Underlying Pain
Eternal Echoes: Unveiling the Depths of Emotion in 'Underlying Pain' by Tom Jenkins
Lyrics
There is a feeling that lasts forever
Expressing a lasting emotion or sensation
it's like an underlying pain
Describing a persistent, underlying pain
and on the long drive north i told you
Narrating a conversation during a long drive north
Don't you ever feel the shame
Advising against feeling shame
Don't you hide, those tears from your eyes
Encouraging openness and not hiding tears
don't you hide those tears, from your eyes
Reiterating the importance of not concealing tears
On the day that he left you
Recalling an event when someone left
you drew a picture for his wall
Creating a visual memory with a drawn picture
and if i knew you as a child back then
Suggesting familiarity with the person as a child
then i'd hold you through it all
Expressing a desire to provide support
don't you hide, those tears from your eyes
Repeating the call to avoid hiding tears
don't you hide those tears from your eyes
Emphasizing the importance of emotional expression
And it's hard to meet you
Describing difficulty in meeting the person
and it's hard to greet you
Highlighting challenges in greeting the person
and i must defeat you
Expressing a determination to overcome difficulties
will my all and everything
Pledging commitment with one's all and everything
or cry
Presenting a choice between determination or crying
And we want whole life, a one complete and of perfection
Expressing a desire for a complete and perfect life
And We'll live forever in a world of peace and with gods so clever
Envisioning eternal life in a peaceful world with clever gods
And we'll be so happy, with all our money we'll kill depression
Anticipating happiness, wealth, and the defeat of depression
And we'll have a party, and different people will come together
Imagining a celebratory gathering of diverse people
And we want whole life, a one complete and of perfection
Repeating the desire for a complete and perfect life
And We'll live forever in a world of peace and with gods so clever
Reiterating the vision of eternal life and clever gods
And we'll be so happy, with all our money we'll kill depression
Echoing the anticipation of happiness and overcoming depression with wealth
And we want whole life, a one complete and of perfection
Restating the aspiration for a complete and perfect life
and love
Concluding with a mention of love
