improvement with support
But don't be afraid
Encouragement not to fear the uncertain future
We might be gone tomorrow
Acknowledging the transient nature of existence
You cast a shadow with your footsteps
Symbolic representation of someone's presence
Countless nights on my front porch step
Sharing numerous nights together
Oh tell me, is this wrong?
Questioning the morality or rightness of a situation
When our nights starts wearing thin
Anticipation of separation or departure
You'll go back to shedding skin
Metaphorical change or transformation
And nothing could ever remain the same
Highlighting the inevitability of change
I caught your eyelash, you made a wish
Symbolic act of making a wish for a brighter future
For things to look brighter than this
Offering emotional support and reassurance
I'll run my fingers through your hair, make sure we're mentally prepared
Preparing mentally for potential difficulties
It's hard to say if the morning will come
Uncertainty about the future
If it's our last chance to look at the sun
Possibly the last opportunity to appreciate life
The way that things are turning out, you'll be the last thing I sing about
Expressing the significance of a person in the singer's life
You cast a shadow with your footsteps
Reiteration of the symbolic presence of someone
Countless nights on my front porch step
Repetition of spending nights together
Oh tell me, is this wrong?
Reiteration of moral questioning
When our nights starts wearing thin
Anticipation of change or separation
You'll go back to shedding skin
Metaphorical shedding of old identity or habits
And nothing could ever remain the same
Emphasis on the inevitability of change
I think you see things through your rose-coloured glasses
Perceiving things optimistically
And I envy you for that
Admiration and envy for someone's positive outlook
I'm losing sight of you the more the Earth spins around its axis
Feeling disconnected from someone due to life's chaos
And I can't blame you for the things that we've left in the past
Acknowledging shared responsibility for past events
You cast a shadow with your footsteps
Symbolic representation of a person's impact
Countless nights on my front porch step
Repetition of spending nights together
Oh tell me, is this wrong?
Reiteration of moral questioning
When our nights starts wearing thin
Anticipation of change or separation
You'll go back to shedding skin
Metaphorical shedding of old identity or habits
And nothing could ever remain the same
Emphasis on the inevitability of change
