Where Are We
Unraveling Life's Puzzle: A Poetic Journey
Lyrics
It's like a soccer match
Compares the situation to a soccer match, possibly implying the back-and-forth nature of events.
Back and forth across the pitch
Describes the movement back and forth, likening it to actions on a soccer field.
A pendulum of sorrow
Portrays a swinging feeling of sadness or distress.
But all you do is bitch
Criticizes someone for complaining without taking action.
On the outside looking in
Feeling excluded but still observing.
But encased in broken glass
Feeling trapped or isolated, unable to connect with the outside.
For display purpose only
Metaphorically feeling displayed or exposed but not understood.
But this my friend will pass
Assurance that the situation will eventually change.
I do not speak the language
Difficulty in understanding the emotions or situation.
I will never understand
Expresses perpetual inability to comprehend.
What's the message you're conveying?
Asking for a demonstration or clarification of the message.
Can you show me with your hands?
Requesting a physical demonstration of emotions or feelings.
What's the sign for sadness?
Asking for a gesture representing sadness.
Do all the colors make one black?
Questioning if all emotions ultimately lead to a similar feeling.
And why the need for questions
Challenging the need for incessant questioning or doubts.
Kill the pop ups with a hack
Metaphorically suggesting a way to overcome intrusive thoughts or doubts.
Life without a net… and
Living without a safety net or security.
I'm living like a pet… and
Feeling constrained or controlled, akin to a pet.
I'm always deep in debt…
Constantly feeling indebted or owing something.
Are we fucking there yet?
Expressing impatience or frustration about reaching a desired state.
Sad shit is for suckers
Dismisses sorrow or sadness as something for weak individuals.
So the old man use to say
Quoting an old person's cynical viewpoint about people.
Everyone's a fucker
Suggests people are self-centered until they face consequences.
Until it's time to pay
People change their demeanor when confronted with responsibilities.
Then they'll sing a skippy tune
Describes a sudden change in behavior, from somber to cheerful.
And will whistle like a bird
Metaphorically implying a futile attempt at being heard.
You can howl loud at the moon
Expresses frustration at not being acknowledged or understood.
But your voice is never heard
Feeling unheard despite trying to communicate loudly.
No one listens anymore
General sentiment about people's lack of attention or interest.
Are you listening right now?
Questioning the listener's attention in the moment.
I can tell by your expression
Assuming understanding based on facial expression but unsure.
But I don't know just how
Expressing uncertainty about true comprehension.
No one listens anymore
Reiteration of the feeling of being unheard or ignored.
Are you listening right now?
Repeated questioning of the listener's attention.
I can tell by your expression
Similar to line 31, assessing comprehension from expression.
But I don't know just how
Reiterating uncertainty about true understanding.
I don't know just how
Emphasizes the lack of clarity or certainty.
Across the river I will wait
Metaphorically waiting for something uncertain across a barrier.
For that's where we last were
Reflecting on a past location or state, waiting for resolution.
I'm waiting to be saved
Waiting for salvation from an unclear threat or problem.
But from what is just a blur
Unclear about the source of the need for salvation.
Thanks for being here
Expressing gratitude for companionship in uncertainty.
Where we are, I'm not quite sure
Feeling disoriented about the present location or situation.
But I'm really glad we came
Expressing appreciation for the journey despite uncertainty.
I might finally find secure…
Hope for finding stability or safety in the current uncertain state.
