Studio Apartment
Love Beyond Walls: Studio Apartment Chronicles
Lyrics
Since the day we moved in
Reflecting on the time since they moved in.
Times have been pretty thin
Describing a challenging period with financial difficulties.
There's nothing I can do about it
Expressing helplessness about the situation.
We don't have money to buy any drinks
Lack of funds preventing them from buying drinks.
We are the fucking non-alcoholics
Self-deprecatingly labeling themselves as non-alcoholics.
Who used to have plenty of activities
Recalling a time when they had more activities.
What's with the money they sent
Questioning the purpose or use of money received.
When was the last time you gave me some money to spend
Asking when the last time they received money was.
Light up my love I got no money but I love you sweetheart
Despite financial difficulties, expressing love and devotion.
I wouldn't call it paradise
Downplaying their current living situation as not paradise.
Sometimes you got to toss the dice
Emphasizing the unpredictability of life, requiring risk-taking.
To see what's on the other side
Exploring new possibilities and experiences.
Tough it's a tiny little flat
Describing the small size of their living space.
We don't have any physical contact
Indicating a lack of physical intimacy in the relationship.
You seem to be OK with that 'cause
Suggesting that one partner is accepting of the situation.
We'll forget the time we spent
Anticipating forgetting the past once they move to a studio apartment.
When we move to a studio apartment
Expressing a desire for a fresh start in a new living space.
We'll forget the things we said
Expecting to leave behind negative memories.
When we move to a studio apartment
Repeating the theme of forgetting past issues in a new apartment.
Would you pay the rent
Raising a question about the ability to pay rent.
Before too soon I'll be living with you in a tent
Imagining a scenario where living in a tent might be necessary.
Light up my love I got no money but I love you sweetheart
Reiterating love despite financial challenges.
Now I'm counting down the days
Counting down the days until a significant change.
Thinking of the ways they'll let us stay
Considering options for staying in their current house.
Well what more can I say
Expressing resignation or acceptance of the situation.
We are losing the house we live in
Facing the reality of losing their current residence.
Let's call it a new beginning
Labeling the situation as a new beginning.
Maybe we rushed into this
Reflecting on the possibility of rushing into their current situation.
We'll forget the time we spent
Reiterating the theme of forgetting past experiences.
