Lyrics
Moving around on your own and you're bloated
Moving around alone while feeling swollen or burdened.
Trying to walk out your door but you're loaded
Attempting to leave your home, but hindered by being intoxicated or overwhelmed.
I feel the words you hear
Sensing the words you are exposed to.
I climb the walls you build
Scaling the emotional barriers that have been constructed.
You hide the truth with lies
Concealing the truth with falsehoods.
I'll miss these long goodbyes
Expressing a sentiment of missing prolonged farewells.
Who will you know when you're old and autumn's grey?
Pondering who will be familiar with you in old age when life becomes somber.
Who will hold you when all the seasons change?
Questioning who will provide support through life's changing seasons.
Feeling alone and you long to be petted
Feeling isolated and desiring affection.
All of your presence so decayed and empty
Noticing the deterioration and emptiness in your presence.
I'll take the time we've had
Valuing the time spent together.
Seal it and hold it back
Securing and holding back the emotional experiences.
I'll heal the break you feel
Addressing and healing the emotional pain.
I'll take this time for real
Committing to genuine and meaningful moments.
Who will you know when you're old and autumn's grey?
Reflecting on who will recognize you in old age during the autumn of life.
Who will hold you when all the seasons change?
Contemplating who will be there for you through life's inevitable changes.
Save your life
Urging to preserve life.
Say goodbye
Expressing farewell.
Take the time
Encouraging to take the time to acknowledge emotions.
To paint your face with cries
Advising to express inner pain.
Who will know you when you're old and autumn's grey?
Pondering who will truly know you in old age during autumn.
Who will hold you when the the seasons change?
Questioning who will provide support during the changes in life's seasons.
